similar to: embedFonts() side-effect under 2.6.2 ?

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

I see. Peter, you are right about the font that causes the issue. Paul, thanks for your insights. I'll bring this to the Fedora font experts to see if we can arrive at a more permanent fix. I'll report back with any conclusion. @Martin: Meanwhile, at least you have options. One is to embed the fonts, either as Peter suggested or using cairo_pdf instead. Alternatively, Peter also has shown

Martin, I wouldn't rule out an R issue yet. Fonts are... tricky. So I'm cc'ing Paul Murrell here. I tried several viewers here and I see the following: Chrome, Firefox and Libreoffice Draw show the symbols; however, evince, okular and xournal++ agree on **not** showing the symbols. **If** there is a bug, the bug would be in fontconfig, because these ones AFAIK properly delegate on

Dear helpers, I'm trying out the embedFonts() to embed fonts into my pdf files. However, when I inspect the new pdf with a program designed to look for embedded fonts, I see that the fonts have in fact not been embedded. Below are my calls.

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

Dear All, Consider the following code: pdf(file="figure.pdf",family="URWPalladio") curve(dlnorm(x,0,1.5),0,10,xlim=c(0,10),ylim=c(0,0.85),axes=F,xlab="",ylab="f") segments(exp(-1.5^2),0,exp(-1.5^2),dlnorm(exp(-1.5^2),0,1.5),lty="dashed") segments(1,0,1,dlnorm(1,0,1.5),lty="dashed")

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

Dear list, First, I am not writing to ask about embedding Computer Modern font in graphics produced by R. I am generating plots to be saved using pdf() and postscript() in R, and I make use of some math expressions that are provided by R, namely, some greek letters. My question is, do I need to embed the fonts that include these math symbols (say, if they are going out for publication, to have

Dear Colleagues: I need to make a graphic that uses the Nimbus rather than Helvetica font family so that the font can be embedded in the encapsulated postscript file. This is to satisfy a requirement from a journal for electronic submission of figures. I do the following: postscript('lowess.eps', onefile=FALSE, pointsize=18, horizontal=FALSE, family='NimbusSan')

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 all, I discovered that the pdf device uses fonts to represent "points" symbols (as in plot(...,type="p",...) ). Namely it uses ZapfDingbats with symbol U+25cf. This can lead to problems when the font is not available, or available in another version (such as points being replaced by other symbols, or worst: slightly displaced). Furthermore, it also causes

Dear All, Consider the following piece of code: pdf(file="figure.pdf", family="Palatino") plot(0,0,type='n', xlim=c(-20,20), ylim=c(0,2),xlab="",ylab="",axes=F) text(-1.4,1.168,expression(italic("The font looks different when this is seen with Acrobat Reader!")),xpd=T) dev.off() When viewing the produced figure.pdf with kpdf (on Linux),

Hi all, I'm having problems embedding fonts in my graphics - and I've tried embedFonts to no avail. I have a pdf file and pdffonts tells me: name type emb sub uni object ID ------------------------------------ ----------------- --- --- --- --------- ZapfDingbats Type 1 no no no 5 0 Helvetica

dear R experts: I am playing with boxplots for the first time. most of it is intuitive, although there was less info on the web than I had hoped. alas, for some odd reason, my R boxplots have some fat black dots, not just the hollow outlier plots. Is there a description of when R draws hollow vs. fat dots somewhere? [and what is the parameter to change just the size of these dots?] Also, let

Hi I am having problems with the rendering of scientific symbols (mu and degree) in my plots. Whenever I use these symbols they are rendered changed (mu is changed to the proportionality symbol and degree is changed to something resembling a gamma) in the X-device. If I make a pdf of the plot and open the file in Evince or Okular symbols are also rendered wrong, however if I open the file

Dear list, I am trying to make eps file with embedded font.

Dear List, I am writing a paper in Hungarian, that I Sweave and than pdfLaTeX. Everything is fine, except for two accented letters in the graphs that behave strange, though on the screen and in eps exports they look perfect. The problem is that I need pdf graphs, since I would like to have a PDF after LaTeX-ing. For the example below I downloaded the following two font sets: 1. Latin Modern
