[R] Tiff plot Resolution issues

[Ranjan Maitra]

Actually, quite a few journals do ask for .tiff (or, often, also .eps)
only (as part of their webpage instructions) but my experience has been
that many take .pdf without a lot of fuss.  

The OP could try and see if pdf will fly. If not, then (s)he can go
for TIFF images. If this is at the journal production stage, the
journal should help. (Of course, if on Linux and friends, (s)he could
also use ImageMagick to convert pdf/eps files to tiff. Something
similar for the proprietary OS's should also be possible.)

Best wishes,
Ranjan
