[Tikzdevice-bugs] ggplot-tikz examples

[Felipe Carrillo]

Hi:
I am using my laptop from home and everything seems to work ok here. A couple of
question if you don't mind:
1 - If I want to create say a 20 page report with graphics 
and tables do I use the tikz() function over and over to make the graphics and tables or just one 
time at the beginning of my script?
 
2- How do I include other LaTex packages using for example \usepackage{geometry}
 
I will check the manual but I would appreciate it if you can point out to a tex file or a latex document
created with tikzDevice.
