I'm running Ubuntu 9.04. I could use some advice about fonts in postscript devices. > sessionInfo() R version 2.9.0 (2009-04-17) i486-pc-linux-gnu locale: LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8;LC_COLLATE=en_US.UTF-8;LC_MONETARY=C;LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8;LC_PAPER=en_US.UTF-8;LC_NAME=C;LC_ADDRESS=C;LC_TELEPHONE=C;LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US.UTF-8;LC_IDENTIFICATION=C attached base

When I use the postscript with the ComputerModernItalic family, minus signs are not properly displayed, but are changed into capital gammas. The attached test-postscript.pdf file illustrates the problem, which I created starting with the following R code: > postscript("test-postscript.eps", family = "ComputerModernItalic") > plot(seq(-5,5,1),seq(-5,5,1)) > dev.off()

I am stumbling into external font issues here and there. I presume using external lucida fonts is fairly rare, so I am more likely to stumble onto issues here. (of course, I often think I have stumbled onto bugs/features that are not.) So, I hope I am not imposing by reporting the following. [1] can R please not include fonts that it is not using? luafmfiles <-

Dear R wizards: Has anyone gotten the TeXtext font encoding to work? If I execute: if (is.null(postscriptFonts()$lucida)) { luafmfiles <- c("/usr/share/texmf/fonts/afm/yandy/lubright/lbr.afm", "/usr/share/texmf/fonts/afm/yandy/lubright/lbd.afm", "/usr/share/texmf/fonts/afm/yandy/lubright/lbi.afm",

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

Hello R users, Using R, Sweave and the cmsyase.afm font it is possible to write LaTeX documents including R figures with text in the Computer Modern Fonts: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{Sweave} \begin{document} <<echo = false, results = hide>>= CM <- Type1Font("CM", c(file.path("C:/texlive/2009/texmf-dist/fonts/afm/public/cm-lgc",

Hi all, We have a user that would like to create pdf plots using the Arial font. One way for her to do this is to use the Cairo graphics device which produces pdf's beautifully and embeds fonts automatically. She could also install the msttcorefonts package from ubuntu to obtain the Arial font. The problem is that she is using Sweave() to produce a document that contains the pdf plots,

Hello to the list, I noticed something that it seems weird to me with postscript device in dev.print function. Suppose this little code: x<-1:10 par(family="sans") plot(x, main="main") Using dev.print with pdf device brings no problem dev.print(device=pdf, file="test.pdf") But using postscript device dev.print(device=postscript, file="test.ps") I get

Just to add to this (I've been looking through the archive) problem with display unicode fonts in pdf document in R If you can use the Cairo package to create pdf on Mac, it seems quite happy with pushing unicode characters through (probably still font family dependant whether it will display) probstring <- c(' \u2264 0.2',' \u2268 0.4',' \u00FC 0.6',' \u2264

Dear all, I am sending a patch for extending pdf device to embed popup text and web links. I implemented this feature by using annotation object, a interactive feature of pdf. You can see a sample code for using this feature in the following, and sample pdf is in

Hi All! I have been messing around with this problem for about a week but to no avail! The following data has been cut down in order to make my question reproducible. The alldat data frame includes 2 columns: 1 date column and 1 factor column (equity names)).

Hi, I am using Extrafont package to install more fonts for my graphs. My primary graphic tool is ggplot2. I seem to have problem installing the package, but could not pinpoint where it is. I try to follow the instruction here: https://github.com/wch/extrafont I guess (but am not sure) the fonts are successfully installed. Problem encountered: 1. The following line sometimes yields an

Hi, I am trying to create a graph using Arial font (as required by PLoS One). I have read probably all posts in R-help on this topic, as wells as R-news 2006. The code I have been trying is following: Arial <- Type1Font(family="Arial", metrics=c("ArialMT.afm", "arial-BoldMT.afm", "Arial-ItalicMT.afm",

Dear R-help, I am trying to build R-2.2.0-patched (2005-11-07 r36217) on the head node of a Scyld cluster (dual Opteron 250s) using PGI compilers (v6.0). I used the flags suggested by Jennifer Lai on R-devel (taken from R-admin, except that I had to add -L/usr/X11R6/lib64 to LDFLAGS). The build went fine, but make check-all failed when running tests/Examples/graphics-Ex.R, at: > plot(1:2,

Hello all, I am trying to use computer modern fonts in my r grahics. I tried to do, as described here: http://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~paul/R/CM/CMR.html but unfortunately, it does not work. First of all I downloaded the cm-lgc package and the AFM and PFB-files from the page and put them in my R working directory, so far, so good. Then I tried to run the following code: > sn <-

Dear R wizards: [a] I believe that the pdf device does not yet fully support TeXencoding. (under R-2.2.0, the pdf file created with Textext as font encoding still dies when post-processed by ghostscript.) are there any workarounds, or are there utilities that would allow a TeXencoded font to be re-encoded/converted into ISOLatin, perhaps, which R could then handle beautifully? [b] is there a

Hi, I am trying to use Arial bold for labelling (font.lab =2), and use the fixed-width Courier bold for axis. I will export the plot to .ps format. I have been trying to use font.axis = 11, but that doesn't work when I exported the plot to a .ps file. I have been trying hard to read the help page of "postscript" these few days, but didn't get the courier font yet. Can you

Hello, I came across this by using R cmd check - otherwise I would probably not have noticed. One of my functions does something like this: # postscript() # plot(1, xlim = c(0, 10), ylim = c(0, 4), type = "n", ann = FALSE, axes = FALSE) # text(1:10, 2, c("a","b"), cex = seqcex, family="mono",font=2) Which results in the error: Error in text.default(1:10, 2,

Hi, Plotting a graphic into a postscript device using family="mono" returns the following error message: >> family 'mono' not included in PostScript device Looking at postscriptFonts() however lists the "Courier" font as availeable mono font. So where is the problem? Thanks guys for your help. Best regards Benjamin sessionInfo() R version 2.5.0
