Subject: negative numbers in R plots in Illustrator 8 (and higher?) (PR#2199)
Message-ID: <200210221615.SAA12074@pubhealth.ku.dk>

Negative numbers in (encapsulated) postscript generated by R loose their sign when opened in Adobe Illustrator 8 (french). This was so in 1.5.x and remains in 1.6.0.

I suppose that this is a known issue, although it is rather a flaw in Illustrator than in R, if my analysis of it is correct. I sent a lengthy mail containing a solution (ISOLatin1Encoding has to be redefined) to the r-help mailing list, where it never arrived.

Is there any interest in that I retype it and send it here?

RenE Bertin.
