Greek symbols not generated on quartz device (PR#6708)
Symbols fonts has changed encoding from 10.2 to 10.3 and this brokes things when using RAqua on different systems. The new R 1.9.0 fixes this. Still not able to get styled text (bold, italcs) at the moment. stefano

Full_Name: Mark St. John Version: 1.8.1 OS: Macintosh 10.3.3 Submission from: (NULL) (63.135.5.86) After upgrading from Mac OS 10.2.8 to 10.3.3 a program I wrote to generate plots will no longer display annotated Greek symbols. I'm using parse() and expression() to convert variable text in to symbols and it would appear that both functions work reasonably well except that Greek characters are missing. I have a second computer still running OS 10.2.8 and have confirmed that the same R program generates figures with annotated Greek symbols properly. I've only tried this on the quartz device, I've not installed a good postscript viewer yet. Perhaps related: on neither OS 10.2.8 nor 10.3.3 have I been able to get "italic" text to display properly--it always appears as regular text despite trying several different font families.
