Saving .eps files with Times New Roman font
You may want to use the showtext package that converts fonts into
curves in your graph. Below is the sample code:
library(showtext)
## Load Times New Roman fonts on Windows
font.add("times", regular = "times.ttf", bold = "timesbd.ttf")
showtext.auto()
setEPS()
postscript("test.eps")
par(family = "times")
plot(rnorm(100), main = "Test Font")
dev.off()

In RGui, I'm running the following bit of code:
windowsFonts(A=windowsFont("Times New Roman"))
plot(0,0, ylab='y axis', xlab='x axis',main='title',family="A")
The labels and title appear in Times New Roman font. So far, so good. However, when I right click the figure and select 'Save as postscript...', I get a .eps file of the plot, but without the font formatting that I applied. Is there any way to apply the formatting so that it gets saved?
