Dear Prof. Ripley, Your version does work indeed, I hadn't tested this one. I tried the following two versions where neither of them did:
Version 1: > postscript(filename="myfile.ps") > par(mfrow=c(2,2),family="mono") > plot(1:10) > plot(1:10) > plot(1:10) > plot(1:10) > dev.off() Version 2: > postscript(filename="myfile.ps") > plot(1:10,family="mono") > dev.off() Best regards, Benjamin Otto -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Prof Brian Ripley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Tuesday, December 11, 2007 5:48 PM An: Benjamin Otto Cc: R-Help Betreff: Re: [R] Mono in postscript device On Tue, 11 Dec 2007, Benjamin Otto wrote: > Hi, > > Plotting a graphic into a postscript device using family="mono" > returns the following error message: > >>> family 'mono' not included in PostScript device > > Looking at postscriptFonts() however lists the "Courier" font as > availeable mono font. So where is the problem? The 'problem' is that you have not provided us with reproducible code, and used an obsolete version of R. At least some of the ways you might have done this you needed to specify the 'fonts' argument to postscript(). As a minimal example, > postscript(family="mono") > plot(1:10) > dev.off() works in R 2.6.1. If that does not work for you, you need to update. If it does, you need to consider what you did differently. > Thanks guys for your help. > Best regards > > Benjamin > > sessionInfo() > > R version 2.5.0 (2007-04-23) > i386-pc-mingw32 [...] -- Brian D.
