I am new to R, Sweave, and LaTeX. I am running StatET with Eclipse 3.7
on a Windows
7 x64 OS. StatET also includes the Sweave add-on, which I use to try and
compile a PDF document.
I also installed MiKTeX 2.9, because, previously, R could not execute texi2dvi
(presumably, because there was no TeX runner). Basically, no .tex file could
be compiled into PDF file. After I installed MiKTeX, I was successful at
compiling a .pdf file from .tex file.
However, the moment I introduce pdf() function into the .Rnw file, I get a
"fatal" error.
When trying to compile this simple .Rnw file:
======================================================%
\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\usepackage[OT1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{Sweave}
\begin{document}
\title{pdftest.Rnw}
\author{Egor}
\maketitle
<<echo=F, results=hide>>pdf(file='figure1.pdf')
plot(1:10,1:10)
dev.off()
@
\end{document}
======================================================
I get the following error message:
======================================================> Sweave(file =

Tell me if you need any more details.
Thanks in advance for your help!
