This function prints a table to PDF via pdfit, which calls xtable and the LaTeX pdflatex function. It will only work if you have command-line LaTeX installed.

  pdftable(table_vals, pdffn = "tmptable.pdf",
    size = "\\tiny", tmpdir = "~", openPDF = TRUE,
    caption = NULL)

`table_vals`	A table, hopefully produced by `conditional_format_table`.
`pdffn`	The filename for the output PDF (and the prefix for the intermediate files).
`size`	Font size, overriding `getOption("xtable.size")`. Default is "tiny" (with backslashes). You can also try "small". Input `NULL` (without quotes or backslashes) for medium. (`NULL` is the options default.)
`tmpdir`	The location for the temporary files.
`openPDF`	If `TRUE`, open the PDF via a `system` command.
`caption`	A caption, if desired.

This function was inspired by http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/15013/generate-a-pdf-containing-r-output-inside-latex-table.

pdffn The filename of the PDF file.

Go BEARS!
