You might need to install ghostscript before it works on your system but the results are super. I use bitmap(blah, type = "png256", res = 1200) to make *.png files which are small and can be inserted in to an MS Word manuscript for review. When a TIFF is needed by the journal, bitmap(blah, type = "tifflzw", res = 1200) will do the trick. (If a color plot is being created, you can use something like type = "tiff24nc". The color files are huge but can be zipped to something reasonable.)
