Note the ragged looking line and the sharp letters. Every computer performs the basic functions of input, processing, storage, output, and transmission of data. Let us start by looking at an exported plot from RStudio, clearly not something I would like to send to a journal: A PNG Export from RStudio. n Output n Network fundamentals 3.1 Computer Systems A computer system is an integrated set of hardware and software designed to process data and produce a meaningful result. The down-side of this is that it is not really a convenient work-flow when you create knitr/Sweave documents where many plots are simultaneously generated. The vector graphics allows smooth scaling without me having to worry about the text becoming too small to read while at the same time adding the anti-aliasing. My previous solution to this problem has been to export my graph to a vector graphic (usually the SVG format), open it in Inkscape, and then export it to the resolution of choice. When increasing the resolution the labels automatically decrease and become unreadable.Anti-aliasing is not activated in Windows R (this does not apply to Linux or Mac).There are two main problems when exporting graphics from R:

This post is all about how to export anti-aliased, high resolution plots from R in Windows. It is therefore funny that exporting these plots is such an issue in Windows. The graphical ablility of R is often listed as a major reason for choosing the language.
