Installation

To compile PDF documents with R, you must have Pandoc, LaTeX, and a few other packages installed.

1. Pandoc: Pandoc is already installed if you have a recent version of RStudio. There's no need to be concerned if you're unfamiliar with pandoc.

2. XeLatex: The pdf RMarkdown templates compile with XeLatex. You will need to install some version of XeLatex. If you do not have one, there is a simple way in R. Tinytex is A lightweight LaTeX distribution that is sufficient for compiling pdf templates. To install the tinytex package and a working version of LaTeX run these commands:

install.packages("tinytex")
tinytex::install_tinytex()

The MPITheme package requires additional LaTeX dependencies that tinytex does not install by default. If you are online, these dependencies will be installed automatically.

1. Install X11: X11 is no longer included with Mac, but X11 server and client libraries are available from the XQuartz project. For more information see CRAN instructions.

2. Install Fonts: Before render templates, Univers and FontAesome fonts must be installed on your machine.

3. MPITheme: Install the MPITheme package from GitHub. This package is not (yet) available on CRAN.

if(!require(devtools)) install.packages("devtools") 
devtools::install_github("lcreteig/MPIThemes") 

After installing the package, you may need to restart RStudio in order to add new templates to Rstudio.

Create Report

Follow these simple steps to create the First Report.:

1: In RStudio menu, go to File > New File > R Markdown > From Template.

2: Select the pdf report template from the list, Then set the name and directory location and finally click OK. In a location directory, a Rmd file and a project structure will be created.

3: Knit the document by clicking on the Knit icon in the top bar of the Rstudio editor or its better to use keyboard shortcut for knitr, command + Shift + K on a Mac, or Ctrl + Shift + K on Linux and Windows.

4: Your document will automatically include default YAML headers
