Hi everyone, My data consists of a system of nearly 75000 roads, available as a shapefile. When I plot the road system, by adding the individual roads with 'lines' and store it as a pdf-file with 'pdf' I get a file of size 13 MB. This is way too large to add it in my LaTeX-document, because there will be some more graphics of this type. Now I'm curious to learn wheter there is a possibility in R to shrink the file size of this graphic? I merely need it in a resolution so that it looks "smooth" when printed out. I don't know much about the storage of R graphics, but maybe there is a way to change the way the file is stored perhaps as a pixel image?
Thank you very much in advance! Any tips are appreciated much!
