Unfortunately, I fail to knit an *.Rmd file in RStudio to PDF that includes fontawesome-icons. However, when knitting to output: html_document in renders perfectly.
Info:
I am using R version 4.0.3 with RStudio 1.3.1056
I have installed the latest TeX Live distribution
The following example contains elements taken from RStudio's Github:
Icon renders in HTML:
---
title: "FontAwesome in R Markdown"
output: html_document
---
```{r load_packages, message=FALSE, warning=FALSE, include=FALSE}
library(fontawesome)
```
This is an R icon: `r fa("r-project", fill = "steelblue")`.
Icon is ignored for PDF output:
---
title: "FontAwesome in R Markdown"
output: pdf_document
---
```{r load_packages, message=FALSE, warning=FALSE, include=FALSE}
library(fontawesome)
```
This is an R icon: `r fa("r-project", fill = "steelblue")`.
Neither R nor Rmarkdown shows any errors when rendering to PDF. Does anyone have an idea why it does not work?
Thank you very much.
Cheers,
Christian
You can workaround the problem by using the fontawesome5 latex package:
---
title: "FontAwesome in R Markdown"
output:
pdf_document:
keep_tex: true
header-includes:
- \usepackage{fontawesome5}
---
This is an R icon: \faRProject

I have a RMarkdown document that I'm rendering as a word document using a template as reference.
This is the code:
---
output:
word_document:
pandoc_args: [
"--reference-doc=template_report.docx"
]
always_allow_html: no
---
#Report starts here
```{r setup, include=FALSE, warning=FALSE}
library(pander)
library(rmarkdown)
library(webshot)
#Some code
```
The issue is that the word document has the same metadata printed in the report which I don't want.
output:
word_document:
pandoc_args: [
“–reference-doc=template_exec_report.docx”
]
always_allow_html: yes
Report starts here
Is there a way to remove this?
Could this because of change in R-versions. We recently moved to RStudio cloud environment and there might be a change in R-version.
Edit: This is occurring this in R 4.0.5. It is working fine in R 3.5.0
After updating R to version 3.6.0, and re-installing the required packages, knitting Rmd documents now seems to ignore the knitr::include_url function.
The following is a minimal example, in a file named test.Rmd -
---
title: "test"
author: "Michael Dorman"
date: "May 1, 2019"
output: html_document
---
```{r setup, include=FALSE}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE)
```
## R Markdown
```{r}
knitr::include_url("https://www.wikipedia.org/")
```
```{r}
knitr::include_graphics("https://www.wikipedia.org/portal/wikipedia.org/assets/img/Wikipedia-logo-v2.png")
```
And here is a screenshot of the output, after pressing Knit in Rstudio -
The knitr::include_url function is ignored. No <iframe> element was produced. The knitr::include_graphics function still works, so the image does appear in the output.
Thanks for reading, I appreciate any help!
I'm having a lot of trouble getting basic references to work in R Markdown. To reduce complexity from my original project, I've decided to use the bookdown example code, but I'm experiencing the same problem. Here's a link to the intro exmample code: https://github.com/rstudio/bookdown-demo/blob/master/01-intro.Rmd
When I use Knitr to HTML or PDF the file is being generated fine but the references are not working, instead the file will just containt "#ref(example)". Here is an image to show better the output (my emphasis added in red):

Here is a minimal example:
---
title: "Minimal"
output:
pdf_document:
fig_caption: yes
---
```{r setup, include=FALSE}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE)
```
Here is a reference to the plot below \#ref(fig:minGraph)
```{r minGraph, echo=FALSE, fig.cap="\\label{fig:minGraph}test"}
plot(x=1)
```
With the output appearing as such:

If you want make use of the bookdown extensions in a normal rmarkdown document you can use bookdown::html_document2 and bookdown::pdf_document2 instead of rmarkdown::html_document and rmarkdown::pdf_document. Example:
---
title: "Minimal"
output:
bookdown::html_document2:
fig_caption: yes
bookdown::pdf_document2:
fig_caption: yes
---
```{r setup, include=FALSE}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE)
```
Here is a reference to the plot below \#ref(fig:minGraph)
```{r minGraph, echo=FALSE, fig.cap="test"}
plot(x=1)
```
Looks like I was getting my syntax confused by reading the bookdown guide while using just R markdown. Thanks to Ralf for pointing me in the this direction. The correct minimal code would be like so:
---
title: "Minimal"
output:
pdf_document:
fig_caption: yes
---
```{r setup, include=FALSE}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE)
```
Here is a reference to the plot below \ref{fig:minGraph}
```{r minGraph, echo=FALSE, fig.cap="\\label{fig:minGraph}test"}
plot(x=1)
```
I am trying to build a beamer presentation using rmarkdown. In my presentation I want to include tables using the kable, and kableExtra packages. I am having issues with this because one of the LaTex packages that kableExtra requires is already loaded by the beamer presentation with different options. This is the error message that I receive.
! LaTeX Error: Option clash for package xcolor.
I have been searching for a fix for this but have not had any luck. I have found solutions on the LaTex pages, here and here, but I do not know LaTex and I have not figured out how to apply these solutions in the rmarkdown arena. I have tried looking at the Latex templates in rmarkdown, but I do not understand it well enough to try and implement these solutions.
Any thoughts or solutions would be much appreciated. Here is just a quick sample of the .Rmd that gives the error.
---
title: "Untitled"
author: "Author"
date: "April 28, 2018"
output:
beamer_presentation:
keep_tex: true
header-includes:
- \usepackage[table]{xcolor}
---
```{r setup, include=FALSE}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = FALSE)
library(knitr)
library(kableExtra)
dt <- mtcars[1:5, 1:6]
```
## Slide with R Output
```{r cars, echo = TRUE}
kable(dt, format = "latex")
```
## Slide with Plot
```{r pressure}
plot(pressure)
```
The linked answer on the TeX stackexchange suggests adding table to the class options for the document e.g. \documentclass[a4paper,table]{article}. In order to do this in RMarkdown, you can use a classoption: line in your YAML header:
---
title: "Untitled"
author: "Author"
date: "April 28, 2018"
classoption: table
output:
beamer_presentation:
keep_tex: true

I am writing my first .rmd report using RMarkdown and then I knit it to pdf file. As I write it in my national language, I would like to have figures captions in my language too. The problem is that the default caption format is "Figure 1: My caption". I would like to change this generative "Figure 1:" part but I couldn't find how. Any help will be appreciated.
Try specifying the language in the YAML header of an rmarkdown document (documentation link):
---
title: "Crop Analysis Q3 2013"
output: pdf_document
fontsize: 11pt
geometry: margin=1in
lang: german
---
The language code will be processed by the babel LaTeX package (at least in the case of pdflatex).
I found out that it is possible to do using LaTeX:
---
title: "My raport"
output:
pdf_document:
fig_caption: yes
header-includes:
- \usepackage{caption}
---
\def\figurename{MyFigureName}
Still: is there any simpler way?
It should work like this:
---
output:
pdf_document:
fig_caption: true
---
```{r figWithCaption, echo=F, fig.cap="My Figure Caption"}
plot(cars) # your figure
```
