Colleagues,
Using R 2.10.1 in OS X (Snow Leopard), I created JPEG documents that
were intended to include italicized text. In the JPEG versions, the
italics appear in bold-face. The identical code (except for the call
to the device) yields italics in PDF. A minimal example is:
PDF version:
pdf("plot.pdf")
plot(1,1)
mtext(bquote(italic(P) < .(0.005)))
dev.off()
JPEG version:
jpeg(file="plot.jpeg", pointsize=12, bg="white", res=150, quality=100)
plot(1,1)
mtext(bquote(italic(P) < .(0.005)))
dev.off()
I can't find any info in the help pages for either jpeg or bquote that
explain this.
Any ideas?
