Error loading fonts with `font_import()`

Hm... what kind of system are you using this on? It may be related to #13, which is fixed in the latest development version.

You can install it with:

library(devtools)
install_github("extrafont", "wch")

I just released the new version (0.12) to CRAN, so once it's accepted, you won't need to install from github to make it work (if that was indeed the problem).

Hi Winston,

Sorry for the delayed response. This was on Arch Linux 64bit running R 2.15.1. The new version (0.12) let me font_import() successfully, so I'll give it a whirl. Nice package and I'm excited to try this. It seems a bit involved, but still might be an improvement from my previous method:

R -> ggplot -> tikzDevice -> edit .tex file for desired font -> pdfLatex.

Thanks for making this!

P.S. By the way, this is John Henderson from the TCRUG meetups :)
