You have to use a larger "left" margin (i.e. margin # 2), see the 'mar' section in help(par), and also re-read the part on graphics in the "Introduction to R" manual. The following will look better {independently of the device, postscript, X11, windows,...}: label <- expression(italic(A) == union(italic(H)[italic(i)],i==1,4)) op <- par(mar = .1 + c(5,5,4,1)) plot(1,1, xlab=label, ylab=label) par(op)# to reset the graphics settings to the defaults Martin ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
