Hi Carol,

Try this

>  par(oma=c(2,2,2,2))
>  par(mfrow = c(1,2))
>  plot(c(1,2,3), c(9,8,7))
>  plot(c(1,2,3), c(9,8,7))
>  title(main = "Main title", sub ="Sub title",outer = TRUE, cex.main=1.5,
cex.sub = 1.5)

par(oma=c(2,2,2,2)) -- can be used to define outline of the plot. Arguments
here are for "bottom", "left", "top", "right"; which ofcourse can be changed
according to need. HTH
