  • Can you please provide your code for generating this dendrogram? And any details you can provide would also help a lot. For example, what data are you trying to cluster? what linkage did you use? Without a complete example, it is difficult to help you. – acylam Apr 30 '17 at 18:54
  • Please read the info about [how to ask a good question](http://stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-ask) and how to give a [reproducible example](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5963269/how-to-make-a-great-r-reproducible-example/5963610). This will make it much easier for others to help you. – Jaap Apr 30 '17 at 19:13
  • make the figure bigger, text smaller, use fewer features, etc. all the text is running together making it unreadable – rawr Apr 30 '17 at 19:51

Have a look here: http://www.sthda.com/english/wiki/beautiful-dendrogram-visualizations-in-r-5-must-known-methods-unsupervised-machine-learning

For instance, using cex argument to change the size of the font, e.g.

plot(hc, cex = 0.6)

Or try other ways of visualising like as an unrooted phylogenetic tree:

library("ape")
plot(as.phylo(hc), type = "unrooted", cex = 0.6, no.margin = TRUE)
