Dear R users,

I have a desktop computer and a laptop, both of them with Ubuntu Lucid. The
former has R2.10 installed from Ubuntu repositories (this is the most recent
version in the repositories), while the latter has R2.13 from the CRAN
repositories.

I noticed that postscript files generated with R2.10 are "better"  than
files generated with the latest release of R, in particular for plots with
colored areas, such as the output of image or persp. The thing is that my ps
viewer (e.g. gv or evince) is very slow in opening ps files from R2.13,
while it smoothly displays ps files from R2.10, regardless of
"encapsulation".

I think this is related to differences in the way the ps file is generated
by the two versions of R, but I don't know how to go deeper in the matter.

Is there anyone experiencing the same issue? Is there any solution?

Thank you in advance

Cheers

Gaetano
