Hi
Does this do what you want?
postscript(example.ps, fonts=c(sans, mono))
plot(1:10, axes=FALSE, ann=FALSE)
par(family=sans) # By default Helvetica which is like Arial
title(xlab=sans serif axis label)
title(ylab=bold sans serif axis label, font.lab=2)
par(family=mono) # By default Courier
axis(1,
at=seq(2, 8, 2),
label=c(mono, space, tick, labels))
axis(2,
at=seq(2, 10, 2),
label=c(bold, mono, space, tick, labels),
font.axis=2)
box()
dev.off()

the problem is how to use both courier bold font for axis and arial
bold font for labelling. If I use familiy = courier in postscript,
everything will become courier fonts ..
I noticed that in postscirpt help page, we can customize a family such as
family = c(CM_regular_10.afm,CM_boldx_10.afm, cmti10.afm,
cmbxti10.afm, CM_symbol_10.afm;
However, I tried many times, and just don't know the symbol used in R for
courier bold or arial bold, etc.
Hi,
I am trying to use Arial bold for labelling (font.lab =2), and use
the fixed-width Courier bold for axis. I will export the plot to .ps
format. I have been trying to use font.axis = 11, but that doesn't work
when I exported the plot to a .ps file.
I have been trying hard to read the help page of postscript these few
days, but didn't get the courier font yet. Can you please help me
figure out how I should use postscript? Thanks!
Best
Sean
