I hope the original poster fixed this a long time ago, but I had the same
problem and here is how I fixed it:

- go to the application Fontbook
- check if the Arial font has duplicates, and delete them, even if they are
set to "Off"
- restart the computer.

Which you would have found with a search of the SIG-Mac list had you followed the advice that Prof. Ripley gave at the time. I do not delete both copies of the duplicated fonts when this has occurred on my machine ... only the ones that were defective.

I was re-running some code that I hadn't run in a couple of months to make
barplots in R.  I didn't change a single thing in the script, but the
plots wouldn't work this time around. The plot itself (the bars and axes) will graph in the window, but no text appears. In the console it says I
have a number of errors, all of which say "no font could be found for
family 'Arial'".
I have not knowingly changed anything in R and I would like to be able to make barplots with labels and titles again. Does anyone know how to fix
this?

Please realize that there are multiple R mailing lists and that posting to this list is the wrong one. The Nabble interface obscures that fact among many other facts, including where the real Archives are.
