Hi, You could have a look at exporting the pdfs using the Cairo package.

Hi, I am generating a large number of graphs with pdf() and incorporating them in pdf document using pdflatex. According to the pdf() help: 'pdf' writes uncompressed PDF. It is primarily intended for producing PDF graphics for inclusion in other documents, and PDF-includers such as 'pdftex' are usually able to handle .compression. But pdflatex incorporates the R graphs without compressing them. They appear in the final document in cleartext, almost but not identical to what was generated by R. I tried the latex settings "\\pdfcompresslevel=9", "\\pdfobjcompresslevel=3". They reduced the overall size of the final document slightly, but didn't cause the embedded R graphs to be compressed. Can anyone suggest how I can get pdflatex to compress the R graphs while embedding them? My output files are very big, and I know they would be substantially smaller if the R graphs were compressed. Regards, David
