Hello, R users.
I am trying to embed Computer modern fonts to an R plot and I get
the following error.

Error in embedFonts("cm.pdf", outfile = "cmembed.pdf", fontpaths =
c("cm-lgc/fonts/type1/public/cm-lgc", :
status -1 in running command 'gswin32c.exe -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -q -

In addition: Warning message:
In system(cmd) : gswin32c.exe not found
Operating system: Windows XP, SP2.
cm-lgc has been unzipped in the working directory "C:/Program Files/
R/R-2.10.1" and the AFM, PFB files are also in same directory.
The error message is telling us that you do not have Ghostscript
installed properly. While you are at it, you should probably updated R
as well.
