Hi, I don't know if I am the first one to report the problem: in 2.8.0 dev2bitmap gained aa support, but "extra" is null if neither taa nor naa is specified. > dev2bitmap("plot.pdf",type="pdfwrite") Error in paste(shQuote(gsexe), " -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -q -sDEVICE=", type, : object "extra" not found >

Hi, using too long pathnames for bitmap() crash R on WinXP. I've verified that this is the case with R version 2.4.1 Patched (2007-03-25 r40958) and R version 2.5.0 alpha (2007-03-30 r40957). I cannot reproduce it on Linux. REPRODUCIBLE EXAMPLE: % Rterm --vanilla # Tell R where Ghostscript is gsexe <- "C:/gs/gs8.54/bin/gswin32c.exe"; gsexe <- "C:/Program

Michael Lapsley was suggesting on R-help direct copies to gif/png/jpeg. The following seems to do a sensible job for me of copying the current device to any bitmap format supported by gs. The manipulation is needed to work around assumptions made by postscript(), and I think better fixed in postscript() (but not a couple of days before a release). I want to make onefile=FALSE work on

This is a snip of my smb.conf file. This share will create a pdf file and deposit the output in a samba share for retrieval. It works. On the client side you add a printer pointing to the smbpdf share and give it a PS printer driver. When you print to this printer(smbpdf) it creates the pdf file. I'd like to change one thing and this thing is golden. When printing a file called file.txt the

Hi, I''m trying to automate the conversion of a PDF document received via a browser upload to a tiff image via ghostscript. I have the PDF data in a string, and I need the tiff data returned into a string. The general command I want to emulate is: type test.pdf | "c:\program files\gs\gs8.56\bin\gswin32c.exe" -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=tiffg4 -sOutputFile=- > test5.tiff

Hello, R users. I am trying to embed Computer modern fonts to an R plot and I get the following error. CM <- Type1Font("CM", + c(paste("cm-lgc/fonts/afm/public/cm-lgc/", + c("fcmr8a.afm", "fcmb8a.afm", "fcmri8a.afm", "fcmbi8a.afm"), sep=""), + "./cmsyase.afm")) > pdf("cm.pdf",

Hello R community, I am hoping to use a new package that I just installed called "grImport" to import ps images into R for further manipulation using either base graphics or grid. I downloaded the most recent version of Ghostscript from http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/ that I could find (v.8.56) for Mac OSX. However, I am apparently quite ignorant about how the required

Hello Everyone, I have a slight issue with configuring a PDF printer on my Samba servers. I have input the following into my smb.conf file and it does create the printer as well as work to create PDF files, except that it only functions when "printing" to that printer via Excel 2002. If I attempt it with anything else, even the Windows Test print, it fails. Now, in the Windows

Hi All: I've been struggling for a while trying to get grImport up and running. I'm on a Windows 7 (home premium 64 bit) machine running R-2.12.2 along with GPL Ghostscript 9.01. I've set my Windows PATH variable to point to the Ghostscript \bin and \lib directories, and I've created the R_GSCMD environment variable pointing to gswin32c.exe. I don't have any experience with

Hello, To fix some issues in working with gs 8.63 I had to upgrade to 8.64. I build the rpm from ghostscript-8.64-9.fc11.src.rpm. I get the following error when running gs -q -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dUseCropBox -dFirstPage=1 -dLastPage=1 -sOutputFile=/tmp/TIFF-%d.tif -r300 -sDEVICE=tiff12nc foobar.pdf # Error: /invalidfont in /findfont # Operand stack: #

Hello, I am trying to import an .eps file created with Adobe Illustrator and plot it in a Quartz window (I am using R 2.11.1 GUI 1.34 Leopard build 32-bit (5589) on MacOSx.5.8). I thought of using the PostScriptTrace() to convert my .eps file to RGML, and then use readPicture to plot the file, but the first step already fails (cf below). I also had a look at the add.image( ) example,

I couldn't run PostScriptTrace() from the package "grImport" without an error. At first the postscript program couldn't be found. however the problem persisted after the full path the postscript program was indicated. I read earlier post on the subject in vain. See the codes and output below. The file "Senegal_location_map.ps" was originally a "svg" file from:

Hello, I am a newer on asterisk. when I tried to send fax, I can not get success. After doing a lot of reseach, I decide to ask my question at here. Instead of using old fax machine, I want my system can send fax via t.38. Could anyone give me some idea to correct my configuration? Thanks a lot! Here is the detail: my system: *ubuntu 14.04 + asterisk 11.7* I use apt-get to install the ubuntu

Hi Gang, I'm trying to make an application to upload a tiff via a web interface, slap a cover page onto it, merge the two into a new tiff and send it out via txfax. I'm able to get it out to a fax machine using this sequence: /usr/bin/tiff2pdf /tmp/faxout/1229978819_filea.tif -o /tmp/faxout/1229978819_filea.pdf /usr/bin/gs -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -q -sDEVICE=pdfwrite

When I execute the following code: bitmap("test.pdf",type="pdfwrite") plot(1:10,1:10,main="ONE") plot(1:10,1:10,main="TWO") dev.off() the resulting file test.pdf contains four pages: graph ONE, graph TWO, graph ONE, graph TWO. I can recreate the problem with R version 1.2.1 and 1.2.2. I am using Aladdin ghostscript version 6.50. The temporary file

Hi Martin and Tim, I also have this bug. Though I think not necessarily with all the same fonts as Martin. Using Martin's code: https://imgur.com/a/ILUoe3H Fedora 39, Evince 45.0 It's a bug with Evince. I think. I think it's substituting in a font set that doesn't have all the required symbols. I think it should be possible to install the required fonts, but I haven't

I'm sure it's been solved before and probably more gracefully but here's the print string I used to accomplish printing from MS Word. gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dNOPAUSE -sOutputFile=/tmp/%s.pdf /var/spool/samba/%s;lpr -Pfaxit `strings %s|grep %%Title:|gawk '{print " -o phone="substr($5,1,11)}'` /tmp/%s.pdf;rm -f /tmp/%s.pdf

HI I?aki,? That's interesting.? I may be wrong but I think it's the Symbol font that's got the substitution bug, not Helvetica.? ? fc-match "Symbol" StandardSymbolsPS.t1: "Standard Symbols PS" "Regular" Is what I get, but then in the Evince properties it's telling me that it's substituting Symbol with "Noto Sans Regular", despite the

Hi I don't think this is an R issue (it is separate from the Cairo Symbol font problem). For PDF output, R actually relies on the Symbol font having the Adobe Symbol Encoding (Appendix D of the PDF Reference https://opensource.adobe.com/dc-acrobat-sdk-docs/pdfstandards/pdfreference1.7old.pdf) and just outputs the font as "Symbol", which relies on it being one of the Standard
