Importing fonts may take a few minutes, depending on the number of fonts and the speed of the system. > font_import() # import all fonts on my system Moving onto extrafont then, I run the following, to import fonts from my Mac into R: > library(extrafont) I am not sure how to fix this unable to load shared object error, and as a result I've mostly given up on using showtext, as I cannot get it loaded into R. and when I try to load the sysfonts library, I receive the following: > library(sysfonts) Referenced from: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.5/Resources/library/sysfonts/libs/sysfonts.soĮrror: package ‘sysfonts’ could not be loaded )Įrror: unable to load shared object '/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.5/Resources/library/sysfonts/libs/sysfonts.so':ĭlopen(/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.5/Resources/library/sysfonts/libs/sysfonts.so, 6): Library not loaded: /opt/X11/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib

onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'sysfonts', details:Ĭall: dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath.
