A follow-up to PR#660 (15 Sep 2000) from Brian Ripley:

The same with par(cex=1); plot(1:10); text(4, 5, "Hello World") # OK par(cex=2); plot(1:10); text(4, 5, "Hello World") # OK par(cex=2); plot(1:10); text(4, 5, "Hello World", cex = 1) # NOT OK par(cex=2); plot(1:10); text(4, 5, "Hello World", cex = 0.5) So the scaling with cex in text() is relative to the par() settings, which is not the expected behaviour.
It is the documented behaviour, though: see the description of cex in
?help.
cex: numeric character expansion factor; multiplied by
`par("cex")' yields the final character size.
