Hello everyone,
I'm currently trying to export a couple of graphs to pdf . Postscript
would be fine too, but I'm using odd page dimensions, which seem to be
overwritten when using the "ps2pdf" command. I'm using the pdfpages
package in LaTeX to put 6 graphs onto one page (this is why it ought to
be a pdf in the end).
I have two problems:
1. I'm using "arrows" to add error bars to the plots and they come out
all misplaced. I've read in older posts that this might be solved using
Acrobat Reader, but would this mean that I have to teach LaTeX (Lyx)
somehow to use Acrobat too?
2. I'm also using a legend that includes some dots (pch=1, pch=19),
which pdf obviously doesn't understand and plots little q symbols
instead (postscript will understand these symbols). Do I have to load a
certain font to get it to work?
