Indeed I'm using the axis statement with the at option (see below). In this
case las(=0) does not work. I want to use the at option with the labels
because these should reflect the values of a second parameter which is
included in the plot.
axis(side=4,at=c(0,1000*(max2/max1),2000*(max2/max1),3000*(max2/max1),4000*(
max2/max1)),
labels=c("0","1000","2000","3000","4000"),
ticks=F, col=5, cex=0.5, las=0)

I presume you are using axis. Its documentation says
If at is not given, then axis uses the the following procedure to place
the tick mark labels. axis rotates the tick mark labels to be parallel to
the axes if the graphical parameter las is 0, horizontal if las is 1, and
perpendicular to the axes if las is 2. (This overrides the current value
of the graphical parameter srt .)
So I suspect you want to use las, unless you did give `at'.
I am not aware of any difference due to the use of postscript(), but
there are different versions of that in different versions of S-PLUS so we
would need more details.
