Testing output for AI

[achafetz]

Over the summer we noticed some issues when exporting out glitr graphics to Adobe Illustrator. Known issues have included

• each word coming in as its own vector object
• font not matching what is being passed in to glitr - Source Sans Pro (especially with facets)
• colors not exporting when using ggtext.

A few issues could be contributing

• updated R version (new graphics engine)
• updated RStudio version
• updated packages with update to R v4.0
• caption alignment off

We need to do some research into best practices on workflows when exporting graphics from R to some robust testing to AI, but also some robust testing to figure out where the issue is arising.

• [ ] base plot
• [ ] applying si_style to base plot
• [ ] facet base plot
• [ ] facet base plot with si_style
• [ ] base plot with use of glue for all labs
• [ ] si_style plot with use of glue for all labs
• [ ] base plot with element_markdown for all labs + facets
• [ ] si_style plot with element_markdown use of glue for all labs + facets
• [ ] base plot with glue + element_markdown for all labs + facets
• [ ] si_style plot with glue + element_markdown use of glue for all labs + facets
