Hi Jim
                 1. I use a bigger font using 'cex' but that worsens 
because tick marks are close
                 2. A wider png is also insufficient.

The first tick is slightly away from the origin. I should be able to move 
it closer and then stagger the ticks. What is the 'staxlab' line that will 
help ? I used to look at the help page of 'staxlab' but
there are less examples. Are there better references ?

I know this.

staxlab(var),labels=as.character(var),nlines=3,srt=90)

Thanks.

Hi Mohan,
If the tick marks are too close together, you can increase the width of 
the graphic device.

If the labels are blurred, use a larger font (cex=), stagger them 
(staxlab) or try a graphic device like postscript or pdf.
