evince not showing "greek" and "math" in *.pdf plots
Hi Martin
Probably not the answer you're looking for but on the latest Fedora 39 (workstation edition) both locally, and on a freshly installed VM (with just R-core installed), all fonts render correctly for me in evince.
$ evince --version
GNOME Document Viewer 45.0
$ R --version
R version 4.3.3 (2024-02-29) -- "Angel Food Cake"

evince not showing "greek" and "math" in *.pdf plots
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:

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

evince not showing "greek" and "math" in *.pdf plots
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

evince not showing "greek" and "math" in *.pdf plots
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

evince not showing "greek" and "math" in *.pdf plots
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

evince on centos5.1
is there something other than evince on centos 5.1 to view pdf's?
Every time I am remoted in using vncviewer and look at attached emails
it KILLS my X11 session.
If I am at my desktop it works fine.
xpdf used to work fine on 4.X - but it was removed in 5.X.
Is there an alternative?
Thanks,

Embedding R's math expressions fonts for graphics generated by pdf() and postscript()
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

pdflatex: fuzzy fonts in Evince, but not on paper output
Hi,
I've been using LaTeX for a few years on Mac OS X, and I'd like to use
it on CentOS now. I installed a complete environment using 'yum
groupinstall "Authoring and Publishing"' and then installing tetex-xdvi,
plus manually installing the 'memoir' class.
I can run 'latex document.tex' ok: the resulting .dvi looks nice in
xdvi. When running

Wrong symbol rendering in plots (Ubuntu)
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 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

PDF Reader/Editor for CentOS 5.7 (32 bit)?
I had, in the past, a .pdf reader that also permitted me to fill in
some information, when I received a .pdf file.
I have KPDF installed, but that seems to only have Reader capability.
Trying to install xpdf, with yum, I get this dependency error from rpmforge:
1:xpdf-3.02-8.el5.rf.i386 from rpmforge has depsolving problems

ghostscript update breaks evince
Today's ghostscript.x86_64 0:8.70-21.el6_8.1 update causes evince to refuse to
display any postscript file. Running evince from a terminal session, I see the
errors:
invalidaccess -7
invalidaccess -7
invalidaccess -7
** (evince:1252): WARNING **: Error rendering thumbnail
Downgrading to ghostscript.x86_64 0:8.70-21.el6 corrects the problem.
Anyone else seeing this?
