Dear Ivan: Thank you for your help again.
Thanks for your suggestion to use cairo_pdf() instead of pdf() to allow for the multi-lingual plots. I incorporated your advice and added the the code you suggested: <<results=hide,echo=FALSE>>= my.Swd <- function(name, width, height, ...) grDevices::cairo_pdf( filename = paste(name, "pdf", sep = "."), width = width, height = height ) @ \SweaveOpts{grdevice=my.Swd,pdf=FALSE} as shown in lines 49-56 in my new vignette file here (https://github.com/lindsayrutter/ggenealogy/blob/master/vignettes/ggenealogy.Rnw). Upon attempting to build (R CMD build ggenealogy), I received the ERROR: Error: processing vignette 'ggenealogy.Rnw' failed with diagnostics: object 'my.Swd' not found --- failed re-building ‘ggenealogy.Rnw’ I tried replacing the code you suggested to various locations and separating the \SweaveOpts line to be located at separate locations. However, I received the same ERROR each time. Do you have any suggestions or ideas on how to resolve this error? I again thank you for your help with this issue.
