Warning in RMarkdown #2

bhaskarvk · 2017-02-15T17:59:35Z

 In grid.Call(L_textBounds, as.graphicsAnnot(x$label),  ... :
  font family 'Arial Narrow' not found in PostScript font database

Same as hrbrmstr/hrbrmisc#3, but this time with correct family name of Arial Narrow instead of ArialNarrow.

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

OK with html_output I don't get the warning too. But If I change the output to flexdashboard::flex_dashboard, then I do get the warnings.

hrbrmstr · 2017-02-15T19:18:56Z

ah. lemme poke at that

bhaskarvk · 2017-02-15T19:22:13Z

It works if I use the work around mentioned in yihui/knitr#729 (comment).
So not an hrbrmstr issue then.
I'll let you poke at it a bit but feel free to close it.

Just used straight flexdasboard base layout. No hacks.

bhaskarvk · 2017-02-15T19:26:58Z

It works, but check your 'R Markdown' tab,
For me it shows


Output created: t2.html
There were 50 or more warnings (use warnings() to see the first 50)

hrbrmstr · 2017-02-15T19:28:16Z

oh. aye! same here. one sec. i have a theory

hrbrmstr · 2017-02-15T19:31:53Z

add extrafont::loadfonts() after library(tidyverse) so the PDF NULL graphics device can see the fonts.

No warnings now.

hrbrmstr · 2017-02-15T19:32:32Z

gosh i hate fonts in Linux, BSD and R and Python

bhaskarvk · 2017-02-15T19:35:43Z

Nope that didn't do it.
But adding the following does get rid of the warning.

knitr::opts_chunk$set(dev = 'svg')
options(device = function(file, width, height) {
  svg(tempfile(), width = width, height = height)
})

Ditto for png.

hrbrmstr · 2017-02-15T19:36:35Z

huh. wondering why it worked here? (no warnings here after i did that extrafont dance)

hrbrmstr · 2017-02-15T19:39:12Z

what abt library(svglite); knitr::opts_chunk$set(dev = 'svglite') and no knitr hack but include the extrafont thing?

bhaskarvk · 2017-02-15T19:54:50Z

Nope! What's more svglite doesn't render the font correctly (w/ or w/o knitr hack).

bhaskarvk · 2017-02-15T19:56:43Z

I'm fine relying on the knitr hack FWIW. But you'll probably need to document the workaround.

hrbrmstr · 2017-02-15T20:26:31Z

Wow. The inconsistencies between operating systems and even same OS but different devices is kind of disconcerting (my svglite versions work fine as do the other "hacks"). Def do need to doc this tho. Mebbe a GSOC to "fix font stuff in R" is in order (prbly a multi-GSOC effort).

RoyalTS · 2017-03-01T18:26:11Z

What's the fix for this if I want the output to be pdf_output?

hrbrmstr · 2017-03-01T18:37:51Z

Can you be more specific? You won't be generating PDF in Rmd (generally) so you mean using the fonts with PDF output in general?

Oh, sorry, I meant setting output: pdf_document instead of output: html_document in the Rmd document, which I do all the time.

hrbrmstr · 2017-03-01T18:41:32Z

Ah, roger that. you need to `extrafont::loadfonts(quiet=TRUE)` right near the top of the Rmd (it can be in an `include=FALSE` chunk) and the fonts shld make their way into the PDF(s)

Hmm, the following minimal reproducible example does not work for me:

---
title: "test"
output: pdf_document
---

```{r setup, include=FALSE}
library(dplyr)
library(ggplot2)
library(hrbrthemes)
extrafont::loadfonts(quiet=TRUE)
```

```{r}
iris %>%
  ggplot(aes(Sepal.Length, Sepal.Width)) + geom_point() + theme_ipsum()
```

It throws

Installed as in "it shows up in Font Book"? Yes.

Are you compiling using pdfLaTeX or XeLaTeX?

bhaskarvk · 2017-03-03T13:48:23Z

@RoyalTS For the warning part, I had to

options(device = function(file, width, height) {
  png(tempfile(), width = width, height = height)
})

As described in yihui/knitr#729 (comment)

I tried with a bunch of formats like png/svg/jpg etc. and did not get any warnings.

RoyalTS · 2017-03-03T17:08:55Z

Ah, there might be an uncontrolled difference here: What device are you outputting to?

I can get my test document to work if I set knitr::opts_chunk$set(dev = 'png'), but not if I set knitr::opts_chunk$set(dev = 'pdf') and @bhaskarvk's solution seems to be one that's geared towards png, right?

RoyalTS · 2017-03-03T17:51:20Z

Wait a second: I need not only Arial Narrow to be installed, I also need that to be the PostScript and not the TrueType version of the font?

hrbrmstr · 2017-03-03T19:47:23Z

Ah, fonts and R/Python.

You need TTF versions of the fonts for them to work across devices consistently in R.

Said fonts need to be installed at the system-level.

You also need to ensure you've added the fonts to R using the procedures described in extrafont.

This pkg tries to take care of the loading bit on startup now (recent dev update).

The hack @bhaskarvk mentioned is due to knitr using a null PDF device behind the scenes, a process that tosses warnings since the context it executes in doesn't have the fonts loaded.

^^^ is one big reason ggplot2 doesn't do anything fancy with fonts in the pkg or examples since anything outside the basic fonts isn't going to work without some pain.

RoyalTS · 2017-03-15T23:12:17Z

The extrafont setup, in particular running font_import() did the trick. Thanks a bunch!

tjmahr · 2017-04-12T19:28:17Z

I had the same error using these themes with LaTeX via RMarkdown on Windows. Doing a one-time font_import() like this comment suggests fixed it.

Other Windows people with pdf woes, try extrafont::font_import() first.

hrbrmstr · 2017-04-13T00:06:44Z

I now remember that this is one reason import_roboto_condensed() exists in-package.

Hey Bob, just wanted to let you know that the addition of the extrafont::loadfonts(quiet=TRUE) to .Rmd code chunks solved a problem I was having. Praise be to the search gods. Thanks!
