Hi Group,

I posted this question on the ggplot list and was advised to try here
also. The code
below produces a plot as a png and pdf. The pdf looks great, and I cannot
make the png look this way.  I've tried various combinations of
height, width, and dpi, but it has not worked out so
far. Any suggestions to make the png look like the pdf? I received a
response that
the problem does not occur on a Mac, so it may be unique to XP.
Thanks for your time. -- Juliet
