## Package R.devices

### Description

Functions for creating plots and image files in a unified way regardless of output format (EPS, PDF, PNG, SVG, TIFF, WMF, etc.). Default device options as well as scales and aspect ratios are controlled in a uniform way across all device types. Switching output format requires minimal changes in code. This package is ideal for large-scale batch processing, because it will never leave open graphics devices or incomplete image files behind, even on errors or user interrupts.

### To get started

- Vignette 'R.devices overview'

- `toEPS`(), `toPDF`(), `toPNG`(), ... - evaluate graphics code and atomically save plot to a figure file.
