R help - Mar 2011 - embed latex beamer sans serif default font into R plot

Hello,
I have seen instructions on how to embed Latex Computer Modern fonts into R, but
these are the default serif fonts. I am trying to embed the default font used
for Latex beamer (theme Warsaw), which is a sans serif font and may be the
default LateX Computer Modern sans serif font.    Does anyone know the names of
the font files?
 
Thanks
Heemun

Probably the best way to do this is by using the tikzDevice package to create
your graphs.  This creates TeX commands to create the graph using the same fonts
and settings as the rest of the document.  The pgfSweave package may also be of
interest (it uses tikzDevice to do sweaving).
