Tools for making latex tables in R

On general request, a community wiki on producing latex tables in R. In this post I'll give an overview of the most commonly used packages and blogs with code for producing latex tables from less straight-forward objects. Please feel free to add any I missed, and/or give tips, hints and little tricks on how to produce nicely formatted latex tables with R.

Packages :

  • xtable : for standard tables of most simple objects. A nice gallery with examples can be found here.
  • memisc : tool for management of survey data, contains some tools for latex tables of (basic) regression model estimates.
  • Hmisc contains a function latex() that creates a tex file containing the object of choice. It is pretty flexible, and can also output longtable latex tables. There's a lot of info in the help file ?latex
