Hi All,

I've been looking around (maybe not extensively) but I couldn't find any
documentation on the list of fonts thats useable with R.

Im trying to change the font of the title, seems like mtext is the only way
so far, which can actually write on top of each other depending on the
lines:

plot(1:5,1:5);
mtext("Title",side=3,cex=3.5,line=1);
mtext("Sub Title",side=3,cex=2.1,line=0);

Ofcourse I wont be using titles that big but would be great if R handled
that on its own rather than me having to worry about maximum height of
tables.

Also are there any packages out there that is better than the base R
graphics (mind you I do like it).

Thanks,
Sachin
p.s. sorry about corporate notice.
