Hello, today I upgraded my system from Kubuntu 11.04 to 12.04 and installed wine 1.4. Now, most my Windows apps (e.g. the "configure wine" program) have ugly, almost unreadable fonts TTF-Fonts are installed and working properly when explicitly chosen, but all the "standard" fonts (like for menus, window titles and so on) are bold, grainy and not anti aliased. I don't know

Hi Ilia, I'm running Arch Linux, R 3.4.0. Here's my test.pdf from your minimal example: https://ptpb.pw/HxsA.pdf It doesn't look pixelated to me... Here's a post that I wrote when I solved my last font problem in R, almost 2 years ago: https://stackoverflow.com/a/40940331/5087283 I had to install some Microsoft font packages, which is sad, because there are some perfectly

Hi, Couldn't find the answer searching the forum. I would like install Wine on a system that has Ubuntu 9.10 but NO access to the Internet. I have another system with Ubuntu 8.04 which can access Internet, but the instructions at http://www.winehq.org/download/deb seem to imply that it would install the Wine on my 8.04 machine. Is there any binary I could download that I could put on a

Is there an easy workaround for not having the Lucida Sans Unicode font under Wine? Can this lack of what is standard (at least for WinXP I think) be considered a bug? (if so, I will start a new bug # for it).

Interesting. I did not have the package installed, but I did at some point extract Helvetica from some MacOSX font files and R was using that just fine until 3.3. This is how the plot looks in 3.4 (still using Helvetica): https://ptpb.pw/HikX.pdf . After removing Helvetica, installing the ttf-mscorefonts-installer package, and running fc-cache --force the plot looks like this: https://ptpb.pw/CM8A.pdf Also note that the standard pdf device works fine: https://ptpb.pw/3Ml1.pdf , it's just the cairo devices (both pdf and svg) that have the issue. Unfortunately I need to use cairo_pdf due to...

Maybe the Cairo device should be giving better warning messages. Anyway it sounds like you are describing...

Greetings All. According to the PLoS (Public Library of Science) Guidelines for Figure preparation, if a figure is submitted as EPS rather than TIFF then "Figure text must be in Arial font" -- see: [1] http://www.plosntds.org/static/figureGuidelines.action#text and also other sections in that web-page [2] http://www.plosntds.org/static/figureGuidelines.action Now, Arial font is not

Hi all, I have the following problem: Since R 3.4.0, italic fonts rendered on Cairo devices appear pixelated. Here's a minimal example: cairo_pdf('test.pdf') plot(1:10, ylab=expression(italic(test))) dev.off() The same problem occurs with bolditalic, but not bold. I am using Debian Stretch. Several friends tried the same on their machines, another Debian machine has the same
