For convenience on my end since the plot was generated on a server and
having to actually grab the file would have required a ftp or scp. A
screenshot would have gotten the point across as I just wanted to show what
it the problem looks like. If necessary, I can send the actual svg if that
helps in debugging in anyway.
I can produce a graph on my local machine, but on the server the same code
you used produces that exact same problem I mentioned. It doesn't appear to
be any argument issue in CairoSVG or hist() itself, but rather some inherent
R parameter value which differs between the server and my own and your
machine. Anyone have any ideas what that might be?
