Re: [R] about saving format

2017-08-05 Thread Ulrik Stervbo
I have no clue how Rstudio saves plots, but when I was writing directly to
the pdf plot device I had similar problems. Setting useDingbats = TRUE made
everything work well.

I think it is more prudent - and less clicking here and there - to save
plots from within the script.

I imagine this works as expected:

pdf(useDingbats = TRUE)
plot(0, xlab = "Percent (‰)", ylab = "Another Percent (‰)”)
dev.off()

Best,
Ulrik

Two things:

First, to Lily: "‰" is the "per mil" symbol, not percent; it's not an 
ASCII symbol, which is why there are issues displaying it.  If you 
really mean percent, use "%" and you likely won't have problems.


And to confirm what Bert said:  this does work in R even if you use 
dev.copy() to copy from the regular R graphics device to pdf, but not 
from the RStudioGD to pdf.  So this really is an RStudio bug.

[R] about saving format

2017-08-05 Thread lily li
Hi R users,

I am using the plot() function, but have a problem. When saving as pdf
format, the ‰ sign in the x-axis label becomes (...) sign. I prefer to save
in pdf, as this format has a higher resolution than jpeg or other picture
formats. Could anyone tell me how to do then? Thanks.
