compileLaTeX

From R.rsp v0.43.2 by Henrik Bengtsson

Compiles a LaTeX file

Compiles a LaTeX file to either PDF or DVI.

Keywords: internal, file, IO

Usage

# S3 method for default
compileLaTeX(filename, path=NULL, format=c("pdf", "dvi"), clean=FALSE, quiet=TRUE,
  texinputs=NULL, ..., outPath=".", verbose=FALSE)

Arguments

filename, path: The filename and (optional) path of the LaTeX document to be compiled. Only *.tex and *.ltx filename extensions are allowed.
format: A character string specifying the output format.
clean, quiet, texinputs: Additional arguments passed to texi2dvi.
...: Not used.
outPath: The output and working directory.
verbose: See Verbose.

Value

Returns the pathname of the generated (PDF or DVI) document.

Supported filename extensions

Internally texi2dvi is used, which in turn uses Sys.which("texi2dvi") if available. Most known implementation of the latter will only recognize LaTeX documents with filename extensions *.tex and *.ltx (case sensitive). (Any other filenames will be compiled with 'texinfo', which is not a LaTeX compiler.)
