High resolution and SVG versions of the new R logo are finally available.
I converted the SVG to WKT (file here) which means we can use it like we would a shapefile in R. That includes plotting!
Here’s a short example of how to read that WKT and plot the logo using ggplot2:
library(sp) library(maptools) library(rgeos) library(ggplot2) library(ggthemes) r_wkt_gist_file "https://gist.githubusercontent.com/hrbrmstr/07d0ccf14c2ff109f55a/raw/db274a39b8f024468f8550d7aeaabb83c576f7ef/rlogo.wkt" if (!file.exists("rlogo.wkt")) download.file(r_wkt_gist_file, "rlogo.wkt") rlogo readWKT(paste0(readLines("rlogo.wkt", warn=FALSE))) rlogo_shp SpatialPolygonsDataFrame(rlogo, data.frame(poly=c("halo", "r"))) rlogo_poly fortify(rlogo_shp, region="poly") ggplot(rlogo_poly) + geom_polygon(aes(x=long, y=lat, group=id, fill=id)) + scale_fill_manual(values=c(halo="#b8babf", r="#1e63b5")) + coord_equal() + theme_map() + theme(legend.position="none") |
