Hello,
I'm running R64.app on Mac OS X.7.3.
I have an issue :

a = c(1,2,3)
plot(a)

produces a plot on a quartz window but without any text (labels, etc.)

Sounds like corrupted font files. The quartzFonts are different than the pdfFonts. This is based on experience with earlier version of MacOS. In my (earlier) system the fix has been to find the Helvetica fonts in Fontbook.app and remove the corrupted (often duplicated) ones which you can identify as being the ones that display as blanks.

a = c(1,2,3)
pdf("/Users/myhome/Desktop/
test.pdf")
plot(a)
dev.off()

produces the expected pdf file with axis labels, x values and y values.

Here's some info on my system :

sessionInfo()
R version 2.14.1 (2011-12-22)
Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin9.8.0/x86_64 (64-bit)

locale:
[1] fr_FR.UTF-8/fr_FR.UTF-8/fr_FR.UTF-8/C/fr_FR.UTF-8/fr_FR.UTF-8

attached base packages:
[1] stats     graphics  grDevices utils     datasets  methods   base

quartzFonts()
$serif
[1] "Times-Roman"      "Times-Bold"       "Times-Italic"
[4] "Times-BoldItalic"

$sans
[1] "Helvetica"             "Helvetica-Bold"
[3] "Helvetica-Oblique"     "Helvetica-BoldOblique"

$mono
[1] "Courier"             "Courier-Bold"        "Courier-Oblique"
[4] "Courier-BoldOblique"


Do you have any idea on what could cause this issue ?
Thanks,
Manuel
