Dear R users

I am trying to exporting plots from R to an external folder, or to the
working directory, but the resolution of plots (pdf file) largely reduced.
Any way I can get same quality as my original plots?? e.g. I tested the
plotting part using one example and obtained pretty good (/readable)
quality for each plot in the (4*4) multiple graph. But when I did the loop
and tried to export those plots out using 'dev.copy', the quality was not
same. I do need this loop function as there are 400 datasets so I can not
handle them manually.

Also I am using 'xtable' to write Latex code for my summary tables of the
data (again there are 400 datasets). I saved those Latex code in a list and
use 'sink()' to save them outside the loop function, which works ok. But as
my table is wide, so I found that the Latex code produced by xtable can not
fit my purpose well, e.g. I have set size to 'tiny' but the table still too
wide. Is there an alternative package more handy to do the job? Also are
there a good way to write some hundred tables from R to Latex for producing
pdf documents in an easier fashion?? i.e. Just realised that Latex does not
like compiling large amount tables/figures in one go!

Any advices/ideas are greatly appreciated!


Best wishes

Below is my code...
