Now I do. With the tarball of R-devel aka the future R 2.7.0 (svn r44677), we
a) the same result of a bad R / gs interaction turning the bullets if we
use pdf() and the embedFonts()
b) however, using the shiny new cairo_pdf() device, no such problem arises.
So, given the bug report against R 2.6.2 and the continued problem under R
2.7.0, is this a valid problem? Or is it just a side-effect of ghostscript
manipulating the file ?
