Dear R List
Could I ask again my question about where the size of a plot should be
specified (in par or pdf?). I still did not figure out, and any help
would be much appreciated!!
Thanks a lot!

Hi
I want to have a rectangular plot
It should be specified in pdf() as you did. If you try
pdf(try.pdf, height=2, width=2)
par(pin=c(0.5, 0.3),mai=rep(0.1,4), omi=rep(0.01,4), mar=c(5,4,4,2))
plot(runif(100))
dev.off()
I think the problem will become apparent.

Dear Ista
Thanks a lot for your help! However, when I spedify the right size I
wish (the same as specified in par() ) I get an error:
pdf(try.pdf, height=0.5, width=0.3)
par(pin=c(0.5, 0.3),mai=rep(0.1,4), omi=rep(0.01,4), mar=c(5,4,4,2))
plot(runif(100))
dev.off()
I don't see why my

Thanks Mark!
But how does the resulting plot look like on your machine? For me, it is
terrible... I tried then removing the mai par (to 0.01), and then got
huge circles... It looks like there are many more parameters, I changed
then cex, got better but still many adjustments... seems a
Matthieu,
A couple of points that you may be misunderstanding:
1.
your 'mar' setting overwrites the 'mai' setting;
use one or the other.
2.
pdf(width=0.5, height=0.3) sets the *device* region
dimensions, not the *plot* region. The thing to
remember is that device contains figure contains plot.
