In my humble opinion, in the sentence "Arguments to the 'device' function above", it is not clear to what "the 'device' function above" refers because 'device' is an argument in the text above this sentence. Therefore, I think it's difficult to understand which are the possible arguments for the copy2eps function. > For 'dev.copy2eps', 'width' and 'height' are taken from the > current device unless otherwise specified.

Maybe all arguments valid for the postscript device are allowed for the copy2eps function but it is still not clear to me.
