Hi Ivan,
Using the R GUI and the built-in editor, you should be able to format your
document in the standard Rmarkdown or knitr way and save it with the
appropriate extension (Rmd or Rnw), but only run lines within chunks in the
console (using command + enter in the normal way). You can make sure all the
chunks are working in that way. Then to format the whole document you can use a
command in the Terminal as described in the links Tom sent or reopen the
document in Rstudio.
Somehow my R GUI can’t find the right pieces to make the pdf, so I have to use
the Terminal. render("EstObsErr.Rmd") produces the error
/usr/local/bin/pandoc EstObsErr.utf8.md --to latex --from
markdown+autolink_bare_uris+ascii_identifiers+tex_math_single_backslash-implicit_figures
--output EstObsErr.pdf --template
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.2/Resources/library/rmarkdown/rmd/latex/default-1.14.tex
--highlight-style tango --latex-engine pdflatex --variable
'geometry:margin=1in'
pandoc: pdflatex not found. pdflatex is needed for pdf output.
Error: pandoc document conversion failed with error 41
cheers,
Mollie
