R help - Mar 2008 - Try to save as PDF: font family not found in PostScript font database

Hi

I'm using 2.6.0 on Windows XP SP2.  I realise I'm on an old version,
please tell me if the problem is fixed in the newer versions.

When I try and use the graphics window menu to save a graph as PDF, I
get the following error, and no PDF produced

Error: Invalid font type
In addition: Warning messages:
1: font family not found in PostScript font database 
2: font family not found in PostScript font database 

Any help?

Thanks
Mick

Hi Michael,

I had the same problem using R 2.6.0. Not it's fixed in newer versions.
