Dear R-Users, I am using R for years now but recently I encounter a problem with the pdf-size of graphics generated with sweave. However, I am new in this forum. Hence, please don't hesitate if I am wrong here. I use a script which runs perfectly in R 2.11.1 and the pdf-size of the graphs is about 3 KB. Running the same script with R 2.13.1 the file size increases to 12 KB. I am using about 300 pdf-pictures in my tex-file, generated by sweave. So this change in file size is dramatic for the finally pdf-file. Has somebody an explanation for this phenomenon?
Sometimes improvements to the device functions may lead to such a phenomenon. In this case maybe since the plots are actually really small, some overhead matters.
A minimal reproducible example would help that someone looks into the details, but I doubt this is too important here. I also doubt this is Sweave related. Have you tried a minimal example with the pdf() device directly? Have you read the NEWs about changes since R-2.11.1?
Best, Uwe Ligges
