| ps.options {grDevices} | R Documentation |
The auxiliary function ps.options can be used to set or view
(if called without arguments) the default values for some of the
arguments to postscript.
ps.options needs to be called before calling postscript,
and the default values it sets can be overridden by supplying
arguments to postscript.
ps.options(..., reset = FALSE, override.check = FALSE) setEPS(...) setPS(...)
... |
arguments onefile, family, title,
fonts,
encoding, bg, fg, width, height,
horizontal, pointsize, paper,
pagecentre, print.it, command and
colormodel can be supplied. onefile,
horizontal and paper are ignored
for setEPS and setPS. |
reset |
logical: should the defaults be reset to their ‘factory-fresh’ values? |
override.check |
logical argument passed to
check.options. See the Examples. |
If both reset = TRUE and ... are supplied the defaults
are first reset to the ‘factory-fresh’ values and then the new
values are applied.
For backwards compatibility argument append is accepted but
ignored with a warning.
setEPS and setPS are wrappers to set defaults
appropriate for figures for inclusion in documents (the default size
is 7 inches square unless width or height is supplied)
and for spooling to a PostScript printer respectively. For historical
reasons the latter is the ultimate default.
A named list of all the previous defaults. If ... or
reset = TRUE is supplied the result has the visibility flag
turned off.
