Question

How can I fix the following code?

postscript("test.eps")
    dev.new(width=5,height=2)
    plot(1:10)
dev.off()

Obviously I want to export this small height plot to an eps file. Right now a completely blank .eps will be exported.

Answer 1

Just drop the extraneous call to plot.new() and it should work fine:

postscript("test.eps", width = 5, height = 2)
    plot(1:10)
dev.off()
