Hi there, I've hit a bump in writing postscript files with special characters in the WinAnsi encoding on a windows machine. Here's some sample code: ########################################### postscript(file = "test.eps", encoding="WinAnsi.enc", width = 3, height = 5.5, onefile = TRUE, horizontal=FALSE, family = "sans", title =

Dear All, I would like to export, as a pdf file, a plot with the LaTeX font lmodern as the font of my graph. Could somebody please help me? Thanks in advance, Paul

Hi, after a lengthy but unsuccessfull search I couldn't come up with a solution to the following problem: I would like to have a "comma" instead of a "point" as the decimal point in my graphics, i.e. postscript and pdf files, for I write my thesis in German. My system is: OS: Debian Unstable R-Version: 2.0.1 System locale: de_DE at euro Could someone, please, help

With R 2.3.1 on Windows, I've noticed that it defaults to the "WinAsci.enc" encoding, which throws up an error when viewed with the default install of GhostScript/GSView (versions 8.51/4.7 respectively). I didn't have this problem prior to upgrading to 2.3.1 as I can view all my old PS graphs and they don't have the WinAsci encoding. I've got around this problem by

Dear R wizards: I believe some more font encoding info. some of the font encodings work, others do not: IsoLatin1, MacRoman, WinAnsi, and PDFDoc seem fine. AdobeStd, AdobeSym, ISOLatin2, ISOLatin9, and TeXtext seem broken, in that the resulting output file is silently corrupt. The font encoding error does not appear in the postscript device driver, and it works fine. It would be nice if

dear R wizards--- I would like to do some book-on-demand printing at a popular printer named lulu, but lulu requires inclusion even of the basic postscript fonts. Interestingly, my book itself does not need the 14 base acrobat fonts, only the embedded R figures do. Of course, I really would like to get pdftex to embed the fonts, but how to do this is not obvious either. [This method seems

The report on R_help about problems loading package irr (in a UTF-8 locale, it seemed) prompted me to look a little deeper. There are quite a few packages with Latin-1 chars in their .R files, and a couple in UTF-8. Apart from non-ASCII chars in comments, this is a problem as the code concerned cannot be represented in some locales R runs in (for example Japanese on Windows). It happens

Hello to all I've got a question concerning use of fonts while making plots in R. I wanted to know if it is possible for me to use polish letters in functions like text() title() etc. Looked up characters, which can be obtained via Hershey(), but there are none of them. I made plots using postscript(), pdf() or png() device to export them to MSWord or LaTeX. Windows ANSI CE #dec codes of

Maybe I'm just overlooking something, but I can't figure out how to set/change the locale of a file loaded into the built-in script editor on Windows. The generic issue is that if I make a teaching script on a Mac, save it to a USB stick, and open it in the script editor in a classroom, then special Danish characters in the comments come out as two-byte sequences, which are pretty

Dear SavioRs, I am doing some research where characters in different microsoft fonts serve as experimental stimuli. Hence, in plot labels, I would like to display the characters in specific microsoft fonts. I have figured out how to display letters and numbers, but I am having trouble with symbols such as capital delta. Before I go further, I am using R 2.2.1 on Windows XP with everything

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

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

Concerns: OS Win32 / R 2.5.0 Recently (IIRC not with R < 2.3.0), I had some problems including postscript graphics produced in R into LaTeX with MikTeX [version 2.5.2574]: yap, respectively GhostScript/GSView (versions 8.54/4.7 resp.) threw errors. In fact, I realized this was just the same problem as reported in http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/06/06/28858.html Apparently, by

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
