Tried to do a plot just now and got an error:
Error in text.default(2, 6, main, cex = cex) :
X11 font -adobe-helvetica-%s-%s-*-*-%d-*-*-*-*-*-*-*, face 1 at size
16 could not be loaded
This is reproducible (in my current environment) via:
par(mfrow=c(2,2))
plot(1:10)
text(2,6,"Oh, hell!",cex=2)
This is of course not the real context in which the error originally
manifested itself. The "real context" triggered no such problems
until I started messing about trying to solve the "inconsolata" font
problem that I posted about recently.
Can anyone tell me (in simple comprehensible terms, please) how I might
make the required font available so that it can be loaded? I reiterate,
please keep it simple. I find fonts toadally incomprehensible!
Note that I did as I was advised and installed texlive-2012 for Fedora 17
following the instructions detailed in the website that was given (and which
I cited in my previous email). Didn't help a bit.
For what it's worth, here is my session info:
