Hi all,
I have found after upgrading to R 4.0.0 (among other upgrades so this may
not be the cause) that the degree symbol doesn't work correctly on Ubuntu
18.04. Googling brought me to this thread that appears related.
I tried running:
cairo_pdf()
plot.new(); text(0.5,0.5, bquote(120*degree*N),

Thanks, Paul. I've created a bug report to keep track of this
(https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17748), and taken
the liberty of adding you to CC. We'll need to cherry-pick the fix for
R 3.6.3 in Fedora 31.

Hi
Thanks for your input on this Iñaki and Nicolas.
I am starting testing an R fix for this problem today.
As suggested, the plan is to allow the R user to specify a font family
other than "symbol" for plotmath output (or, more generally, in R
parlance, for 'font=5' or 'fontface=5') on a Cair

Dear list
On Fedora 31 the pango library has recently updated to version >= 1.44
and in doing so has switched to using the HarfBuzz library (from
FreeType) and dropped Adobe Type 1 font support. This causes problems
with plotmath as all bar one of the glyphs doesn't render (see
