I've tracked this down to the clipping bug fix reported in the CHANGES
file. There is another bug fix in R-devel that does not affect printing,
so your first option is to use one of the R-devel snapshots on CRAN.
I'll move the R-devel fix to R-patched shortly, so tonight's R-patched
snapshot should also work.

Hi,
I've been using R for many years and have always tried to keep my R version
up to date, and when I switched from 2.7.1 to 2.7.2 I'm suddenly having
trouble printing from the graphics device. I have Windows XP, and installed
both versions of R from the binaries. If I start 2.7.2 and simply do:
plot(1:10)
the default R Graphics Device window opens as usual. However, when I use the
menu in that window to File -> Print, the graph that is printed is cut off
below ~2 on the y-axis and ~10 on the x-axis if I don't resize the Graphics
window; resizing the window bigger does result in more of the graph printed,
but it's still cut off on the y-axis. Everything prints fine in R 2.7.1
(sessionInfo()s below), and all other versions of R I've had on this exact
same computer for the last 3 years printing to the same printer, which is why
I think it's something with R 2.7.2. I even tried un-installing and
re-installing 2.7.2, but the problem persisted. Using the menu to save the
graphic in various formats seems to work fine - the entire graph is visible
in the .png, .pdf, etc. files. I didn't see anything in the changes or the
archives about this... so what's going on and how do I fix it so I can
continue to use 2.7.2?
Thanks,
Jenny
