I'm attaching a file foo.Rnw and I'm hoping some of you might run it through your R & latex systems to find out if the double-quotes in typewriter font turn out as black boxes (as they do for me). If you don't use Sweave, but you have a system with a working version of R and LaTeX, the file gives the instructions you need to use to process the file. The The file itself explains the problem. You can see the flawed output on my web site http://pj.freefaculty.org/latex/foo.pdf I'm running Ubuntu Linux 8.10 with R 2.8.1 and TexLive 2007 (which is provided with the distribution). This is not a new problem, I noticed it two years ago while using TeTeX on Fedora Linux, and so I doubt that this is specific to TeXLive. Back then, I took the path of resistance and stopped using the typewriter font. That is becoming inconvenient, however. I would sincerely appreciate any pointers you have. -- Paul E.

Oddly enough upquote.sty says explicitly It does not affect \tt, \texttt, etc. But that seems to be false. Ben Bolker
Paul,
The file did not make it to the list.
Did you try loading Sweave with the 'noae' option, that is:
\usepackage[noae]{Sweave}
This *may* solve your issue.

Well, I do get the attachment, and don't understand why you don't. But if you are willing, you can get the file here, same directory as the dvi and pdf output: http://pj.freefaculty.org/latex/foo.Rnw>-- Paul E.
