Sorry, no as you haven't given us the minimum information asked for in the
posting guide and we are reduced to attempted mind reading.
What is 'font=6'?
R only has font = 1 to 5. There is an extension on the windows() device
only (but you have not mentioned an OS): nowadays the use of
par(family=) is preferred. So a likely answer is to use
par(family="serif")
BTW, this is not a 'greek character'. It is the mathematical symbol
phi,
and that is distinct from the Greek character, and not in whatever
'font=6' is.
