grid.table() works well, but using it in sweave creates graphics with
very wide margins. I'm sure this has something to do with grid, and not
just grid.table. Any idea how I can clip the graphic to the edges of
the table graphic? I've looked into viewports, etc, but I can't seem to
find
You may take a look at knitr's graphics manual which tells you how you
can automatically crop the white margins:
https://github.com/downloads/yihui/knitr/knitr-graphics.pdf (Cropping
PDF Graphics).
I'm not sure if pdfcrop works in this case, though.

Thanks Yihui,
That's a great idea, and comes close to the mark, except that I have to
use png's in order to Insert Link them as pictures in Word (and
hence make the doc both shareable and update when new figures are
generated).
thanks,

you can open a device that has the exact dimensions of the table,

this works - thanks baptiste! i'm working in Sweave right now - perhaps
it will be tough in knitr as you mention.

My guess is that it would be impossible to use the table size in
Sweave, only mildly non-trivial in knitr with a proper hook. The
easiest hack in either of them would be to manually open the png
device, and use cat() with \includegraphics{} where you want the plot
diplayed.

Normally I hate the device()+code+dev.off()+cat('\\includegraphics{})
trick. Let me show you how trivial this can be in knitr:
https://gist.github.com/2790922
This example shows the real source code to the reader
(device()+dev.off() makes no sense to them), and leaves all the dirty
tricks behind
The hook function hook_pdfcrop() also works on PNG images, although
the function name is somehow misleading. The requirement is that you
have ImageMagick installed and the command 'convert' is in your PATH.

Hmm,
Thanks Liviu,
I've looked into SWord, and while it's an impressive project, I'm
concerned that it doesn't quite give me the fine-grain control I'd like
over the R environment where it's being executed. It's still in the
back of my mind though, and I may indeed go with it at some point.

Hello folks,
I've been on a journey trying to figure out how to manage documents that
are amenable to sharing and editing, but that contain dynamic content
generated by R. I've come to the following solution: I use Sweave to
generate labeled png pdf figures, and I Insert Link those figures

Take a look at addtable2plot in plotrix or grid.table / tableGrob in
gridExtras.

Thanks Michael - I think grid.table does the trick.
