pdf_table

Add a table to a pdf by generating R markdown, intended to be used within the expr argument to write_pdf. Thin wrapper around knitr::kable that generates latex output.

Usage

pdf_table(x, ...)

Arguments

x

data frame to export

...

Arguments passed on to knitr::kable

digits

Maximum number of digits for numeric columns, passed to round(). This can also be a vector of length ncol(x), to set the number of digits for individual columns.

row.names

Logical: whether to include row names. By default, row names are included if rownames(x) is neither NULL nor identical to 1:nrow(x).

col.names

A character vector of column names to be used in the table.

align

Column alignment: a character vector consisting of 'l' (left), 'c' (center) and/or 'r' (right). By default or if align = NULL, numeric columns are right-aligned, and other columns are left-aligned. If length(align) == 1L, the string will be expanded to a vector of individual letters, e.g. 'clc' becomes c('c', 'l', 'c'), unless the output format is LaTeX.

caption

The table caption. By default, it is retrieved from the chunk option tab.cap.

label

The table reference label. By default, the label is obtained from knitr::opts_current$get('label') (i.e., the current chunk label). To disable the label, use label = NA.

format.args

A list of arguments to be passed to format() to format table values, e.g. list(big.mark = ',').
