Keep in mind that this list is about R first and foremost. There is a
mailing list for Knitr, and also the maintainer of the knitr package
recommends asking questions on stackoverflow.com.

This is not a reproducible example. No matter where you ask this question
you need to supply a complete short script that exhibits the problem. That
also means including enough data IN THE SCRIPT to allow the script to
run. There are multiple guides online that describe how to do this in
detail.

None of this appears when I created my own reproducible R example:
#### begin code
library(grid)
library(gridExtra)
facetpoint1 <- pright1 <- pright2 <- pright3 <- pright4 <- pright5 <-
pright6 <- pright7 <- textGrob("X")
grid.arrange( facetpoint1, pright1, pright2, pright3, pright4, pright5
, pright6, pright7
, ncol=2
, layout_matrix = cbind( c( 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 )
, c( 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 ) )
, widths = c( 2, 1 )
)
#### end code
If the above example produces output for you in R or in a knitted PDF then
something is different about your setup than mine.

Does this happen at the R console? If it does, please post a reproducible
example, and the invocation and output of sessionInfo() (mine is below).
If it doesn't, there could be some interaction with knitr going on, and
using the echo=FALSE or warnings=FALSE chunk options could help, or you
may need more specialized help than we can offer here (e.g. via one of
the knitr support areas mentioned above).

When you don't set your email to plain text, the automatic conversion of
HTML to text is very likely to cause us to see something quite different
than you were looking at. It is in your best interest to figure out how to
set your email program to send plain text. Please read the Posting Guide:
