[R] tabstop in graphics

Hi, I'm curious about Tab stops in graphics: plot(1) text(1.2, 1.2, "Char\nMoreChar") works fine, but text(1.2, 0.8, "Char\tMoreChar") doesn't. Exporting with pdf tells me that the sign width is unknown. I'm not into informatics, so I don't know how a tabstop actually works. Is this at all
