Thanks for the above mentioned methods. I will try them one by one.
Thanks again.

The production of "publication-quality graphics" has been discussed at
great length on R-sig-eco over the past week or so. The archive is
available here:

and the thread is very near the bottom. Very detailed recommendations
have been provided. (Also see the past two days, which are not of
course in the May archive.)

Dear Rusers,
My manuscript has been conditionally accepted recently. The problem to
generate the high resolution figures in R for the manuscript cannot be
solved by me.
The journal editor ask me to generate the figures with a minimum
resolution
of 500 dpi. I have tried the *menu-driven method* to save the figures as
JPEG (100% printed quality), but the results seem not to be very good. I
have submitted the generated figures twice using the above-mentioned
method,
but the Editor think the resolution is still very low.
Finally, i used the Photoshop to check the figure. It seems that its
resolution for JPEG (100% printed quality) is about 72dpi.
*Does anybody know a better method to save a figure with user-defined
resolution in R software, especially high resolution? Could u please show
me
an example if possible?*
I hope to save the figures as TIFF/JPEG format at 1000 dpi.
Thanks a lot.

Why not save as a vector format? Resolution is effectively infinite.
Brian Ripley has produced new and enhanced drivers for recent R releases
... File/Save As and choose your poison ... both Postscript (.ps) and
PDF (.pdf) work very well. GSView can convert postscript to encapsulated
postscript (eps). In theory SVG should be a way to go, but rendering
engines seem a bit idiosyncratic, so not worth the blood pressure at
this stage. If you must use bitmap then ImageMagick will do a good
conversion with all bells and whistles.
There was a discussion on these lines on R-help in mid April I think,
