Perhaps you can use ps.options(family = "...") to set the font family globally.
If you really want to control R fonts through LaTeX, you can try the tikzDevice package (optionally with knitr) following the instructions in https://github.com/yihui/knitr-examples/blob/master/059-tikz.Rnw This allows you to generate R plots with font style consistent with your main document. Two other examples: https://github.com/downloads/yihui/knitr/knitr-manual.pdf and https://github.com/downloads/yihui/knitr/knitr-graphics.pdf 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, Nov 8, 2012 at 7:00 AM, Karen Kotschy <karen.kots...@gmail.com> wrote: > Dear help list > > Does anybody know if it is possible to somehow tell R to let LaTeX handle > the fonts for postscript plots produced by R? > > It is for a thesis and I have MANY figures.
