Hello! I am struggling for quite some time with proper printing of local characters in pdf plot, via Sweave snippets in Rnw file.When I am working directly within R, all is fine and I can get local character properly, like: pdf('figs/fig-relativeEntropy0.pdf', h=6, w=6, encoding='CP1250') matplot(par[, c(3)], type='b', ylim=c(0,0.5), xaxt='n', pch=c(21), lty=c('dashed'), lwd=c(3), xlab='', ylab='') axis(1, at=1:6, labels=as.character(par$suffix), cex.axis=1.2) legend(2, 0.48, 'pučina (open-sea)', bty='n', cex=1.2) dev.off() However, in Rnw file, I made an preamble line: \usepackage{Sweave} \usepackage[cp1250]{inputenc} >From this, I am getting dots. Also, I tried to play with the: pdf.options(encoding='CP1250') within the Sweave snippet. No luck at all! Please, is there a straightforward solution?!? I read two links, but no sign of correct how-to: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3434349/sweave-not-printing-localized-characters http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Problems-with-Sweave-and-pdf-options-encoding-quot-ISOLatin7-quot-PR-13234-td921653.html
This isn't really an answer to your question, but it might be a workaround: switch to the UTF-8 encoding. It is the default on many systems (e.g. most Unix-alikes these days), so it is probably better supported internally. You might need to convert your string to UTF8; you can do that by replacing
'pučina (open-sea)' with 'pu\u010dina (open-sea)' Duncan Murdoch ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
