I have used R in the past to generate two outputs for a given graph,
one PNG and one PDF from a source block in my Org file.
Then immediately under the source block I would put a commented out
file link so that Org's inline image display would show it to me. Then
I used the latex include command beneath to include the PDF for the
final output.
This let me preview and have high quality output.
Sample code:
#+BEGIN_SRC R :session *R-Buffer* :tangle myfile.R :exports none :results none
silent :var basename="playerAging"
doublePlot = function (base, plotFunc,
pngopts = c( width = 1024, height = 500 ),
pdfopts = c( width = 10, height = 7.5, paper =
'usr')
) {
# basename from org-babel
myPng = paste(base,"png",sep=".")
myPdf = paste(base,"pdf",sep=".")
png(myPng, pngopts )
plotFunc()
dev.off()
pdf(myPdf, pdfopts)
plotFunc()
dev.off()
}
doublePlot(base=basename, plotFunc = function() {
plot(players$last_save,players$age,main="Player Age vs Last Login")
grid(col="gray",lty=2)
})
#+END_SRC
# [[file:playerAging.png]]
#+LATEX: \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{playerAging.pdf}\newpage
