One way would be to follow the directions in the link from ?pdf to ?embedFonts
and force fonts to be included (via a call to Ghostscript.)
Another strategy might be to look at the pdf code in the file ( or just call
`names(pdfFonts()`) )
and compare to the fonts used by your viewer.
I get quite a bit of information with this R command;
pdfFonts()[c('serif','sans','mono')]
My screen device is set to display the same fonts although they are listed in a
slightly different format:
quartzFonts()[c('serif','sans','mono')].
We Mac users have recurring problems with difficult-to-track-down issues of
font corruption which creates similar problems, but it seems to afflict the
screen device as well as pdf files. Generally one sees an extra copy using the
font management application. Removing the corrupted copy is generally
sufficient since it appears to the user that the OS has been smart enough to
have already installed a fresh copy of the damaged font.
