Rmarkdown to LaTeX


I made a presentation in RStudio with RMarkdown/Knitr - it compiles without problems to a pdf (via LaTeX Beamer).

But I cannot get the LaTeX file. Is there any way to export also the LaTeX file which should be produced in the conversion?


Solution

  • (This was not the original accepted answer, but has since been accepted and then edited to reflect this change.)

    As of late 2018, the following works:

    ---
    title: "Untitled"
    author: "Author Person"
    date: "November 26, 2018"
    output: 
      pdf_document: 
        keep_tex: yes
    ---
    

    Note that this answer is the YAML automatically inserted by the RStudio program (circa 2018) when you follow the instructions above to use the GUI to make this setting. So I assume the formatting is in the preferred style.
