In my PDF viewer (okular, debian LINUX) the file looks ok. This may very well be a problem with your pdf viewer. E.g. at work, we are running fedora and there I have experienced a number of problems like yours caused by a problem with font substitution in some version of the poppler library which is uses by many LINUX PDF viewers. Try to view the file in acrobat reader and possibly other viewers. Also: the files I had issues with printed correctly. cu Philipp -- Dr. Philipp Pagel Lehrstuhl für Genomorientierte Bioinformatik Technische Universität München Wissenschaftszentrum Weihenstephan Maximus-von-Imhof-Forum 3 85354 Freising, Germany http://webclu.bio.wzw.tum.de/~pagel/ ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
