Details

`newthought()` can be used in inline R expressions in R Markdown ```r `r newthought(Some text)` ``` and it works for both HTML (<span class="newthought">text</span>) and PDF (\newthought{text}) output.

`margin_note()` can be used in inline R expressions to write a margin note (like a sidenote but not numbered).

`quote_footer()` formats text as the footer of a quote. It puts `text` in <footer></footer> for HTML output, and after \hfill for LaTeX output (to right-align text).

`sans_serif()` applies sans-serif fonts to `text`.

`handout()` provides the PDF format

`html()` provides the HTML format based on the scientific CSS

Examples

newthought("In this section")
if (FALSE) {
# for Rmd to HTML
library(rmarkdown)
library(scientific)
rmdfile <- "input.Rmd"
rmarkdown::render(rmdfile,
  scientific::html(
    toc = TRUE,
    toc_depth = 2))
}
