OK, that is really helpful for diagnosis. In line 436 of your tex file, there is an NA, but it should really be this:
}% this brace ends the effect of ‘include external’ So the reason for LaTeX failure was this missing bracket }. And the reason for R to output NA here is most likely to be that in the LaTeX comment here, there are curly quotes, which are not ASCII characters. To solve the problem, you can either delete these non-ASCII characters, or tell Sweave that your encoding is not latin1, but UTF8. The latter way may not be directly possible, and this is why I brought up the issue to pgfSweave developers: https://github.com/cameronbracken/pgfSweave/issues/34 Regards, Yihui -- Yihui Xie <xieyi...@gmail.com> Phone: 515-294-2465 Web: http://yihui.name Department of Statistics, Iowa State University 2215 Snedecor Hall, Ames, IA On Thu, Oct 13, 2011 at 8:34 PM, Peter Meilstrup <peter.meilst...@gmail.com> wrote: > Sure, here's the generated .tex file: > http://pastebin.com/b9fTsr0h > > Peter > > On Thu, Oct 13, 2011 at 6:14 PM, Yihui Xie <x...@yihui.name> wrote: >> Seems to be weird.
