similar to: PDF graphics -- color weirdness (PR#2281)

Dear Prof. Ripley, thks for your response and no, I have not looked at 2.0.0 beta version; blame on me, but I could not spare time by now for doing so; instead I looked at: http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/fullrefman.pdf as well as on my local one in: 'rw1091/doc/manual/refman.pdf'. Hopefully this clarified things; thks for taking your time and patience. Best, Bernhard >

I am checking a package with R CMD check and everything is fine until the pdf portion of the checking process and the errors documented at the end of this message happen. I have looked at the pdf that is created and the typesetting is not perfect, but it is acceptable (readable). I am no good at latex (something I plan to remedy in the next large paper I have to write), so is this acceptable for

I have just tried out a series of apps on Wine Linux Slackware 8.0 on one side, Win98 on the other. Most fail. Here is a list: Cindex (indexing program) SKY index (indexing program) Framemaker (typesetting program) Quark Xpress (typesetting program.) Let me take the last item as a simple example. I get a long list of messages as follows: --------------------------------------------------------

Consider the following example : data(iris) attach(iris) par(bg = 'midnightblue', fg = 'yellow') plot(Petal.Length, Petal.Width, main = "Fisher's iris data", sub = "3 kinds") ##>>> gives black axis labels and titles ... ## Currently, the plot I want is produced by par(bg = 'midnightblue', fg = 'yellow', col.axis='yellow',

Hello R-folks, I don't get the color of the legend in a lattice-plot right. I select a palette from RColorBrewer and use (with a col = mypalette argument) it in the barchart plot. The resulting graph shows the new palette in the graph, but uses the standard palette in the legend rectangles. Adding a col argument into auto.key uses the new palette with the legend text, but not in the

There appears to be a bug in the R xfig() driver. When I run a simple example, eg > data(InsectSprays) > boxplot(count ~ spray, data = InsectSprays, col = "lightgray") the boxplot is fine. Doing the same thing after > xfig(file='test.fig') and then opening in Xfig (ver3.2 patchlevel 2) on my Linux box produces boxplots where the boxes, although correctly shaded in,

Hoping this is not off topic... I am in the process of writing some tutorials for my students for learning R, and naturally I'm using Sweave for this. So suddenly a question occurred to me: LaTeX has a recommended way of typesetting the TeX and LaTeX symbols, via the \TeX and \LaTeX commands. Is there a similar command for the R symbol, or in general are there any

I have successfully installed and launched Sibelius (music typesetting software) on linux (with codeweavers preview 4, w/ a fake_windows install). It works fairly well, and would probably deserve a 4 on the app database. Except for the fonts, which kind of defies the purpose of a typesetting software! Here are the symptoms and some log activities : * No musical symbols are displayed (except

Hello Because I want to use different true type fonts with latex, I''m using the XeTeX typesetting engine for my sweave-documents. I''m using Lyx with Sweave on a Windows 7 PC and have set up LyX to work with XeTeX according to the following instructions: http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/XeTeX Because the input file for XeTeX is assumed to be in UTF-8 encoding, I set the encoding

Dear List, I'm trying to typeset some chemical ions in axis labels. These have both super and subscript components, and for some, I need a superscript "-". In LaTeX I might use $NO_3^-$ to do the typesetting, but I'm having a problem getting the correct invocation for expression: > expression(NO^{-}[3]) Error: syntax error, unexpected '}' in

Hola! I ask here since I learnt from this list that the LaTeX package listings should be good for typesetting R code. I encountered one problem: \begin{lstlisting} X %*% V \end{lstlisting} in the output the * in %*% disappears! same with %/%, etc, the / disappears. Any ideas? Kjetil -- Kjetil Halvorsen. Peace is the most effective weapon of mass construction. --

Hello, I would like to know if it is possible to insert LaTeX typesetting in R output. I want to obtain a graph with LaTeX label in order to incorporate it as postscript or pdf, x<-seq(0,1,length=100) y<-x*x plot(x,y,xlab="$X$",ylab="$X^2$")

Others have commented on the usefulness of adding an explicit list of what should be included in the kernel. I second that. There''s another thing that''s tripped me up: While iproute2 compiles and installs easily (on a Red Hat 6.1 box), the documentation is in a format that - while not obscure to old Unix hands - requires compilation, which requires: "To make documentation,

Hi, I am typesetting R code in TeX using the listings package. I have experimented with various settings for the text, but all look a bit ugly. This might be because I have no typographic experience ;-) I would really appreciate if people sent me the settings they use for the listings package (eg in the \usepackage line, or \lstset, I am thinking about choices for basicstyle, ... etc). I

R-users, I would like to take advantage of R's mathematical typesetting capabilities in the graphical environment using text(..., expression(...)), however, I can't figure out how to include in the expression some evaluated function. For example, > x <- 1:8 > plot(1:10, 1:10) > text(5, 5, expression(sum(x[i], i == 1, length(x))) # would like "8"

R-devel doc/NEWS.Rd (SVN 57472) contains: \item There are two new options for typesetting PDF manuals from Rd files. These are \samp{beramono} and \samp{inconsolata}, and used the named font for mononspaced output. They are intended to be used in combination with \samp{times}, and \samp{times,inconsolata,hyper} is now the default for the reference manual and

In Sweave, if the locale is set to C, non-ASCII characters are not handled nicely even if I declare the encoding of the file to be "UTF-8". I'm trying to find a workaround for this, because I'm using Sweave from within TeXShop. TeXShop runs its typesetting engines in the C locale, and non-ascii characters are messed up. Is there a way to declare that I am in a

Is it possible to create plot bty=o with different scale of left- and right x-axis? In my documents, by typesetting, bty=u looks disruptively. At 2nd: how to frame the whole box (including title and axes labels) and resize to landscape-oriented rectangle? Tomas Bayer
