Hi I am having problems with the rendering of scientific symbols (mu and degree) in my plots. Whenever I use these symbols they are rendered changed (mu is changed to the proportionality symbol and degree is changed to something resembling a gamma) in the X-device. If I make a pdf of the plot and open the file in Evince or Okular symbols are also rendered wrong, however if I open the file with Xpdf or Acroread they are rendered correctly.

I did not have this problem before, it arose after I upgraded both R and my system (Ubuntu karmic koala to lucid lynx), so I can not tell for sure if the problem is R-related or Ubuntu related (I have posted in a Ubuntu forum also http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1325289).

Please let me know if you have any idea of how to fix this, or if you can confirm this is not an R-related issue.

Thank you very much in advance,
