[R] plot to postscript orientation

[John Kane]

I don't know about for Miruna but it does not work for
me.

I  tried 
postscript ("figure.eps", paper="letter")

http://ca.geocities.com/jrkrideau/R/eps.figure.pdf
& 
postscript("figure.eps, paper="special", width=5,
height=4)

with similaar same results.

Interstingly enough figure.eps imports completely into
Word but rotated 90 degrees as Miruna noted.  

Where are you finding the Options for Auto? I don't
see them.
