Don't feel alone Cézar; I have had the same problems getting par commands to work when making *.pdf files. I also run R 2.0.1 and use par() after opening the device. Sometimes, the par() commands work; sometimes it opens a new windows device. Maybe something with MS Windows is causing this.
Which version of Windows (I assume NT, 2k or XP; each with latest Service Pack), which version of R (I assume R-2.0.1)?
Please start R with --vanilla and tell us exactly the sequence of calls until this happens, if it is reproducible in any way...

Subject: Re: [R] short plots: lwd, margin and postscript behavior
Thank you so much, but the commands in par doesn't affect the pictures generated by postscript. For example, I put lwd=3, and the postscript file is the same, using par(lwd=3) or par(lwd=.5)...

It does in R-2.0.1!!! Please try out what poeple are suggesting! You have to set par() for the current device, so after your call to postscript, as I have indicated below.
