Dear Deepayan, sorry for not being clear - but my problem has nothing to do with the aspect. If I create the eps the following way
library(lattice) plot.vol<- wireframe(volcano, aspect = c(1,1.5), scales=list(arrows=F),zlab=list("Z-axis",rot=90)) postscript("example_plot_3.eps", width = 14.0/2.54, height = 19.0/2.54, horizontal = FALSE, onefile = FALSE,paper="special") trellis.par.set("axis.line",list(alpha=1,col=1,lty=1,lwd=1)) print(plot.vol) dev.off() The plot is still not in the left bottom corner of the file. There is a lot of space below the outer box line. If I include this eps in latex it will also include this space and if I put for example the figure caption below it I have this huge gap between actual graph and caption. And for comparison, if I create with xyplot an eps like postscript("example_plot_4.eps", width = 14.0/2.54, height = 19.0/2.54, horizontal = FALSE, onefile = FALSE,paper="special") Depth <- equal.count(quakes$depth, number=8, overlap=.1) plot.depth<-xyplot(lat ~ long | Depth, data = quakes) update(trellis.last.object(), strip = strip.custom(strip.names = TRUE, strip.levels = TRUE), par.strip.text = list(cex = 0.75), aspect = "iso") print(plot.depth) dev.off() the figure is really in the left bottom corner and included in latex has not that gap between caption and actual figure. I hope this describes my problem better.
