Post-processing graphics in Adobe Illustrator 

 A while a ago  Rich posted  about  chartsnthings , the blog written by  Kevin Quealy  of the  New York Times  graphics department. One thing that stood out to both Rich and myself was that a couple of the NYT folks do sketches in R and then post-process the sketches with Adobe Illustrator. A good example is  Kevin's post  on Mariano Rivera's career.  

 Today, on the R-help mailing list,  Michael Friendly  pointed to a  tutorial  on the practicals of how to, you know, actually do post-processing with Illustrator.
