I would like to add characters to R plots but need separate control over
height, width, skew, rotation etc. These parameters result from a
statistical computation within R. Also I need to be able to control stroke
and fill parameters independently. Finally, I need more than just ASCII
characters, but symbols and possibly Chinese/Japanese. What I've found so
far points to a solution where I send the character and scale information
to an external script that produces what I need in Postscript, then import
via the grImport package. I assume there is a more direct way via editing R
sources, such as inserting a transformation into text(), but that's
probably not a good idea in the long run. Or is there a better strategy?
