for the rect

and mtext
functions.
pdf(file = ifelse(onefile, "Rplots.pdf", "Rplot%03d.pdf"), width, height, onefile, family, title, fonts, version, paper, encoding, bg, fg, pointsize, pagecentre) pdf2(file = ifelse(onefile, "Rplots.pdf", "Rplot%03d.pdf"), width, height, onefile, family, title, fonts, version, paper, encoding, bg, fg, pointsize, pagecentre)
file |
a character string giving the name of the file.
For use with onefile=FALSE give a C integer format such
as "Rplot%03d.pdf" (the default in that case).
(See postscript for further details.)
|
width, height |
the width and height of the graphics region in
inches. The default values are 7 . |
onefile |
logical: if true (the default) allow multiple figures
in one file. If false, generate a file wiht name containing the page
number for each page. Defaults to TRUE . |
family |
the font family to be used, see
postscript . Defaults to "Helvetica" . |
title |
title string to embed as the /Title field in the
file. Defaults to "R Graphics Output" . |
fonts |
a character vector specifying R graphics font family
names for fonts which will be included in the PDF file. Defaults to
NULL . |
version |
a string describing the PDF version that will be
required to view the output. This is a minimum, and will be
increased (with a warning) if necessary. Defaults to "1.4" ,
but see ‘Details’. |
paper |
the target paper size. The choices are
"a4" , "letter" , "legal" (or "us" ) and
"executive" (and these can be capitalized), or "a4r"
and "USr" for rotated (‘landscape’).
The default is "special" , which means that the width
and height specify the paper size. A further choice is
"default" ; if this is selected, the
papersize is taken from the option "papersize"
if that is set and as "a4" if it is unset or empty.
Defaults "special" .
|
encoding |
the name of an encoding file. See
postscript for details. Defaults to "default" . |
bg |
the initial background color to be used. Defaults to
"transparent" . |
fg |
the initial foreground color to be used. Defaults to
"black" . |
pointsize |
the default point size to be used. Strictly
speaking, in bp, that is 1/72 of an inch, but approximately in
points. Defaults to 12 . |
pagecentre |
logical: should the device region be centred on the
page? – is only relevant for paper != "special" . Defaults
to true. |
