两年前,我发布了一篇相关文章:
Add font to R that is not in extrafonts library。随着对字体的工作原理有了更好的了解,我现在有了一组新的字体,我需要将它们上传到 R 中以与ggplot
. 尽管在上一篇文章中给出了有用的答案,但我遇到了一系列新问题:
首先,我无法加载showtext
库。重新安装并加载库后,我收到以下错误消息:
> library(showtext)
Loading required package: sysfonts
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘sysfonts’:
.onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'sysfonts', details:
call: dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...)
error: unable to load shared object '/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.5/Resources/library/sysfonts/libs/sysfonts.so':
dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.5/Resources/library/sysfonts/libs/sysfonts.so, 6): Library not loaded: /opt/X11/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib
Referenced from: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.5/Resources/library/sysfonts/libs/sysfonts.so
Reason: image not found
Error: package ‘sysfonts’ could not be loaded
...当我尝试加载sysfonts
库时,我收到以下信息:
> library(sysfonts)
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘sysfonts’:
.onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'sysfonts', details:
call: dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...)
error: unable to load shared object '/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.5/Resources/library/sysfonts/libs/sysfonts.so':
dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.5/Resources/library/sysfonts/libs/sysfonts.so, 6): Library not loaded: /opt/X11/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib
Referenced from: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.5/Resources/library/sysfonts/libs/sysfonts.so
Reason: image not found
我不知道如何解决这个unable to load shared object
错误,因此我基本上放弃了使用showtext
,因为我无法将它加载到 R 中。
然后,我运行以下命令,将extrafont
我的 Mac 中的字体导入 R:
> library(extrafont)
> font_import() # import all fonts on my system
Importing fonts may take a few minutes, depending on the number of fonts and the speed of the system.

我注意到某些字体由于No FontName
错误而被跳过,而其他字体(Arial Black)似乎可以正常加载。运行 font_import 后,我查看可用的字体:
> fonts()
[1] ".Keyboard" "System Font" ".SF NS Rounded" "Andale Mono"
[5] "Apple Braille" "AppleMyungjo" "Arial Black" "Arial"
[9] "Arial Narrow" "Arial Rounded MT Bold" "Arial Unicode MS" "Bodoni Ornaments"

[29] "Trebuchet MS" "Verdana" "Webdings" "Wingdings"
[33] "Wingdings 2" "Wingdings 3"
对于我的自定义字体,我获得了一个字体 zip 文件,我已将这些字体上传到我的 Mac*。字体名称是FreightDisp Pro
,我可以在这里看到该字体位于 Mac 的 Font Book 应用程序中。但是,我会注意到该字体在我的library/Fonts/
文件夹中不可用,如下图所示:
我已经测试过该字体在 Microsoft Word 中可用,而且确实如此。
最后,当我尝试将字体导入 R 时,我收到以下错误:
> font_import(pattern="FreightDisp Pro")
Importing fonts may take a few minutes, depending on the number of fonts and the speed of the system.

Extracting .afm files from .ttf files...
Error in data.frame(fontfile = ttfiles, FontName = "", stringsAsFactors = FALSE) :

将模式更改为“National2”时,我也会收到同样的错误。
所以当我结束这篇文章时,似乎我也已经找到了我的问题的答案,即字体不能简单地安装在 fontbook 中,还必须在 /Library/Fonts 文件夹中。我不确定是否可以简单地将字体拖放到此文件夹中,或者是否可以使用字体书将这些字体写入正确的位置。我也不确定文件类型,如果我只能.ttf
按照帖子的建议使用文件,即使我拥有的字体文件都是.otf
.
编辑
在 ggplot2 中使用自定义 OTF 字体这篇文章表明.otf
需要将字体转换为与额外字体.ttf
一起使用,但可以使用showtext
,.otf
字体。所以我会尝试加载那个库。
