Do any of Lattice function (splom etc.) show the graphics on the graphic
window on your machine? It works with non-Lattice graphics like pairs,
but not with Lattice.
But I will try your suggestion. Actually I used postscript function to
download the graphics on a file. But I tried it only with pairs, but
not with splom. I should have thought about it!
I haven't tried pdf, but with postscript, strangely, only plots and
texts become correctly horizontal, but axes stay in vertical mode. So I
have to rotate manually to correct the problem. Somehow
"horizontal=FALSE" works correctly for both plots/texts and axes.
