Dear All, a long time ago I ran a cluster analysis where the dissimilarity matrix used consisted of Dmax (or Kolmogorov-Smirnov distance) values. In other words the maximum difference between two cumulative proportion curves. This all worked very well indeed. The matrix was calculated using Dbase III+ and took a day and a half and the clustering was done using MV-ARCH, with the resultant

Dear R experts- I'm running R 1.2.3 (2001-04-26) on Linux. I need to get special symbols, such as a circle with a dot in it as used to indicate Solar units in astronomy, into my plot axis labels. How can I do this? Using the R documentation on the Hershey font sets, one can plot a Solar symbol within the world coordinates of a plot like this: >plot(1:10,1:10)

Dear All, I have a dissimilarity matrix which I happily convert to a distance object by running: X <- as.dist(Y) and I can happily now run either hclust(X) or agnes(X). So that the various bits of output are labelled correctly I would dearly like to be able to give names to the columns and rows of X, as would happen if I ran: mydata<-read.table("clipboard",header=T)

To whom it may concern, I am e-mailing you concerning the use of Arial Font in the program R and I am using a mac.

Hi I'm using 2.6.0 on Windows XP SP2. I realise I'm on an old version, please tell me if the problem is fixed in the newer versions. When I try and use the graphics window menu to save a graph as PDF, I get the following error, and no PDF produced Error: Invalid font type In addition: Warning messages: 1: font family not found in PostScript font database 2: font family not found in

Dear r-helpers, When I do an xYplot and display the result in a JavaGD() window, the font is sans-serif (presumably Helvetica). When I send the figure to a pdf, I get a serif font (presumably times). How do I insure that the font in the pdf is indeed the default sans serif? > sessionInfo() R version 2.4.1 (2006-12-18) i386-apple-darwin8.8.1 locale: C attached base packages: [1]

I am using the standard phonetic font "Doulos SIL" in a graph (http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&id=DoulosSILfont) This is an example: windowsFonts(IPA="TT Doulos SIL") barplot(c(1,2,3,4,5),names=c("\u{0251}","\u{0252}","\u{0253}","\u{0254}","\u{0255}"),family="IPA") However, I am unable

Hi, I'd like to use the font "Frutiger" in my pdf files generated by R. but I only manage this if I create a postscript file with postscript() and the option family = c( "LT_14361.afm", "LT_14363.afm", "LT_14373.afm", "LT_14375.afm" ) and convert this postscript file to pdf. If I specify the option 'family' like above ( =

Hi, I need to generate some figure using the Arial font as a requirement for PLoS. Following their guidelines, I have converted the windows font files arial.tff files to .afm using tff2afm (exec file from MikTeX), but when I try to generate a postcript file, the postcript device does not recognize the .afm files. The code I use to test the new font is the following:

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

Dear colleagues, Saving a plot with pdf gives a very nice result: pdf("myplot.pdf") par(font=1,family='serif') plot(pressure) dev.off() Doing the very same with other formats (png, jpeg, tiff) gives far worse results. Is there anything to do to make a plot in some other format than pdf look like the pdf? Hardly any journal accepts pdf files for figures, and most do accept png

Hi I am a novice user of R. I got hold of "R Graphics" by P. Murrell the other day and am trying to follow examples in the book. In chapter 3, the section on font specification gives 16 "basic" font families and face combinations available in R (Figure 3.9). However, the book also warns that even if a font specification is given, it does not mean that the font will always be

Hello, I very much enjoy rgl! But when converting the screen output to pdf using rgl.postscript I have encountered three problems: (1) I don't seem to have control over font sizes and point sizes (of added points) in the pdf output. I tried cex from "plot" but that does not have an effect. Initially I got some plots where fonts and especially points were far too small. But now

A professor here at Vanderbilt sent me the following code. Each of the text strings should right justify against the center vertical bar, but because of font issues it doesn't. I understand that there are workarounds, but I was just curious if this was consistent across all platforms. On linux with R 2.7.1 and R-trunk (r46103), both acrobat reader 8 and kpdf render it incorrectly. How
