[R-pkg-devel] checking PDF version of manual

[Brian G. Peterson]

The error says:
" Font ec-inconsolata at 540 not found"

So it looks like you need to install extra fonts.  I'm on linux, and 
haven't tried to do that on Windows in years, so I think that's about 
all I can do to help you out.

Regards,

Brian
