Failure to produce italics in jpeg
Dennis Fisher wrote:
Using R 2.10.1 in OS X (Snow Leopard), I created JPEG documents that were intended to include italicized text. In the JPEG versions, the italics appear in bold-face. The identical code (except for the call to the device) yields italics in PDF. A minimal example is: JPEG version:
jpeg(file="plot.jpeg", pointsize=12, bg="white", res=150, quality=100) plot(1,1) mtext(bquote(italic(P) < .(0.005))) dev.off()
Seems to be a Mac problem, works ok for me under Windows. You might report this as a bug, but a quick workaround would be to try CairoJPEG instead. Dieter
