I recently wrote a package that runs on both Linux and Windows.
The functions fetch data to an SQL database and make diverse plots, usually with many labels and annotations.
I recently noticed that on SOME windows computers the fonts in the plots were too large, which caused labels to overlap.
On other windows computers this does not happen. However on both computers the command par("ps") gives 12
Now, windows is not my forte, but it seems likely that this has to do with some user/system settings. If so, my users would probably object to me tweaking their windows setup since it might have an effect on other programs.
One simple solution is to use par(ps=10), but I cannot find out how to set this globally.
All this depends on the device. Which device are we talking about?
a) Does anyone know how I can set par(ps=10) by default on all figure?
For the postscript device see ?ps.options.
b) Is there a windows specific way to set default fontsizes in figures?
No. But you might want to read the second paragraph in ?windows if we are talking about this device.
