The 'munch' package renders rich inline text (bold, italic, code, links, images) in grid graphics and 'ggplot2', from markdown or 'flextable' chunks.
For 'ggplot2' integration, use element_md() and element_chunks() in
theme elements, or geom_text_md() and geom_label_md() for annotations.
Advanced usage
Use md_grob() to convert markdown text to a grid grob, or chunks_grob()
to convert 'flextable' paragraph objects (for superscripts, subscripts,
and custom colors not available in markdown).
Limitations
Only graphics devices that support 'systemfonts' are compatible:
'ragg', 'svglite', or 'ggiraph'. The cairo_pdf() device is also
supported when fonts are installed at the system level.
Standard R devices (pdf(), png(), jpeg()) are not compatible
but can still produce correct output if fonts are made available
to the device (e.g. via 'extrafont'). See the "Getting started" vignette
for details.
LaTeX and MathJax equations are not supported. For simple scientific
notation, use as_sup() and as_sub() from 'flextable'.
Only inline formatting is supported: bold, italic, code, strikethrough, links, and images. Block elements such as headings, bullet lists, and numbered lists are not available.
Options
munch.skip_device_checkIf set to
TRUE, the device compatibility warning is suppressed. Use this when you have ensured that the fonts used by 'munch' are available to the active graphics device (e.g. via 'extrafont' forpdf()). Set withoptions(munch.skip_device_check = TRUE).
