EPS graphics device

Description

Device driver for Encapsulated Postscript. This driver is the same as the postscript driver where some arguments have different default values.

Usage

eps(file="Rplot%03d.eps", width=7, height=7, horizontal=FALSE, paper="special",
  onefile=FALSE, ...)

Arguments

file	Default file name (pattern).
width, height	The width and height of the figure.
horizontal	If FALSE, an horizontal EPS file is created, otherwise a portrait file is created.
paper	A character string specifying the paper type. Overrides the default of postscript().
onefile	Not used.
...	Other arguments accepted by postscript().

Value

A plot device is opened; nothing is returned.

This is just a convenient wrapper for postscript with the proper arguments set to generate an EPS file.

It is recommended to use toEPS() instead.

Examples

## Not run: 
  eps("foo.eps", width=7, height=7)

  # is identical to

  postscript("foo.eps", width=7, height=7, onefile=TRUE, horizontal=FALSE)

  # and

  dev.print(eps, "foo.eps", ...)

  # is identical to

  dev.print(postscript, "foo.eps", onefile=TRUE, horizontal=FALSE, paper="special", ...)

## End(Not run)
