Tanya,

Take a look at these two posts from earlier this summer where I provide
some conceptual and coding examples of plotting column aligned/justified
text in a graphics window.

http://www.r-project.org/nocvs/mail/r-help/2002/5760.html (concept)
http://www.r-project.org/nocvs/mail/r-help/2002/5764.html (example code)

The above examples are for a single "main" plot window, but you should
be able to use these approaches in your various plot regions within a
single window.

As I point out in the first post, using demo(graphics) will also give
you some sample code in creating spreadsheet-like cells within the plot
region into which you can plot math symbols, etc.

If you have any follow questions, let me know.

Best regards and HTH,

Marc Schwartz
