Hi Erin, For presentations I use LaTeX with beamer.cls and Sweave to access R. The results are legible and attractive. The method is not simple at first, since you must understand how to use beamer.cls and Sweave. But once you're in production mode, it's a delight. I'd be happy to share templates.
Please put some up on the web somewhere! I'm just learning beamer, and don't need it for R right now, but I'm sure I will eventually. Duncan Murdoch P.S. How do I add page numbers to slides? I see in the manual a section called "The Headline and Footline" that apparently tells me how to do it using an option "[page number]", but I don't see where to put that.
