Thanks for the fast reply.I don't know if it is a bug or not ,only that it
don't work. I have both R-1.9.0 and R-1.9.1 installed and run the exact same
program/data on both, the R-1.9.0 works. I agree that the problem most
probably is related to dev.copy() .
xwininfo gives H:524 and W:524
The postscript file is ~A4
postscript(filename,horizontal=FALSE,height=10,pointsize=10)
The function generate a postscript file with the headers and so on but none
of the plot are recreated in the file.
