[R] Embedding Fonts in eps Files - Required by Publisher
The publisher requires embedded fonts and the eps files that R produces don't pass its tests. How can I force the fonts (just default fonts) to be embedded. embedFonts seems to only embed unusual fonts, not the default ones that are used in a simple eps generated by using "postscript". I've tried: ps2pdf14 -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress bland-altman_v2.eps bland-altman_v2.pdf pdftops -eps bland-alman_v2.pdf bland-altman_v2_embed.eps but the box size is wrong and I don't know how to correct it - if I correct the bounding box in bland-altman_v2_embed.eps, the size is correct but not all of the figure shows. The reference I found mentions fixing the "box size" but doesn't say how this is done. I would appreciate any insight on this. Rick B.

I usually use the command line options 'ps2eps --size b3 --ignoreBB'. -- Karl Ove Hufthammer
