In CJangelo/R2Word: Output R Tables to MS Word

R2Word

R2Word, an R package that uses flextable functions to quickly and easily create MS Word tables.

Description

Often R dataframes, matrices, or tables need to be printed out to a MS Word file that can then be moved into a slide deck. This sort of ad-hoc work requires a fast and easy transfer from R to MS Word. This is a small (3 functions) package that helps you do this. It mostly consists of using the flextable and officeR packages.

Installation

You can install the released version of R2Word from github using the devtools R package. Note that you may need to install Rtools40 on your machine. I have found that the instructions available here to be straightforward: https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/.

After installing Rtools40, do the following to install R2Word from github:

install.packages('devtools')
library(devtools)
devtools::install_github("CJangelo/R2Word")

This package probability won’t be released to CRAN, but this github repository will be updated due to how frequently me and my team use these functions.

Examples

For concise examples of how the functions can help your workflow, see the Introductory Vignette (https://cjangelo.github.io/R2Word/articles/introduction.html) under Articles at the top of this page.
