Examples


library(dplyr) # required to run examples

# Example 1
head(iris) %>%
  rtf_body() %>%
  rtf_encode() %>%
  write_rtf(file = file.path(tempdir(), "table1.rtf"))

# Example 2
if (FALSE) {
library(dplyr) # required to run examples
file <- file.path(tempdir(), "figure1.png")
png(file)
plot(1:10)
dev.off()

# Read in PNG file in binary format
rtf_read_figure(file) %>%
  rtf_figure() %>%
  rtf_encode(doc_type = "figure") %>%
  write_rtf(file = file.path(tempdir(), "figure1.rtf"))
}
# Example 3

## convert tbl_1 to the table body. Add title, subtitle, two table
## headers, and footnotes to the table body.
data(r2rtf_tbl2)
## convert r2rtf_tbl2 to the table body. Add a table column header to table body.
t2 <- r2rtf_tbl2 %>%
  rtf_colheader(
    colheader = "Pairwise Comparison |
                   Difference in LS Mean(95% CI)\\dagger | p-Value",
    text_justification = c("l", "c", "c")
  ) %>%
  rtf_body(
    col_rel_width = c(8, 7, 5),
    text_justification = c("l", "c", "c"),
    last_row = FALSE
  )
# concatenate a list of table and save to an RTF file
t2 %>%
  rtf_encode() %>%
  write_rtf(file.path(tempdir(), "table2.rtf"))
