I have produced a series of graphs with the png command, however when I have 
finally printed these out the black text appears to have a colour shadow with 
blue or red on either side of the letter.
I tried increasing my res to 1200 and this improved it somewhat, but the text 
is still not sharp and occassionally these "shadows" will still print.

I initially thought this was an issue with the printer.. But I can produce a 
pdf image and it is sharp.  However as I have 50+ images I want to include in a 
word document the pdf files are much too large and was the reason I was using 
png.

I am using an older version of R, but didn't want to upgrade as this may cause 
issues with my completed analyses and the potential changes to other functions.

Can someone suggest what it is I have missed?
Thank you very much.

Example code:
Png("volcano.png",units="cm",height=15,width=15,res=1200,pointsize=12)
Volcano2(fit2.eb,coef=2,highlight=5,xlab="log fold change",ylab="log 
odds",pch=16,cex=0.5, main="Volcano Plot",xlim=c(-2,2))
Dev.off()
