Hi, I am using Extrafont package to install more fonts for my graphs. My primary graphic tool is ggplot2. I seem to have problem installing the package, but could not pinpoint where it is.
I try to follow the instruction here: https://github.com/wch/extrafont I guess (but am not sure) the fonts are successfully installed. Problem encountered: 1. The following line sometimes yields an error. Sometimes it works. > pdf("font_plot.pdf", family="Times New Roman", width=4, height=4) 2. The compiler could not find the fonts installed, e.g., Georgia, Impact, Times New Romans, Arial Black. Error message: "Font family not found in Windows font database....." 3. The plot could not show up at all. I use RStudio. I need to close RStudio and reopen it in order to see the plots produced by ggplot2 . Could someone provide an example of how Extrafont package is used? Thanks, Miao > rm(list=ls()) > library(ggplot2) > library(extrafont) > font_import() Importing fonts may take a few minutes, depending on the number of fonts and the speed of the system. Continue?
