[R] CM Fonts in PDF output

[Markus Jochmann]

Hi!

On Linux I try to produce pdf graphs with computer modern fonts so that they
look nice in LaTeX documents. I run for example:

------
CM <- Type1Font( "CM",
c("/usr/share/texmf-texlive/fonts/afm/public/cm-lgc/fcmr8a.afm",
"/usr/share/texmf-texlive/fonts/afm/public/cm-lgc/fcmb8a.afm",
"/usr/share/texmf-texlive/fonts/afm/public/cm-lgc/fcmri8a.afm",
"/usr/share/texmf-texlive/fonts/afm/public/cm-lgc/fcmbi8a.afm",
"./cmsyase.afm" ) ) 
pdfFonts(CM=CM)
pdf( "test.pdf", width = 5, height = 4, family = "CM"  )
plot(c(-1,0,1))
dev.off()
-----

which works fine except that R has problems with the minus sign for the
labels and axis and I get the following warnings:

---
... font width unknown for character 0x2d ...
---
The minus signs are directly printed on the numbers, not in front of them.

Does anybody know what I am doing wrong?

Thanks already now,
Markus.
