Hi

You can write the following in "~/.Rprofile".

----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----
setHook(packageEvent("grDevices", "onLoad"),
	function(...){
        if(capabilities("aqua"))
            grDevices::quartzFonts(
              sans =grDevices::quartzFont(rep("AppleGothic",4)),
              serif=grDevices::quartzFont(rep("AppleMyungjp",4)))
        grDevices::pdf.options(family="Korea1")
        grDevices::ps.options(family="Korea1")
        }
)
attach(NULL, name = "KoreaEnv")
assign("familyset_hook",
       function() {
            macfontdevs=c("quartz","quartz_off_screen")
            devname=strsplit(names(dev.cur()),":")[[1L]][1]
            if (capabilities("aqua") &&
                devname %in% macfontdevs)
                    par(family="sans")
       },
       pos="KoreaEnv")
setHook("plot.new", get("familyset_hook", pos="KoreaEnv"))
setHook("persp", get("familyset_hook", pos="KoreaEnv"))
----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----

familyset_hook is a claptrap method.

There were no italics in Japanese, but there were two weight fonts.
I don't know good Korean font, choose a good font, please.
