A template for creating html reports according to the style of
Edward R. Tufte and Richard Feynman, but with an updated font
choice. The three key functions tintHtml, tintPdf
and tintBook offer, respectively, support for html and
pdf-based shorter (“article-length” writeups as well as
support for longer pdf-based content.
tintHtml(...)tint(...)
tintPdf(fig_width = 4, fig_height = 2.5, fig_crop = TRUE,
dev = "pdf", highlight = "tango", citation_package = "natbib",
latex_engine = "pdflatex", ...)
tintBook(fig_width = 4, fig_height = 2.5, fig_crop = TRUE,
dev = "pdf", highlight = "tango", citation_package = "natbib",
latex_engine = "pdflatex", ...)
newthought(text)
margin_note(text, icon = "⊕")
quote_footer(text)
sans_serif(text)
Other arguments to be passed to
pdf_document or html_document
Note: For tintPdf and tintBook, you can
specify a custom template argument to replace the default.
You cannot use the theme argument in tintHHtml()
because this argument has been set internally.
Default width (in inches) for figures
Default height (in inches) for figures
TRUE to automatically apply the pdfcrop utility
(if available) to pdf figures
Graphics device to use for figure output (defaults to pdf)
Syntax highlighting style. Supported styles include
"default", "tango", "pygments", "kate", "monochrome", "espresso",
"zenburn", and "haddock". Pass NULL to prevent syntax highlighting.
The LaTeX package to process citations, natbib
or biblatex. Use none if neither package is to be used.
LaTeX engine for producing PDF output. Options are "pdflatex", "lualatex", and "xelatex".
A character string to be presented as a “new thought” (using small caps), or a margin note, or a footer of a quote
A character string to indicate there is a hidden margin note when the page width is too narrow (by default it is a circled plus sign)
tintHtml provides the HTML format based on the Tufte CSS
https://edwardtufte.github.io/tufte-css/ with fonts set according to
https://github.com/nogginfuel/envisioned-css.
tintPdf provides a similar PDF format using the same font family and
styling applied to the Tufte-LaTeX
https://tufte-latex.github.io/tufte-latex/ class.
tintBook is a (still somewhat experimental) pdf book variant.
newthought() can be used in inline R expressions in R
Markdown (e.g. `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.
