#Unfortunately, we cannot use the scale_down option with a longtable . So if a | |
#longtable is too wide, you can either manually adjust the font size, or show the table | |
#in landscape layout. To adjust the font size, use kableExtra’s font_size option: | |
a_long_table %>% | |
kable(booktabs = TRUE, longtable = TRUE) %>% | |
kable_styling(font_size = 9, latex_options = "repeat_header") | |
#To put the table in landscape mode, use kableExtra’s landscape function: | |
a_long_table %>% | |
kable(booktabs = TRUE, longtable = TRUE) %>% | |
kable_styling(latex_options = "repeat_header") %>% | |
landscape() | |
our_adjusted_table <- a_long_table %>% | |
kable(booktabs = TRUE, longtable = TRUE) %>% | |
kable_styling(latex_options = "repeat_header") %>% | |
# wrap the longtable in a tiny environment | |
str_replace('\\\\begin\\{longtable\\}', | |
'\\\\begin\\{scriptsize\\}\n\\\\begin\\{longtable\\}') %>% | |
str_replace('\\\\end\\{longtable\\}', | |
'\\\\end\\{longtable\\}\n\\\\end\\{scriptsize\\}') |
