Dear list

I am interested n developing a graph using plot() and text() commands in which several text strings will be placed within the plot area I would like some way to get the size (width and height), either in pixels or using the plot's coordinate system, of text strings, based on the typeface/font size assigned for writing text in the plot area. Is therre  function that can do this? I have seen in one of my R books reference to accessing text properties, including size, but do not see any specific functions mentioned.

Thanks

Barth
