Hi Robert,

Perhaps your difficulties lie on the LaTeX side of the
equation. I've used R versions 1.23, 1.31 and now
1.41; gone thru 'mass production' of numerous
postscript graphics using both the menu and coding;
and pulled those graphics into LaTeX (and
Word)directly without a hitch--EXCEPT IN THE
BEGINNING. And those problems were
first-time-using-LaTeX-related.

Assuming I had saved the R graphic as 'ipu238.eps' the
following (edited) has worked for me:


\documentclass[10pt,letterpaper]{report}
...
\usepackage{graphicx}
...

\begin{document}

...as can be seen in Figure \ref{fig:ipu238}. The
confidence bands are wide and ...

\begin{figure}
	\begin{center}
		\includegraphics[scale=0.9]{ipu238}
	\end{center}
  \caption{Intervals for plutonium 238 versus europium
154 using all samples.}
	\label{fig:ipu238}
\end{figure}

...

\end{document}


FYI, I use TeXnicCenter/MikTeX for the LaTeX. They
work very well together.(Note: LyX on windows is
cygwin based and requires an Xserver, e.g. XFree86.
Might as run Linux to begin with! Hmmm, not a bad
idea, but RWin is getting pretty sweet.) 

Regards,
Mike
