The types of bitmap available depend on the ghostscript you have installed. Have you checked that yours handles jpeg?
That's true, but bitmap() is failing in its check of the available types.
As so very often, we lack the 'at a minimum' information requested in the posting guide. Run the equivalent on your OS of 'gs -help' to see what is going on: the problem result from bitmap() being unable to parse the output of that command. Probably the ghostscript installation is broken, but it could just be that this is a version that we've not seen before.
What happens if you use the jpeg driver directly? -----Original Message----- From: r-help-boun...@r-project.org [mailto:r-help-boun...@r-project.org] On Behalf Of kayj Sent: Wednesday, 11 August 2010 7:25 AM To: r-help@r-project.org Subject: [R] problem with Bitmap Hi All, I am trying to run the following script but I am getting and error message one <- read.table("sample.txt",sep="\t") bitmap(file="sample.JPG",type="jpeg",width=5,height=5,res=300,pointsize=10) "Error in (st + 1):(en - 1) : argument of length 0" plot(V2 ~ V1,one) I tried to google the error but did not find anything!
