It was pointed out to me that scatter plots made on our rhel5 system (sessionInfo() below, have the curious feature that when made with pdf() and viewed with evince show the points as "q" not "o". Is this a known problem with evince? It is pretty clearly not a problem with R, since if I bring the pdf file back to my mac and open in acrobat it looks normal. So this is a just-in-case- someone-else-runs-into-this kind of post.
