Hello, everyone! The code below allows me to produce the graph I want (I know - the colors are strange, but it's just for the sake of an example). After you run the plot<- part and then do print(plot) - that's what I want. However, when I run the bits of code below (with graphics devices) - what they print is different from the original plot. In .png, .emf, and .tiff - my dots change their shape and my lines (I think) become thinner. And in .ps format - the dots stay what they are supposed to be but they change their color. Could you please explain to me what the reasons are for those changes? Also - should I specify my chart characteristics differently depending on the device I'll be using? Thank you very much! Dimitri
