orientation of eps files
I also had problems with the rotation of eps files in LaTeX presentations.
Now, I produce eps files in R with postscript( ), 'distill' it with "ps2eps",
make a pdf with "epstopdf", include it in my LaTeX file with \pgfimage{ },
use LaTeX class "beamer" (http://latex-beamer.sourceforge.net) and compile my
presentation with pdflatex. This works great!
HTH,

hello,
i have a problem with the orientation of eps files produced with the
postscript() command. i have generated some eps files with R using:
postscript(file = filename, horizontal = FALSE, paper = "special", onefile
= F ALSE, height = height, width = width, pointsize = pointsize)
now, when i include these eps files into a standard paper document (ie. a4
paper, portrait orientation) everything is fine.
however, i am now wanting to incorporate the same images into a
presentation. i am making a pdf file, which for presentation purposes is in
landscape orientation. i am using latex with the prosper package. images
are included with \includegraphics{} and a pdf file is generated with
dvipdf. however, in this case, when i include the eps figures the whole
page suddenly gets rotated around into portrait. eps files from other
packages seem to work fine.
there is an example of the problem at
ftp://chinstrap.nu.ac.za/orientation.pdf.
if you have any ideas as to what might be causing this problem, i would be
extremely happy to hear them.
best regards,
andrew.
