See attached. Two issues:
- You need to use chunk option results=asis (similar to results=tex
for Sweave)
- By default xtable() outputs the table in a floating environment; it
makes little sense to put that in a table float. Use print.xtable(...,
floating=F) to avoid this.

Liviu

Excellent.  I had tried xtable alone, that is without a float, but without the 
results=asis and and results=asis but with a float! 

Is there good idiot's guide to knitr around? I find the basic manuals not 
really manuals but good discussions of technical issues about knitr that go 
right over my head.

Thanks very, very  much. 

 The file table.knitr one is my last attempt to generate a table.  Not a
 success though there is something there.  table.kniter2.lyx is a successful
 example of my running the same code in R and then just cutting and pasting
 the resulting LaTeX code (minus the \begin{table}[ht]  \end{table} of
 course.

 Can anyone give me some pointers as to what I am doing wrong?  I seem to
 have spent about 2 hours trying to find some useful examples without much
 success.

 Thanks.

change font base size mid document

2013-05-11 Thread Gregory Jefferis 
I have an 11 pt article. I want to switch to a base size of 10pt for the 
Appendix. Is there a way to do this that will not cause trouble with e.g. text 
in superscripts or figure legends with different size fonts? I found these 
suggestions 


http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/4139/how-to-change-font-size-mid-document

but

\input{size#1.clo}%

completely reset margins etc

while 

 \fontsize{10}{12}\selectfont

had no effect.



Many thanks,

Greg.

Hi John,

When you send example files, can you send minimal example files? Your
example contains /home/john/rdata/gunhomicide.csv. This will of
course give an error on my computer. Also, try to make the files as
small as possible while still giving the error. See here for more
