I have a document that contains a lot of LaTeX tables. I am trying to convert it to DocX so that I can share it with others. When I convert the document to DocX, the tables are missing. Has anyone been successful in being able to do this?
Here is an example to reproduce my issue.
---
title: "R Notebook"
output:
word_document: default
html_notebook: default
header-includes:
- usepackage{longtable}
---
This is an [R Markdown](http://rmarkdown.rstudio.com) Notebook. When you execute code within the notebook, the results appear beneath the code.
Try executing this chunk by clicking the *Run* button within the chunk or by placing your cursor inside it and pressing *Cmd+Shift+Enter*.
```{r}
plot(cars)
```
Add a new chunk by clicking the *Insert Chunk* button on the toolbar or by pressing *Cmd+Option+I*.
When you save the notebook, an HTML file containing the code and output will be saved alongside it (click the *Preview* button or press *Cmd+Shift+K* to preview the HTML file).
The preview shows you a rendered HTML copy of the contents of the editor. Consequently, unlike *Knit*, *Preview* does not run any R code chunks. Instead, the output of the chunk when it was last run in the editor is displayed.
The table.Rmd document contains the following:
---
title: "R Notebook"
header-includes:
- usepackage{longtable}
---
\begin{longtable}{ p{12cm} r }
Statement & XXX \\
\hline
line 1 & 100\% \\
line 2 & 100\% \\
line 3 & 88\% \\
\end{longtable}
I am not a Latex user. But I think you may have a very small, but important syntax error in your YAML header, you have:
---
title: "R Notebook"
header-includes:
- usepackage{longtable}
---
But the Rmarkdown Cookbook shows latex header-includes: as having TWO spaces indentation, which I think is important in terms of YAML, not sure if that is the root cause of your latex tables not rendering, but something I noticed.
---
title: Adding a Logo to LaTeX Title
header-includes:
- \usepackage{titling}
---
However, I may be able to offer an alternative solution. Rmarkdown plays very nicely with Tables and HTML and allows for dynamic output. using the YAML option always_allow_html: true allows for a nice HTML type table rendered inside your Word document that looks very professional and aesthetically appealing, with only 3 lines of code. Hopefully it wouldn't be too much work to convert your Latex tables to. Although this may not be an exact answer for you, it is another way to generate tables in Rmarkdown into Word .Docx files.

I want to use the LaTeX \ovalbox{} command from the fancybox package in an Rmarkdown beamer_presentation, knitted from within RStudio. However, as soon as I add a simple R chunk, I get an "! LaTeX Error: Something's wrong--perhaps a missing \item."
This is a minimum reproducible example:
---
output:
beamer_presentation
header-includes: |
\usepackage{fancybox}
---
## Slide 1
\ovalbox{an oval box}
```{r}
print("x")
```
I can hand-solve the problem afterwards in the .tex file by moving the \usepackage{fancybox} command before the \usepackage{fancyvrb} command which is automatically inserted during the knitting.
Any suggestions how to avoid this problem in the first place?
Seems the packages are fighting over how to mess with verbatim environments.
Normally one could simply load them in a different order, but of course rmarkdown makes such a simple task a lot more complicate. You can make your document compile using this hack (don't try to use any of the verbatim commands from fancybox, this might explode...):
---
output:
beamer_presentation
header-includes: |
\let\VerbatimEnvironmentsave\VerbatimEnvironment
\usepackage{fancybox}
\let\VerbatimEnvironment\VerbatimEnvironmentsave
---
## Slide 1
\ovalbox{an oval box}
```{r}
print("x")
```
I am trying to include my company logo in an R markdown report. The output has to be pdf. The logo has to be used as a template on every page of the report in the top left of the file. Just for example, you can use this google logo https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google#/media/File:Google_2015_logo.svg
I want the report to look like this (sorry for the blurry image but I just wanted to give an example) -
The google logo on top left should be present on every page.
I have done searches but all the searches that I have done are showing how to do this using latex or HTML output.
https://bookdown.org/yihui/rmarkdown-cookbook/latex-logo.html
Insert a logo in upper right corner of R markdown pdf document
2 Logo in R Markdown on PDF
add image in title page of rmarkdown pdf
The closest I have came is with this markdown document that is called reports.Rmd which looks like -
---
title: "Report"
output: pdf_document
params:
study: NA
mid : NA
---
```{r, echo=FALSE}
paste0("Study : ", params$study)
paste0("ID", params$mid)
```
and I run this from another R script as -
library(rmarkdown)
study <- 'ABC'
mid <- '73023'
rmarkdown::render('reports.Rmd', pdf_document(), params = list(
study = study, mid = mid
))
This runs and produce this output
I'll be able to resize the image with How to set size for local image using knitr for markdown? but I don't know how to place this on top left of the page. Thank you for reading.
This is a template for you:
---
title: 'You are really need to use LaTeX'
author: "You"
date: "`r Sys.Date()`"
output:
pdf_document
header-includes:
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\usepackage{graphicx}
---
```{r setup, include=FALSE}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE)
```
\addtolength{\headheight}{3.0cm}
\fancypagestyle{plain}{}
\pagestyle{fancy}
\fancyhead[R]{\includegraphics[width = 100pt]{your_pic.png}}
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt}

