Can not save svg file in mac (Solved)

When I run ggsave(), I received this error:

Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) : unable to load shared object '/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.5/Resources/library/gdtools/libs/gdtools.so': dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.5/Resources/library/gdtools/libs/gdtools.so, 6): Library not loaded: /opt/X11/lib/libcairo.2.dylib Referenced from: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.5/Resources/library/gdtools/libs/gdtools.so Reason: image not found

After googling it, this is because the maxos lacks of some certain font system in Windows. Here is what I did to fix it.

• 1. install homebrew;
• 2. brew install cairo in Terminal
• 3. install.packages(gdtools)
