writing a table in the device (pdf in this case)

[Julien Colomb]

hello all,
I would like to introduce a summary table into the pdf along with the
plots (in order to archive my data into single files automatically).
Similarly, It would be great to have the result of the statistical
analysis (for instance anova) in the same file.

Is there a way to do that?


example:
pdf("example.pdf")
layout (matrix(1:2,1,2))
plot (groups, scores)

Result <- cbind (samplesize, mean_score, sem_score)  #calculated before
???

dev.off ()

You probably want to look at "Sweave" in the "utils" package or the "odfWeave" package.

Both let you set up a planned set of commands interspersed with text (notes, explanations, full report, etc.) and then you process the file and get the output (and commands) in either a LaTeX file or an OpenOffice writer document, either of which can then be processed to a pdf file.  Both give several options for what input/output to return, inclusion of tables and graphs, and much more.

Hope this helps,
