Hi,

You could try the grid.grab() function in R devel if your graphics use
the Grid package. It will read the graphical output as a bitmap which


grid.grab() does NOT grab a bitmap version of the current picture. It grabs all of the (grid-rendered) grobs in the current picture. You might be thinking of grid.cap(), which is currently only in the development version of R. But if you want a raster version of the current plot, it would make more sense to use a raster device, like png().

you can then export in a multipage pdf. It may not be really
flattening per se but that would definitely help with the viewing
speed.

Hello,

This question is a nightmare to search for, as I get so many irrelevant 
results. What I'm interested in doing if I have many pages of plots and I want 
to keep them together in the same document, say a PDF, is there a way to 
flatten all the dot plots and graphics, so that they don't take a long time to 
load on a slow computer in Adobe Reader, without using external programs 
outside of R ?

Thanks,
      Dario.
