R pch plotting in illustator as "q"


Every time I use pch=21 for plotting in R with lattice, my plot plots normally in the R plotting window and in pdf (circles with borders); however when I open a saved pdf version of my plot in Adobe Illustrator or Inkscape, the dots are oddly converted to "q"'s. Can anyone explain this? It's pretty frustrating, as I would like to edit my plot in either Illustrator or Inkscape.

Solution

  • I think you might want to use:

     useDingbats = FALSE 
    

    as in:

    pdf("myplot.pdf", useDingbats=FALSE)
    plot()
    dev.off()