and blah-blah...
So, don't forget to install LaTeX and packages fancyhdr, graphics.
How to do it, you can see there.
Or you can install MikTeX etc. You can find a lot of info at the SO/in the web.
The knowledge of LaTeX will save you not once a time in the future life ;)
I need to update the color and font of the header (only header) in a R Markdown PDF file. I have found recourses on how to do this for the whole document, but can't find an answer for changing the headers only.
Thank you kindly!

title: "Untitled"
output: pdf_document

Simplified version of the solution provided by Grada Gukovic:
You can add simple LaTeX statements to your document via the YAML header header-includes, e.g.:
---
title: "Untitled"
output: pdf_document
header-includes:
- \usepackage{sectsty}
- \allsectionsfont{\color{cyan}}
---
```{r setup, include=FALSE}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE)
```

Result:
This is most useful for small additions like the one seen here. If you want to add more than a few lines of LaTeX code it is often easier to save them to an external file, say preamble.tex and include that via
---
output:
pdf_document:
includes:
in_header: preamble.tex
---
Other possible places are before_body and after_body, c.f. ?rmarkdown::includes.
There is no option to do this in rmarkdown::pdf_document. You can do this by modifying the .tex template being used using the sectsty package for latex.
For example the following changes the color of all headers to cyan:
Download the default latex template from here:
tex template
Open the template in Notepad and add the following lines on an appropriate place in the document preamble(I have them as lines nr. 200 and 201):
\usepackage{sectsty}
\allsectionsfont{\color{cyan}}
Save the modified file with the extension .tex (my file is called "Cyansections.tex") and put it in R's working directory.
Modify the header of the .rmd document:
---
title: "Untitled"
output:
pdf_document:
template: Cyansections.tex
---
If you want a different color or font consult this answer
and sectsty's manual Especially section 4 of the manual for chanhing fonts
I am attempting to create an rmarkdown document. I have finally figured out a way to approach this, although it has taken quite some time. The last thing I would like to be able to do is to add an image to the title page of my pdf document.
The trouble I have is that my title page is defined by the top section of YAML. Below is the contents of my example.Rmd file. I use the Knit PDF button in RStudio to turn it into a PDF.
---
title: "This is a my document"
author: "Prepared by: Dan Wilson"
date: '`r paste("Date:",Sys.Date())`'
mainfont: Roboto Light
fontsize: 12pt
documentclass: report
output:
pdf_document:
latex_engine: xelatex
highlight: tango

When you click the **Knit** button a document will be generated that includes both content as well as the output of any embedded R code chunks within the document. You can embed an R code chunk like this:
```{r}
summary(cars)
```
You can also embed plots, for example:
```{r, echo=FALSE}
plot(cars)
```
Note that the `echo = FALSE` parameter was added to the code chunk to prevent printing of the R code that generated the plot.
If anyone has some tips that would allow me to put an image (logo.png) above my title that would be great.
Based on the previous solution, the following code does not require an auxiliary header.tex file. All contents are contained in the .Rmd file. The LaTeX commands are instead defined in a header-includes block in the YAML header. More info can be found here.
Replace my_graphic.png below with your local graphic file.

