I think the file type you want (and how you will use the output)
should probably drive your choice. If you are going to pdf, then
Sweave/xtable/Hmisc:::latex are the best choices. If you are going to
a more editable file format (doc or odt), then consider odfWeave or
pdf/odf converter (which I think what Dr. Harrell does). HTML is
always an option, but you'll have to covert the document if that is
not your target format.

[R] odfWeave & xtable still best packages to produce tables?

2009-03-11 Thread Jason Rupert

Just a quick question - I did a quick search of the R-search 
(http://search.r-project.org/nmz.html) [thanks to David Winsemius for 
recommending this neat R search engine] and R-seek (http://www.rseek.org/) 
trying to find a package(s) in order to produce publication quality tables.  

I found several references to odfWeave and xtable.  My question is, are those 
still best R packages to produce publication quality tables tables from R?

Thank you for any feedback and insights. 

P.S. I know I should be trying to "Using Graphs Instead of Tables", but some 
customers (bosses) still like seeing tables.  Thanks again:)
