[R] Using pointsize with postscript trellis.device

[Patrick Connolly]

I've been accustomed to specifying a postscript file and pointsize
like so:

trellis.device(postscript, file = "something.ps", pointsize = 8)

Using version
         _                
platform i686-pc-linux-gnu
arch     i686             
os       linux-gnu        
system   i686, linux-gnu  
status                    
major    1                
minor    9.0              
year     2004             
month    04               
day      12               
language R     ,           

the pointsize does not seem to have any effect (i.e. the default
pointsize is still at 12).  I tried specifically setting pointsize as
a ps.option, but also to no avail.

The same idea works with regular plots and I'm sure I used to be able
to do this with previous versions with lattice plots also.

Have I overlooked something?