title: "A title page image should be above me"
header-includes:
- \usepackage{titling}
- \pretitle{\begin{center}\LARGE\includegraphics[width=12cm]{my_graphic.png}\\[\bigskipamount]}
- \posttitle{\end{center}}
output:
pdf_document:
toc: true
---
\newpage
# Section 1
Some text.
I was able to solve this using LaTeX package titling

title: "Untitled"
author: "Name"
date: "September 19, 2015"
output:
pdf_document:
includes:
in_header: header.tex

Where the header.tex should include the following code:
\usepackage{titling}
\pretitle{%
\begin{center}
\LARGE
\includegraphics[width=4cm,height=6cm]{logo.png}\\[\bigskipamount]
}
\posttitle{\end{center}}
and replace logo.png with the image you would like to use and make sure the file is in the root directory of your Rmd file. You can change image width and height to your needs. For more information on available options go to titling
For a beamer presentation you can do it like this:
title: "Title"
subtitle: "Subtitle"
author: "author"
date: "date"
header-includes:
- \titlegraphic{\centering \includegraphics[width=12cm]{titlepic.png}}
output:
beamer_presentation:
latex_engine: xelatex
theme: "metropolis"
highlight: "espresso"
classoption: "aspectratio=169"
The titlegraphic will be placed below your title text
For beamer presentation if you want an image at the bottom you can kind of cheat and add the image where the date line should be. Then if you want to insert date you can add institution (which is before date). the ![] should be tabbed (4 spaces from the far left of the page)
date: |
{width=3in}
I am using RStudio for writing markdown documents and want to add Table of Contents (TOC) at top of the documents so that the user could click the relevant section for reading. There were some relevant examples on rpubs but now I can't seem to find them. Please note that I don't use pandoc and am quite new to Rmd & knitr. Is there any way to add TOCs without using pandoc? If using pandoc is must then which functions are relevant?
EDIT
Here's a small sample page:
---
title: "Sample Document"
output:
html_document:
toc: true
theme: united
---
Header 1
---------------
This is an R Markdown document. Markdown is a simple formatting syntax for authoring HTML, PDF, and MS Word documents. For more details on using R Markdown see <http://rmarkdown.rstudio.com>.
## Header 2
When you click the **Knit** button a document will be generated that includes both content as well as the output of any embedded R code chunks within the document. You can embed an R code chunk like this:
```{r}
summary(cars)
```
You can also embed plots, for example:
```{r, echo=FALSE}
plot(cars)
```
### Header 3
Note that the `echo = FALSE` parameter was added to the code chunk to prevent printing of the R code that generated the plot.
I tried running this in RStudio v 0.98.864 and it worked! but sadly it didn't work on 0.98.501 and 0.98.507. I am working on my thesis in 0.98.501 and after updating RStudio, some of my analyses didn't work. So, I reverted back to 0.98.501.
What should I do now? I really want TOCs but without harming the outputs of other analyses.
The syntax is
---
title: "Sample Document"
output:
html_document:
toc: true
theme: united
---
in the documentation. Make sure this is at the beginning of your document. Also make sure your document actually has headers otherwise R can't tell what you want in the table of contents.
Syntax with more options:
---
title: "Planets"
author: "Manoj Kumar"
date: "`r format(Sys.time(), '%B %d, %Y')`"
output:
html_document:
toc: true # table of content true
toc_depth: 3 # upto three depths of headings (specified by #, ## and ###)
number_sections: true ## if you want number sections at each table header
theme: united # many options for theme, this one is my favorite.
highlight: tango # specifies the syntax highlighting style
css: my.css # you can add your custom css, should be in same folder
---
If you are using pdf_document, you might want to add table of contents in a new page, which toc: true does not allow. It puts the table of contents right after the document title, author and date--because it is in yaml.
If you want to have it in a new page, you have to use some latex language. Here is what I did.
---
title: \vspace{3.5in}"Title"
author: "Name"
date: "`r Sys.Date()`"
output:
pdf_document:
fig_caption: true
number_sections: true
---
\newpage # adds new page after title
\tableofcontents # adds table of contents
\listoffigures
\listoftables
\newpage
So, after yaml (the chunk between ---), I added a new page using \newpage, then a table of contents using \tableofcontents, a list of figures using \listoffigures, a list of tables \listoftables, and a new page before everything else.
Note, \vspace{3in} in the title adds vertical space of 3 inch from the top before printing yaml (title, etc.).
