Hello, I have a small but nasty problem with the Computer Modern fonts in connection with Sweave.
Instead of giving my own code, it's probably better to look at a well established example. There is a nice introduction to using Sweave at Paul Murrell's website which can be found at: http://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~paul/R/CM/CMR.html Essentially, what I need from this page are the following 4 files for creating my final pdf: http://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~paul/R/CM/cmTutorial.Rnw ( This example needs the according Tex-package and the files for the symbol faces found at (the links are also given on the site): http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/cm-lgc.html http://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~paul/R/CM/cmsyase.afm http://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~paul/R/CM/cmsyase.pfb ) Creating the tex-file with > R CMD Sweave cmTutorial.Rnw and compiling it with > pdflatex cmTutorial.tex yields a perfect plot. BUT, if minus signs appear in the plot, it does not work poperly anymore! Just change the endpoints in the 'histogram' function to 'c(-59.5, 76.5)' ( instead of 'c(59.5, 76.5)' ) and run the two upper commands again. Then, I see a minus sign in the file 'cmTutorial-latticeShow.pdf' but NOT in the 'cmTutorial.pdf'. Very strange is also, that using sth. like mtext(text="-1.987",...) will give me a nice minus-sign in the pdf. ### Did anybody encounter this problem and could possibly help me with this question? How can pdflatex change something in the included pdf?
