'ragg graphics device not rendering latex symbols
I'm having difficulty getting braces and a few other math symbols to render when I use the ragg graphics device. I'd like to use ragg to save my figures but want the braces rendered correctly. Is this a bug or am I missing an argument that would result in this getting rendered properly?
Minimal example below:
library(ragg)
library(latex2exp)
x <- TeX(r"($\left{\left(\left[\left|BRACES!\right|\right]\right)\right}$)")
agg_png("plot_ragg.png")
plot(x)
dev.off()
Using the png device works fine but I'd prefer to use ragg for a variety of reason (in particular ggplot defaults to it, and the quality is generally better.
png("plot_png.png")
plot(x)
dev.off()
