The problem I was having with the R postscript funciton under F8 was that it was creating gray images instead of color images. I couldn't figure out how to get the color. The cairo_ps function produced color images. I used eps2eps hoping it would fix what was wrong and it did. So I got the color and a usable eps file. I'll look into setEPS.
