How is the pointsize set in trellis.devices?
>From my reading of the trellis.device help file, I understood that the
pointsize arg would be referenced to the call to the pdf function.
So I set up a trellis pdf device as so:
trellis.device(device = pdf, file = "Singers.pdf", height = 160/25.4,
width = 160/25.4, pointsize = 28)
A base R graphics plot works as I'd expected.
plot(1:10, 50:59) # silly plot with huge plotting characters and letters
However, pointsize is ignored in trellis plots;
pik <- bwplot(voice.part ~ height, data = singer)# pointsize ignored
print(pik)
dev.off()
There are many trellis cex-type settings, but FWIU they're all
relative to the default size. My question is: How do I set that
default?

I've tried with R-3.1.0 on another machine so I don't think the
problem is with an old version.
I doubt it has much to do with pdf specifically. Attempts to use png,
bitmap, postscript devices all produce equivalent results.
(Here's all the example code uninterrupted:)
trellis.device(device = pdf, file = "Singers.pdf", height = 160/25.4,
width = 160/25.4, pointsize = 28)
plot(1:10, 50:59) # silly plot with huge plotting characters and letters
pik <- bwplot(voice.part ~ height, data = singer)# pointsize ignored
print(pik)
dev.off()
TIA
