Hi,

My vanilla code works fine... 

See also attached .eps file (seperate email sent directly to you)

> r<-rnorm(100)

> dev.off()

Also this works ok as you have been told already:

If you see my eps file wrongly then your GSVIEW setup is wrong. 

Choose Orientation "Auto" and under Options (bottom half)
click-select-tick everything except "Ignore DSC".

That should do the trick...

I guess this is a misconfiguration of your GSview. The plots are fine 

for me. Anyway, you might also want to set the argument

paper="special" in the postscript() call.
