Plot won't fit in R window

Question

I am using the meta package in R to do a meta-analysis of proportions. I have about a hundred studies in my analysis. When I type forest(result) to create my forest plot, it works, but the graphic is chopped off at the top and bottom. It won't fit in the plot window no matter what I do! I am stumped on how to solve this. Any ideas?

enter image description here

Any idea how to do that? I tried typing `png(filename = "test.png")` but it still cuts off the image (see above). — Alexander, Mar 19 '15 at 00:07
have you tried `pdf(filename="test.pdf",width=20,height=8)` (extreme but should give you the idea)? — Ben Bolker, Mar 19 '15 at 00:14
Thanks that did the trick. I usually right click on the graphic and copy it as a meta-file, then paste that into PowerPoint, where I can ungroup it and play around with the pieces. Is there a way to do that like this? — Alexander, Mar 19 '15 at 00:33

I had the same issue and found setting the margins to be the easiest solution.
