######################## The apparently "broken" strings in the PostScript code you quote below are perfectly normal in PostScript. When dealing with text in a variable-width font, a PS driver will typically split continuous text into chunks, to allow for effects like kerning (or other adjustments of spacing) between the chunks. ########################
Let give a few more details. If I were to leave the plot as a postscript file, there wouldn't be a problem. I am, however, attempting to convert to a pgf file with the pgfSweave package (which utilizes eps2pgf). http://www.rforge.net/pgfSweave/ When converted to pgf, the breaking of strings is quite obvious (see attachment). http://www.nabble.com/file/p23324954/pgfSweave-example-boxplot.pdf pgfSweave-example-boxplot.pdf I have been in contact with the developers of pgfSweave, but they cannot replicate my problem. Their postscript devices do not break apart the strings, so the pgf files have correctly spaced axes labels. They referred me to the forums for additional support. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/postscript-printer-breaking-up-long-strings-tp23322197p23324954.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
