Hi The original email did not reach me so I am using this to reply
There is the trellis.device function for lattice graphs which in the past I have had to use to create a pdf as just pdf would not do it ?trellis.device calls the device in this case pdf() ? pdf has the paper specification which explains the size as well as the height and width If you are still wanting to crop white space around the plot see par.settings in xyplot also have a look at trellis.par.get()$layout.widths and trellis.par.get()$layout.heights these values can be changed in par.settings Regards Duncan Duncan Mackay Department of Agronomy and Soil Science University of New England Armidale NSW 2351 Email: home: mac...@northnet.com.au -----Original Message----- From: r-help-boun...@r-project.org [mailto:r-help-boun...@r-project.org] On Behalf Of arun Sent: Saturday, 18 January 2014 02:38 To: r-help@r-project.org Cc: Gerrit Draisma Subject: Re: [R] eliminating white space in lattice plot Hi, May be this helps: x11(width=10,height=3) xyplot(y~x,data=X,type="l",aspect=0.25) dev.copy2pdf(file="wideplot.pdf") dev.off() A.K.

I searched the documentation but could not find how to do it. Standard lattice plots are square, but sometimes I want a wide but low graph and use aspect parameter to obtain such a graph. But then the plot has a lot of white space above and below the graph. That makes it more difficult to include in a LaTeX document.
