Saving R Graph to a file

Some hints:
For pdf(), height and width are in inches, not pixels.  dev.off() is 
necessary after drawing the image for pdf(). The name for the file 
argument (file="c:/figure.xxx") is file not filename

hist(CO2[,5]) is more interesting

And yes,
?pdf
?postscript

Hi

I am not sure why I can't get my plot saved to a file as .ps, I searched
online and I found that I have to use something is called 
postscript,png or
pdf function which I did but still not working.

Actually what I have is a matrix with almost 300-400 columns. I need to
create a histogram and boxplot for some columns as .ps file (with 
reasonable
size if i can adjust that would be nice also) so I can import them in my
latex code to display a good chart on my report.  And I found out R 
display
a certain limit of device.
Can you please help me code this?

This an example I create
data(CO2)
png(filename="C:/R/figure.png", height=295, width=300, bg="white")
hist(CO2[,4])
device.off()
pdf(filename="C:/R/figure.pdf", height=295, width=300, bg="white")
hist(CO2[,4])
postscript(filename="C:/R/figure.pdf", height=295, width=300, 
bg="white")
hist(CO2[,4])


Thanks
