Dear all,
I've sent this question to the r-help mailing list, but maybe it is
better suited for the r-sig-debian mailing list, although this is not
Debian (but still Linux):
I am using Cairo version 1.4-5 for plotting R graphs on a Gentoo system
that does not have X11 installed. I have full control on the fonts when
running R in interactive mode. But when running R in batch mode I cannot
change e.g. font size. Letters (including symbols) are, however, drawn.
I am exporting the following environemntal variables when running R in
batch mode to point to pkgconfig, which is used by Cairographics, and
which I installed in a non-standard local.
export PATH="$HOME/software/bin:$PATH"
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$HOME/software/lib/pkgconfig
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/software/lib
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH
Any help would be highly appreciated, Christian
