Hi there,
I am a Chinese R user. I hope to display Chinese character in a plot,
and than save it in PostScript format. I have read the article titled
"Non-Standard Fonts in PostScript and PDF Graphics", especially the
section about CJK fonts. I also tried the code:
pdf("chinese.pdf", width=3, height=1)
grid.text("\u4F60\u597D", y=2/3, gp=gpar(fontfamily="CNS1"))
grid.text("is 'hello' in (Traditional) Chinese", y=1/3)
dev.off()
however, it's not valid with postscript(). It seems that postscript()
need to set family in postscirpt(..., family = "CNS1"). Then all the
characters are in CJK font, and it's not what I hope to get. I hope the
Latin character is displayed in Helvetica.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
Try this ...
# Use "Helvetica" as default, but include "CNS1" as a font that
# will be used somewhere within the file
postscript("chinese.pdf", width=3, height=1, fonts="CNS1")
grid.text("\u4F60\u597D", y=2/3, gp=gpar(fontfamily="CNS1"))
grid.text("is 'hello' in (Traditional) Chinese", y=1/3)
dev.off()

Thank you very much, it works very well.
