Graphic file formats

[Murat Yildizoglu]

You can even save in PNG from R and choose the definition in dpi that you want and the size of the bitmap plot. You can make them quite big, they will never be as demanding as a vector image (as in a pdf export)  with thousands data points.

In Rich’s specific case, I suspect that the outliers of the boxplots crowd the plot. ggplot has an option for not plotting them, then you have just simple boxes left on the plot, and they do not need much memory, a few Ko only.

For showing data distribution, I also like to use, when they are informative and relevant, kernel-density plots instead of data points.

I have had to find these substitution strategies because my points plots were saturating the lab printer’s memory, giving incomplete printed pages (and yes, the pages were also slow to show on screen of course with machines of that time).
