Hi, I'm using Sweave with xtable to generate Latex tables. My problem is that some of the tables are too wide, and I would like to use the tiny font for these tables, but not for the others nor for the text. I can't work out how to accomplish that.
The Latex code below does what I want it to, but I have to insert the "\tiny{" and the closing "}" by hand. It originated from these commands in my .Rnw-file: <<yearmale, results=tex>>= yearmale <- with(chol, table(year,male)) yearmale <- rowpct(yearmale) <<yearmale, results=tex>>= print(xtable(yearmale,caption="My caption")) $ LATEX CODE: \begin{table}[ht] \begin{center} \tiny{ \begin{tabular}{rlll} \hline & Kvinder & Mænd & Total \\ \hline 1998 & 1335 (75\%) & 437 (25\%) & 1772 (100\%) \\ 1999 & 1232 (74\%) & 425 (26\%) & 1657 (100\%) \\ 2000 & 1427 (74\%) & 502 (26\%) & 1929 (100\%) \\ 2001 & 1407 (74\%) & 493 (26\%) & 1900 (100\%) \\ 2002 & 1493 (71\%) & 611 (29\%) & 2104 (100\%) \\ 2003 & 1684 (75\%) & 566 (25\%) & 2250 (100\%) \\ 2004 & 1565 (73\%) & 567 (27\%) & 2132 (100\%) \\ 2005 & 1629 (74\%) & 586 (26\%) & 2215 (100\%) \\ 2006 & 1448 (72\%) & 553 (28\%) & 2001 (100\%) \\ 2007 & 1582 (73\%) & 590 (27\%) & 2172 (100\%) \\ Total & 14802 (74\%) & 5330 (26\%) & 20132 (100\%) \\ \hline \end{tabular} } \caption{My caption} \end{center} \end{table} Can anybody help me? Thank you in advance.
