[R] Words appear to be bolded in the PDF output
Hi all, I have written a note near each of my graphs using mtext. mtext(text,side=1,line=4,cex=0.5,adj=0) Then I have exported the graphs as a PDF file. pdf(file=name,paper='a4',width=7.27,height=10.69) The mtext appears OK in R. But it looks like it is bolded in the PDF file. http://n4.nabble.com/file/n2016971/graph.png I am not sure if this is actually my monitor/computer's problem. But I want to see if it can be fixed in R.

That seems backwards to me. I'd begin with the pdf() call, then do the
plot, then dev.off(). Maybe that's what you meant: if not, I've no
idea what you did.

That's a fairly low res png file, not a pdf file, but even so, it
doesn't look like font = 2 to me. It's a considerably larger cex
value than the other text, but it's still not bold.

Decide after seeing what it looks like printed.

Re: [R] Words appear to be bolded in the PDF output
Hi, Taking a wild guess, it looks to me that you might have overlaid several times the same text, plot.new() text(0.5,0.5,rep(test,10)) HTH, baptiste On 20 April 2010 08:54, chrisli1223 chri...@austwaterenv.com.au wrote: Hi all, I have written a note near each of my graphs using mtext. mtext(text,side=1,line=4,cex=0.5,adj=0) Then I have exported the graphs as a PDF file. pdf(file=name,paper='a4',width=7.27,height=10.69) The mtext appears OK in R.

Re: [R] Words appear to be bolded in the PDF output
Problem solved. Yes, I found that the text is overlaid several times! Thank you very much for your help, greatly appreciated. :) -- View this message in context: http://n4.nabble.com/Words-appear-to-be-bolded-in-the-PDF-output-tp2016971p2018219.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. __ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
