kludge alert! How about: text(x,y,"ABC",col=3) text(x,y,"AB",col=2) text(x,y,"A",col=1) Basically this overlays three coloured texts to give the impression of individual coloured letters. This may or may not be practical for your real application. It's also possible that if you print this your printer will end up printing "A" with a mix of colours 1, 2 and 3. If your font is monospaced you could do it with text(x,y," C",col=3), but in a pretty font the letters AB wont have the same width as two spaces.
