Thanks Jeff. I'm not sure to which manual you are referring. Nothing like what you mention is found here: http://cran.r-project.org/manuals.html . Perhaps you're referring to The Data Import/Export Manual, but that wouldn't make sense. Googling "R Input/Output manual" doesn't help.
Regarding the device, I'm in R-Studio, plotting to the standard device there (I suppose). In any case, I'm not totally sure what the interface between R-Studio's plot window and the R instance is. I think that, as you say, what I'm getting is as expected. I zoom and the plot zooms as expected. So, I guess that part is solved. However, the writing to .wmf as a bitmap instead of a vector is still a mystery to me.
