Hello, All:
I'm unable to control font size in plots created by "svg" in R 3.6.0 on macOS Mojave 10.14.5. Consider the following:
svg('cex-svg.svg')
cex. <- 5
plot(1:2, cex.axis=cex.)
text(1:2, 1:2, c('as', 'DF'),
cex=cex.)
dev.off()
When I run this in R 3.5.2 under Windows 7, it works fine. In R 3.6.0 under macOS 10.14.5, I get tiny fonts. Changing "cex." has no impact on the result. A question about this to R-Devel generated replies from Peter Langfelder and David Winsemius, who noted that it worked fine under Ubuntu 18.04 (supposedly with R 3.15.2 -- probably R 3.5.2, but I'm not sure).
I experimented with the width, height, pointsize and family arguments for "svg", without solving this problem.
With R version 3.5.1 (2018-07-02) -- "Feather Spray" on OS X 10.11.6 I am unable to reproduce. My Mac hardware is considered well past (Apple) end of life despite its functionality, so I cannot upgrade my OS. I'm attaching the file that is the result so Spencer can view it, although I suspect it will be scrubbed by the mail-server.
