Thanks for pointing that out, baptiste. No need to use windows(). Width and height should be specified in pdf(). On Mon, May 17, 2010 at 3:28 PM, baptiste auguie wrote: > No, that's only true for lattice and ggplot2 graphics. The problem > here is with this line, > > windows(width=5, height=5) >

one way: x <- rnorm(100) y <- x+rnorm(100) par(mfrow=c(2,2)) # this sets up the graphics window to expect a 2x2 layout plot(x,y) boxplot(x,y,names=c("var1","var2")) hist(x) hist(y) mtext("fourplots on same page",side=3,outer=T,line=-1.5) and you can adjust as needed to put more or less plots o

No, that's only true for lattice and ggplot2 graphics. The problem here is with this line, windows(width=5, height=5) which shouldn't be there. HTH, baptiste On 17 May 2010 22:23, Jun Shen wrote: > If you do plotting in a loop, then you need to print it to the device. > > print(plot(xj,y)) >

If you do plotting in a loop, then you need to print it to the device. print(plot(xj,y)) On Mon, May 17, 2010 at 3:02 PM, Shirley Bao wrote: > Thanks! > I got an error message when opening the pdf file: "There was an error > opening this document. This file cannot be opened because it has no pag

Thanks! I got an error message when opening the pdf file: "There was an error opening this document. This file cannot be opened because it has no pages." Here is what I did in plotting and saving the file: pdf(file="C:/figure.pdf") for (j in 1:numColumns) { windows(width=5, height=5) plot(xj,y)

1.Open pdf device >pdf() 2.Do your plotting as many as you want, you won't see the plots on the screen because they go directly to the pdf() device. 3.Turn off the pdf() >dev.off() Then you can review your plots in the pdf file. For more details see ?pdf Jun On Mon, May 17, 2010 at 2:41 PM, Shirl
