Firstly, EPS is a vector format so DPI doesn't make any sense (except for embedding raster image data within it). Secondly, how do you know many dots (pixels) to make your image if you don't know how big in inches your image is going to be? Thirdly, if its a graph, it's probably best saved as an EPS to preserve the inherent vector nature of a plot. Fourthly, I should have answered this on stackoverflow.org in order to increase my reputation points :) Or maybe decrease them :) Barry ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org 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.
