Here is a caricature of my problem: par(mfrow=c(1,1)) x1 = rnorm(1000) x2 = rnorm(1000)+10 y1 = rnorm(1000)+10 y2 = rnorm(1000)+10 palette(rainbow(6)) plot(x=x1,y=y1,col=y1,xlim=c(-10,20)) palette(heat.colors(6)) points(x=x2,y=y2,col=y2) dev.copy2pdf(file = "broke.pdf", height = 8, width = 8) I plot the two normal blobs in two different color palettes, and it looks fine on the screen. I go to look at the PDF, and they are BOTH in heat map. How would I render both palettes on the pdf?
