Two things:
First, to Lily: "‰" is the "per mil" symbol, not percent; it's not an
ASCII symbol, which is why there are issues displaying it. If you
really mean percent, use "%" and you likely won't have problems.
And to confirm what Bert said: this does work in R even if you use
dev.copy() to copy from the regular R graphics device to pdf, but not
from the RStudioGD to pdf. So this really is an RStudio bug.
