I got the following graphs using the code given below:
library(ggplot2)
library(ggthemes)
p <- ggplot(data = mtcars, mapping = aes(x = wt, y = mpg)) +
geom_point() +
theme_igray()
p
p + geom_text(mapping = aes(label = rownames(mtcars)))
p + geom_text(mapping = aes(label = rownames(mtcars)), family = "Times New Roman")
The font for the geom_text
is different from the font of rest of graph. I wonder how can I get same font for geom_text
as the font of rest of graph.
Edited

Does this work for you? I looked at the theme parameters by running theme_igray %>% View()
, and I see that the baseline text
size and color is 12 pt black, but axis.text
is grey30
and has a relative size of 0.8, i.e. 9.6 pt. The slightly lighter-than-black color creates a similar appearance as using a lighter font weight, compared to the font at full black.
For mysterious reasons, as noted here, the text sizes in geom_text
are scaled at a ratio of close to 0.353 [EDIT, see comment from @zeehio; it's 25.4/72] compared to theme sizes. With the color and size, these should match.
library(ggplot2)
library(ggthemes)
p <- ggplot(data = mtcars, mapping = aes(x = wt, y = mpg)) +
geom_point() +
theme_igray()
p
p + geom_text(mapping = aes(label = rownames(mtcars)),
color = "gray30", size = 12 * 5/14 * 0.8)
Here's another example. On my system (OSX 10.13, R 3.5.1) these match, which I confirmed by using the "difference" filter in GIMP, showing that they line up.
base_size = 36
ggplot(data = mtcars, mapping = aes(x = wt, y = mpg)) +
annotate("text", x = 1, y = 5*3:6, label = 5*3:6,
color = "gray30", size = 12 * 0.353 * 0.8) +
annotate("text", x = 10, y = 5*3:6, label = 5*3:6,
color = "gray30", size = 12 * 0.353 * 0.8) +
theme_igray() +
theme(panel.grid = element_blank())
