Re: [R] R Graphics: Saving PDF and other formats from Windows Graphic Device for LaTeX
pdf(sgr6100.pdf, horizontal=FALSE, onefile=FALSE,
height=3, width=3, pointsize=6)
Reducing point-size below 6 does not seem to make any difference to
the size of text and symbols. Any suggestions to get smaller font sizes?
I have never used the pointsize option. Increasing the height and the
width decreases the relative size of the font so if you scale down the
figure in LaTeX you would get smaller fonts.
I am using WinEdt with MikTeX set-up.
as well do I ...
Latex complains about the [scale...] part for any scale in
\includegraphics[scale=1]{}
A scale of one does not make any sense since it is 100% or with other
words you could leave that out.
If you want to scale the figure to the text width you could write
\begin{figure}
\includegraphic[width=\textwidth]{sgr6100.pdf }
\end{figure}
btw. I use the postscript device to produce an eps file and dvipdfm to
convert the dvi to pdf
postscript(sgr6100.eps, width = 6, height = 6, horizontal = FALSE,
onefile =T, paper=special)
and then in LaTeX:
\begin{figure}
\includegraphic[width=\textwidth]{sgr6100}
\end{figure}
and pauses. Suggestions will be appreciated about what is the best way to
scale
R graphics for inclusion in LaTeX.
see above.
Have a look at a good LaTeX guide like lshort

(e.g. p.73/73)

As a point of interest, the newer Windows versions of vTeX (by MicroPress) will do this (in both directions) with PDF. This is a commercial TeX distribution with value added. They have a free distribution suitable for Unix or Linux, but I doubt that it does that particular trick. -- Mike Prager, NOAA, Beaufort, NC * Opinions expressed are personal and not represented otherwise. * Any use of tradenames does not constitute a NOAA endorsement. __ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
[R] R Graphics: Saving PDF and other formats from Windows Graphic Device for LaTeX
Hello, I can't seem to save (or find the default location) when I use the Window Graphic Device's pull down menu. It does not seem to save to the directory I have set using setwd(...). How do I make the pull down menu's work? What is the best format to save R graphics for inclusion into a LaTeX documents? I will use PdfTex, or LaTeX - PS - PsToPdf to generate the final PDF file. Which is likely to give the best graphics quality in the final PDF document? The final graphs will be about 3x3 inch (fit in a column in two-column format). I will be grateful if someone can share their experience.

Depending on your Latex setup, sometimes only one or the other will be supported.
