Hi Ben,

Are you sure this problem concerns babel/R? What happens when you export
an Org document to pdf without any babel stuff?

Can you provide an example Org file that you are having trouble
exporting to pdf? The problem is probably in your local configuration,
so if no-one can jump to the solution then start from a minimal working
config and try to find the part of your .emacs which is causing the
problem.
