Hi
Update your version of grid. This is a known problem, reported here
many
times and fixed in grid 0.5-1.
Heinrich Ritter commented that this had not been announced. Since that may be a common misunderstanding, let me explain. It is not usual to announce patch releases (here -1) of packages. You would get tired of hearing about them: there have been at least 70 since 1.4.0 was announced on Dec 19. (Your maintainers do get a bit tired of the flood sometimes too.) What we do expect is that you run update.packages() fairly frequently, and certainly when you encounter a problem.
Since there were a few problems reported, here's a bit more information
about the bug-fix version of grid, 0.5-1.
The purpose of this version is to fix the following bugs:
(i) grid (lattice) output could not be saved in metafile format
(ii) non-grid output could not be saved in metafile format when
grid (lattice) was loaded
(iii) empty page at start of grid (lattice) postscript output
(iv) empty page at start of non-grid postscript output when
grid (lattice) was loaded
(v) copying grid (lattice) output from x11 to postscript (dev.copy)
produced blank pages in postscript
The latest version of the lattice package (version 0.4-0) should work fine
with this new version of grid.
