Hello: About three weeks ago, I received a message that a CRAN package I maintain (ggenealogy) had issues with "Unicode chars not available to pdf()".
As shown here <https://www.r-project.org/nosvn/R.check/r-devel-linux-x86_64-debian-clang/ggenealogy-00check.html>, it seems ERRORs occur when building the vignette, such as: 1) conversion failure on 'Lubomír Kubáček' in 'mbcsToSbcs': for č (U+010D) 2) conversion failure on 'Anders Ågren' in 'mbcsToSbcs': for Å (U+00C5) I have attempted to add lines such as: 1) pdf.options(encoding='ISOLatin2.enc') to the vignettes/ggenealogy.Rnw file 2) set_null_device("cairo") to the vignettes/ggenealogy.Rnw file (this gives me a "could not find function "set_null_device"" ERROR) I have been a bit stuck on how to resolve these new issues. A few days ago, I noticed my package was removed from CRAN before the stated deadline AoE (Anywhere on Earth), and so I decided to upload all changes I had made up until that point into a new ggenealogy_1.0.2.tar.gz file to the CRAN submission website. However, it seems the problem remain, and so I'm now reaching out to the list-serve to see if this may help me resolve the issues in a timely manner. Thank you for your patience and guidance.
