I am using xtable to produce summary tables of linear models, specifying the output as latex. If I just run the code in R, I get the correct output. However, the latex output in the org document contains a lot of “|”s. I think this is because the header of the table contains some code to make “p > |t|”, where the vertical lines are to indicate “absolute value of t”. My guess is that when the output is written to the results section, org interprets the “|” signs as an org-table and tries to be helpful by adding more of them to make up the correct number of columns. If I switch off the latex output, and write the xtable to a small .tex file, using xtable.print and then include the file after the code block, the table appears correctly. I’m using emacs 25.2.
Here’s an example: Best wishes, Brian
