(Fwd) [R] problems with postscript device (PR#335)

[koller2@fgr.wu-wien.ac.at]

Hi,

I first sent this mail only to the help list.
But it seems to be a bug worth of fixing.

Subject:       [R] problems with postscript device

Hi!

The postscript device in 0.90 does not produce symbols (pch=) as it 
should. E.g.:


postscript(file="test.ps",width=8,height=6.4,horizontal=FALSE)
plot(1:10,1:10,pch=1:5)
legend(1,9,letters[1:5],pch=1:5)
dev.off()

The result looks quite different compared to the X-windows version. 
The symbol 1 (pch=1) is much to small, while the other symbols 
seem to big.

Is it a bug? How can I work it around?
