chiaro_pdf: A format for article classes
In agoldst/scuro: An R Markdown Beamer-Presentation Setup

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Examples

This format is meant to supply only the TikZ-wrangling features of the package and to set up reasonable further defaults for an article rather than a presentation. For slides that use scuro's font and figure-drawing setup but not its color scheme, use scuro_md but with format option scuro=FALSE. For an article, rmarkdown's built-in render is flexible enough to handle all the processing from R markdown to PDF, including citation processing where needed. Simply set output: scuro::chiaro_pdf in your YAML header. The package includes an R markdown template demonstrating this format as well.

chiaro_pdf(
  fig_width = 4,
  fig_height = 2,
  fig_crop = TRUE,
  fig_caption = TRUE,
  dev = "tikz",
  highlight = "default",
  keep_tex = TRUE,
  citation_package = c("default", "biblatex"),
  latex_engine = "xelatex",
  plot_font = "mainfont",
  plot_font_options = NULL,
  pandoc_args = NULL,
  ...
)

`fig_width`	Natural figure width in inches. This is rescaled according to the value of chunk option `out.width` (by default, configured to use the natural width or the textwidth, whichever is smaller).
`fig_height`	Natural figure height in inches. `fig_width/fig_height` is the aspect ratio of the graphic.
`fig_crop`	Apply `pdfcrop`? Set by default.
`dev`	graphics device (`tikz`) by default.
`latex_engine`	`xelatex` by default
`plot_font`	If both XeLaTeX and TikZ are used, the package will set the font in graphics. Any system font name can be given. The default value `mainfont` selects the document main font.
`plot_font_options`	`fontspec` options for the `plot_font`.
`...`	remaining arguments (e.g. `include`) are passed on to `pdf_document`, which is the base of this format.

Among defaults selected here, of particular note are centering alignment for figures, a black-and-white ggplot theme, and stop-on-error. Errors, warnings, and messages will all go to the console, not into the final document. The intermediate LaTeX file will also be kept, as this is often necessary to diagnose typesetting errors.

Additional typesetting customizations are as described in https://github.com/agoldst/memarticle (the underlying pandoc template).
