[R] EPS->LaTeX problem

[Michaell Taylor]

Both R and latex can twist plots around some. I usually explicitly indicate 
the orientation in R via the horizontal switch on the postscript command.

postscript("estimate.ps",height=4, width=6, horizontal=F)

You can also rotate graphs around in latex thusly,

\rotatebox{0}{\resizebox{10cm}{!}{\includegraphics{DeComExtrems.ps}}}

The first arguement of the rotatebox command is the degree to rotate.
