Re: [R] export many plots to one file
Another thing to think about is about each individual scatter plot. Aren't you plotting too much duplicate (x,y) values? You could try to plot only unique values, or even try to filter out points that are very close. __ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
Re: [R] export many plots to one file
The approach I would take (possibly due to ignorance of a better option) is to export to the multiple .png files, then use a tool like imagemagick to combine them into a single pdf file. For a quick test I exported 3 graphs from R and called them test1.png, test2.png, and test3.png. The imagemagick command is then just: convert test*.png test.pdf Hope this helps, -- Gregory (Greg) L.

Re: [R] export many plots to one file
I can think of two options: 1. Use R2HTML and save the html output as PDF 2. Use Sweave and compile the LaTeX file to PDF. Search the mailing list archive on how to save the graphs as png or jpeg (as Sweave will standard generate eps or pdf graphs). Cheers, Thierry ir.

[R] export many plots to one file
Dear useRs, I have a few hundred plots that I'd like to export to one document. pdf() isn't an option, because the file created is prohibitively huge (due to scatter plots with many points). So I have to use png() instead, but then I end up with a lot of files (would prefer just one). 1. Is there a way to have pdf() embed images, instead of vector instructions? (What would have to be changed/added, and where? I'd consider that a very useful feature.) 2. Does anyone have a script for importing many images (png, bitmap, jpg) into one PDF file? I'd prefer something that works both on Windows and GNU.
