Hello I am using sweave with the Density() function from lessR package. However, unlike the older color.density() function, Density() does not work with the standard graphic output functions in R, such as pdf. Is there away to include figures fgenerated rom lessR in sweave documents? thank you
sweave and lessR

Tell Density to write to "foo.pdf", then just use \includegraphics{foo}
in your Sweave document. (This assumes you're using pdflatex; it looks
as though you can't do it at all if you can't handle PDF figures.)

Thank you for the reply. With many calls to Density() I miss Sweave taking care of the naming of the files and the generating of the \includegraphics statements, but I guess this will work.

You (or the lessR author) could possibly write your own custom graphics device driver to work with Sweave; see "Graphics devices" in the Sweave vignette. Or perhaps lessR could be configured to use the regular pdf() graphics driver. Duncan Murdoch
