Checking ?par, " In a layout with exactly two rows and columns the base value of '"cex"' is reduced by a factor of 0.83: if there are three or more of either rows or columns, the reduction factor is 0.66."
You should be able to simply set cex to 1/0.83 for a 2x2 layout and by 1/0.66 for larger layouts, in a nw 'par' call after setting mfrow or mfcol. More generally, use the cex value set by mfrow/col: par(mfrow=c(2,2)) par(cex=1/par("cex")) plot(1:10) #Normal size symbols, labels etc. > -----Original Message----- > From: R-help [mailto:r-help-boun...@r-project.org] On Behalf Of Jannis via > R-help > Sent: 02 August 2017 13:29 > To: r-help@r-project.org > Subject: [R] switch of cex adjustment with mfrow? > > Dear list members, > > > i am trying to create multiple figures with identical layout (i.e. font sizes > etc.) > for a publication created with Latex.
