Thank you Jeff for your answer.
I do use rmarkdown but I do not write papers completely with it. I do
output a report in HTML but I also like to export the plots as PDF so
that I can edit them (using Inkscape or similar) if and as needed.
And because I like to have both the HTML report including plots and
extra plots as PDF, I cannot use pdf(). That's why I use ggsave().
Or am I missing something?

I use an rmarkdown file to generate consistent output figures and tables for
html or Word. I just use Rnw files directly if I am generating LaTeX. I do not
use R files for building output... and I never use ggsave. So you might
consider altering your approach to bypass the question entirely.

Dear useRs,
I produce several independent ggplot2 plots and I would like to save
them to a fixed width (for publications), but the height (and therefore
aspect ratio) is different from plot to plot.
How can I save my plots with ggsave() supplying only a fixed width but
without knowing the height nor the aspect ratio? If I specify the width
only, the plots are truncated in width because the aspect ratio is not
correct.
Thank you for the tip!
Ivan
