L.S.,

 

I would like to add a downsized image to a pdf file and got stuck on the
code to use.

My goal is to open a pdf device, add a plot, add the downsized image, and
then close the pdf device.

 

Making the downsized image is easy using png(), 

 

png(file="x.png", width = 600, height = 600, units="px", pointsize=12)

image(very large image)

dev.off()

 

making a pdf with a plot as well using pdf(),

 

pdf(file = "y.pdf", paper="letter", width=8.5, height=11)

plot(1:100)

dev.off()

 

However this produces two separate files and my goal is to export the
downsized image (as png) into the pdf file (behind the plot)!

Maybe anyone has some suggestions?
