is there perhaps a way to insert an image url into a rmarkdown template latex file that produces a pdf?
I am using Rstudio, and I am trying to edit the default latex file which it calls, to add a url figure into the title.
Ideally I want the figure to be called from the url, and not created in the folder, as e.g. discussed here.
Any ideas how this could be achieved?

When I would create a html document in RMarkdown, the file transfer/email process was straightforward; I would simply transfer/email the resulting html file.
However, when I try to do the same with a Quarto document, I do not get all of the functionality in the transferred file. For example, my Quarto document includes tabs using the ::: {.panel-tabset} option. When I open the transferred html document, the panel-tabsets are not displayed properly.
I believe that this is because Quarto also produces files in a separate directory. However, I trying to programmatically email the html document out to a distribution, and sendmailR is not letting me attach this directory.
Furthermore, my distribution list are NOT technical folks. I am not looking to have to tell them to save these files and then open the html; I was hoping to just attach the html file like I did with RMarkdown and have them natively open it just like an regular attachment.
What is the best way to transfer/email Quarto produced html documents?
Someone directed me to use the html: self-contained in the YAML header.
Based on that, I found this post which states what to do.
By putting the following in my YAML header, the resultant html file is self-contained:
---
format:
html:
self-contained: true

I'm developing a Simple R Markdown Website, and want to include a few links to other .Rmd generated HTML pages on the home page.
Simply, I want to open up "detailed-desc.html" which is rendered from "detailed-desc.Rmd", on clicking a text element on the "index.Rmd" file. I'm not sure how this can be done.
If all your .Rmd files and their rendered HTML results are in the same directory, then you can use the regular markdown syntax and reference the HTML files for links.
[Detailed Description](detailed-desc.html)

With a more complicated site folder structure, it is just
[Detailed Description](./path/to/your/folder/detailed-desc.html)

When I use the blogdown and hugo academic create a website, one example post created by rmd file (2015-07-23-r-rmarkdown) has chunk code, but the plot of this chunk code did not show in the post see here. I can see the chunk code created figures in the figure_html folder though
besides, when insert image from addin in rstudio, it automatically provides a path: static/blog/2020-11-09-creating-a-website/index_files/1.JPG, however the image does not show in the post. When I use a path static/blog/2020-11-09-creating-a-website/1.JPG, it works. What could be wrong with the index_files folder?
I am attempting to render a powerpoint presentation from rmarkdown.
I downloaded this powerpoint template and associated files from sol-eng and am able to generate the powerpoint as is.
However, if I open the template and do
view -> slide master
and adjust any of the slide master (i.e. change the background color)
close slide master -> save
I get the error "The file may be damaged or it may have been created in a pre-release version of PowerPoint." when I attempt to render the powerpoint.
I am unclear why using the template as is vs changing the background would generate an error in making the powerpoint presentation.
Any suggestions would be helpful:)
it might be that R writes binary differently than Powerpoint. Is it possible to create a ioslide or beamer slide file with the original powerpoint file instead? If you do IOSlides or beamer, the view with only need a web browser and could be a more flexible file for presentation
I used a different computer/version of powerpoint; adjusted the master slide and now it works - still unsure why I couldn't adjust with my version of powerpoint so I am guessing some versioning issue.
I am trying to make a "accessible" or 508 compliant PDF using R markdown. To do this I need to have pdf tags attached to figure that provide alternative text. I also need to be able to add tags to section headers etc.
The idea is if you open the pdf in a pdf viewer that then the tags are read in in the "table of context" and allow a user to move between sections.
If you use a markdown header like
# header
R markdown seems to add a label to this so it appear in the table of context. I would like to be able to add these kind of labels manually as well.
Does anyone have any ideas of how to do this?
You should be able to achieve this using pandoc formatting (see http://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html), for example the alt text for an image can be specified as
