Hi, You could try the grid.grab() function in R devel if your graphics use the Grid package. It will read the graphical output as a bitmap which
grid.grab() does NOT grab a bitmap version of the current picture. It grabs all of the (grid-rendered) grobs in the current picture. You might be thinking of grid.cap(), which is currently only in the development version of R. But if you want a raster version of the current plot, it would make more sense to use a raster device, like png().

you can then export in a multipage pdf. It may not be really flattening per se but that would definitely help with the viewing speed.

What I'm interested in doing if I have many pages of plots and I want to keep them together in the same document, say a PDF, is there a way to flatten all the dot plots and graphics, so that they don't take a long time to load on a slow computer in Adobe Reader, without using external programs outside of R ?
