Subject: [Rd] Linux: /usr/shar/doc/R-2.0.1/*.pdf all have bad fonts (PR#7675)
Message-ID: <20050209014432.7FAA2E407@slim.kubism.ku.dk>

Version: 2.0.1
OS: Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS release 3 (Taroon Update 4)
Submission from: (NULL) (129.105.110.38)


All of the pdf files in /usr/share/doc/R-2.0.1 from the CRAN RedHat RPM have
invalid fonts. A build from source yields the same problem.

[root@wanda R-2.0.1]# ll *.pdf

-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       268142 Nov 19 10:50 R-lang.pdf

The files are unreadable with xpdf and acroread, and pdf2ps shows this:
