Hi, When I place a legend on a plot it looks exactly as I intended on the screen. However, almost always, when I export this to postscript file, the legend's text protrudes through the legend's frame (the latter being placed correctly). See the appended example code. I can send the EPS file as well for those that are interested (<4 kb; <200 lines).
I found nothing in the FAQS, or in R-intro to enlighten me. I tried few things --- changing font size, setting legend's text width, etc. --- but eventually gave up. How can I get a consistent X11 and PS rendering? (R 1.8.1 on Linux RedHat 9; GhostView 3.5.8) TIA Itay #### Example for X11-EPS discrepancy in legend rendering #### ## A useless data to plot x <- 0:10; XY <- list(x=x, y=2*x) ## Set lims explicitly; use later in placing the legend. xlim <- range(XY$x); ylim <- range(XY$y) plot(XY, xlim=xlim, ylim=ylim, type="l", lty=1, col=2, axes=FALSE) axis(1); axis(2) ## Legend and plot share the bottom-right corner. legend(xlim[2], ylim[1], "A set of random numbers", lty=1, col=2, xjust=1, yjust=0) ## On the screen: OK. Now produce EPS file. dev.copy2eps(file="test.eps", paper="letter") ######################### End example ################## -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
