[R] ggsave() with width only

[Jeff Newmiller]

I use an rmarkdown file to generate consistent output figures and tables for html or Word. I just use Rnw files directly if I am generating LaTeX. I do not use R files for building output... and I never use ggsave. So you might consider altering your approach to bypass the question entirely.
