R pdf plot text overlap

I've read a ton of post and didn't find any good answer. I have overlapping text on labs. I'm trying:

pdf(file = "office.loaded6.pdf")
plot(seq,type="l",lwd=3,xlab="Time",ylab="Загруженность")
dev.off()

well, this is actual plot, but it's no different, I still can't have normal titles for axis.

text overlaps

I had the same problem. I use ISOLatin7 encoding. The graphics looks good when I open it in SumatraPDF, but looked as ugly as yours when I opened it in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.

I found the solution. It's not perfect but might serve your needs. You can write your ylab like this:

ylab = paste("З", "а", "г", "р", "у", "ж", "е", "н", "н", "о", "с", "т", ь")

It's a little annoying to write text like that, but still better move than save graphics as png.

P. s. this method won't work for overlaping graphics' titles and legends.

Edited: More efficient way, which I found recently is to use expression. This command works for everything: axis names, titles and legend. For naming y axis you simply need to write: 

 ylab = expression(Загруженность)
