yes of course, and the answer is latex() in the Hmisc package. Why were you excluding it? Details follow
Rich The current release of the Hmisc package has this capability on Macintosh and Linux. For Windows, you need the next release 3.14-7 which is available now at github. ## windows needs these lines until the new Hmisc version is on CRAN install.packages("devtools") devtools::install_github("Hmisc", "harrelfe") ## All operating systems options(latexcmd='pdflatex') options(dviExtension='pdf') ## Macintosh options(xdvicmd='open') ## Windows, one of the following options(xdvicmd='c:\\progra~1\\Adobe\\Reader~1.0\\Reader\\AcroRd32.exe') ## 32-bit windows options(xdvicmd='c:\\progra~2\\Adobe\\Reader~1.0\\Reader\\AcroRd32.exe') ## 64 bit windows ## Linux ## I don't know the xdvicmd value ## this works on all R systems library(Hmisc) tmp <- matrix(1:9,3,3) tmp.dvi <- dvi(latex(tmp)) print.default(tmp.dvi) ## prints filepath of the pdf file tmp.dvi ## displays the pdf file on your screen On Mon, Dec 8, 2014 at 9:31 PM, Kate Ignatius <kate.ignat...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I have a simple question.
