The problem has been around for a while for me and thank you for raising it -- esp. with a fix!

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!
