R help - Jun 2012 - Math labels in .eps files

Dear list,

I have non-ascii labels that I want to include somethow in a .eps file for
inclusion into a LateX document. Is this possible?

What I see is that the (attached)  png file looks ok but the .eps renders
all non-ascii labels at the bottom as [..].


I've searched around enough to learn that including math labels in a .eps
is a problem. Hower, is there a solution too somewhere?


/Fredrik

I don't think it is a problem: see ?plotmath.  But the problem here is 
that you seem to want glyphs not in the plotmath set.

You have neither told us your platform nor the R code you used (as 
requested in the posting guide), so we cannot reproduce this.  But see 
?postscript and its section 'Encodings'.  You need to specify a 
PostScript encoding which contains your glyphs ... if there is one. 
Note too

See Also:

      ?cairo_ps? for another device that can produce PostScript.
