On Windows, all bitmap devices (bmp(), jpeg(), png(), tiff()) will give better-looking (anti-aliased) pictures with type = "cairo" instead of type = "windows". On Linux, type = "cairo" also produces better-looking bitmaps than type = "Xlib". On macOS, type = "cairo" and type = "quartz" should produce bitmaps of similar (good) quality. -- Best regards, Ivan ______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide https://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
