Dear R Users,
I have three questions.
1) Is there a way to get the output tex file to include
\documentclass{report}
\begin{document}
and
\end{document}
so I can generate a PDF straight away. (I am trying to generate hundreds of
these and don't want to have to manually type this in every time I load a
tex file).
See the dvi and dvips function in Hmisc under the help file for latex.
You could use these functions as models to write a dvipdf function.
2) When I have have a table of greater than 9 columns, the columns to the
right tend to get cut off (see attached PDF "SNA cutoff"). Is it possible
to specify that if the number of columns >9, continue the table below (see
attached PDF "Desired result". Excuse my crude editing skills but you get
the idea).
use the longtable option and landscape mode
3) This is not so related to R but I thought someone may know the answer.
Is there a way to maintain the image quality when I copy these tables into a
word document? The file "Desired result" shows how copying from the
original pdf ("SNA cutoff") drastically reduces the quality (note the word
doc was re-converted to a PDF for posting).
It depends on how you copy. By all means use Insert ... Picture ...
from file and directly insert pdf. In OpenOffice you can directly
insert encapsulated postscript.
