R graphs in LaTeX documents?

Many thanks for all suggestions, and of course, using dev.copy2eps work. At least almost. Simple graphs are generated and copied into *.eps files, they have been included in the LaTeX document, and in the end I get a nice looking document in the DVI previewer (in my case YAP). Printing doesn't work though. I get a message saying that "..this page contains Postscript specials". Is this due to a faulty *.eps file or should I look for the root causes in the previewer? Any suggestions?
If you include PostScript files you need to print to a printer that understands them. Under Unix this is usually automatic. Under Windows you may need to obtain dvips and ghostscript to create and print PostScript from your DVI files. I would have expected dvips to be in your TeX distribution already. Another possibility is to use pdflatex, which produces Adobe PDF files instead of DVI. You can include PDF graphs produced by Rs pdf() driver (and PNG bitmaps). This is what I usually do, since I often need PDF files either for students or for medical collaborators who can't cope with PostScript. -thomas -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)
