[R] odfWeave - How to Insert eps rather than png

[Kuhn, Max]

Rick,

First, can you send details about your versions/OS using sessionInfo()?

Did the code chunk *fail* or did it complete without error? What were
the options in setImageDefs? I'll need more detail to provide you with
any help.

A quick search of "odfWeave postscript" resulted in

OpenOffice uses other applications (like ImageMagick's convert) to
generate previews of ps images. If you are on windows, there is an non-R
issue where Microsoft's file utility called convert interferes with the
other convert and no image shows up (or prints). I have the same issue.
It should be fixable by putting ImageMagick earlier in the path, but I
have not tried this yet.
