Hi

Thanks very much for the report, diagnosis, and patch!

I have implemented your fix in the development version of R.

Read the source again more carefully. I think I get the solution:

Change the following line in PDFfontNumber function in devPS.c:

num = 1000 + (cidfontIndex - 1)*5 + 1 + face;
to
num = 1000 + (cidfontIndex - 1)*5 + face;

It appears two times in the function.

However, I don't know how to compile the whole R distribution on Windows
platform. Would anyone here like to give a test? Thanks in advance!

I have compiled R 2.11.1 on a Linux machine, and confirmed that PDFfontNumber function in devPS.c (grDevices library) has a bug, which causes the plain face of CID fonts cannot be accessed when CID fonts were used together with default font family in pdf().

the following is the patch.
