Let me repharse. At the moment I have a loop that plots a histogram of the variable, along with rug and super-imposed normal curve over it. It does that for a lot of variables in the dataset and then compiles them into a pdf. Whereby each page on the pdf corresponds to the histogram of 1 variable. However, it takes ages to load and takes up a lot of memory. So I was wondering if there is a way that before it gets compiled into a pdf, if I can convert my graphs into png or bitmaps images and then compile them into pdf? This is my code so far: pdf(file="C:/#temp/Histo and2.pdf") ##- Saves all plots in the same pdf file for(k in 1:ncol(nums2)){ hist(nums2[,k],freq=F,col="lightblue1", #density=20 ##- Density -> Gives shaded bars main=names(nums2)[k],col.main="blue",cex.main=0.8,font=2, xlab=names(nums2)[k]) ##- Font=2 => bold #rug(jitter(nums2[,k]),side=1,col="antiquewhite3") lines(density(nums2[,k],na.rm=T),col="navy",lwd=2) ##- Density Function of data curve(dnorm(x,mean=mean(nums2[,k],na.rm=T),sd=sd(nums2[,k],na.rm=T)), col="brown",lwd=3,add=T) # readline(prompt="Press [enter] to continue") } dev.off() Hope this is much clearer?

If you are not getting what you want, then what is it that you do want?
