[R-pkg-devel] CRAN Vignette pdfs garbled in Firefox pdf viewer
This is apparently due to compression as needed fort package building, e.g., R CMD build --compact-vignettes=both --md5 --resave-data --log gap so mine has the same problem: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/gap/vignettes/jss.pdf

Hi all, my package gcplyr has several vignettes which, from CRAN, appear garbled when opened with Firefox's pdf viewer ( https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/gcplyr/index.html). Specifically, instead of regular characters, there are numerous black-outlined white boxes with text inside like "EO 88" or "EO 55". This doesn't occur with the pdf vignettes on Github (https://github.com/mikeblazanin/gcplyr/). This also doesn't occur when CRAN pdfs are opened with Chrome's pdf viewer or opened with a local pdf viewer. The issue was documented here: https://github.com/mikeblazanin/gcplyr/issues/112 Anyone have any suggestions for what could be causing this? Thanks!
