showtext
is a neat solution to use various types of fonts in R graphs and make it
easy to use funny fonts. With
showtext,
we can draw phylogenetic tree with different types of fonts even with
symbolic/icon fonts.
require(showtext)
font.add.google("Gochi Hand", "gochi")
font.add.google("Rock Salt", "rock")
link = "http://img.dafont.com/dl/?f=wm_people_1";
download.file(link, "wmpeople1.zip", mode = "wb");
unzip("wmpeople1.zip");
font.add("wmpeople1", "wmpeople1.TTF");
link = "http://img.dafont.com/dl/?f=emoticons";
download.file(link, "emoticons.zip", mode = "wb");
unzip("emoticons.zip");
font.add("emoticons", "emoticons.ttf");
