rtables to Microsoft Word and beyond
The rtables.officer package provides a framework to export tables created with rtables to Microsoft Word documents. To do so, we use the officer package to create a Word document and the flextable package to produce the intermediary table object that officer can use to create the Word document.
Please refer to the following packages for further information: - rtables to create tables. - flextable as an intermediate html table object. Many aesthetic functionalities are available at this stage. - officer to create Word documents. Please consider also other exporter options (e.g. html) that are available from flextable.
rtables and rtables.officer is developed and copy written by F. Hoffmann-La Roche and it is released open source under Apache License Version 2.
rtables.officer is available on CRAN and you can install the latest released version with:
install.packages("rtables.officer")
or you can install the latest development version directly from GitHub with:
# install.packages("pak")
pak::pak("insightsengineering/rtables.officer")
Here’s a simple example demonstrating how to create a basic table layout, perform analysis on various columns, and export the resultant table to a Word document in landscape orientation. Further reading are available in the vignettes.
# Define the table layout
lyt <- basic_table() %>%
split_cols_by("ARM") %>%
analyze(c("AGE", "BMRKR2", "COUNTRY"))
# Build the table
tbl <- build_table(lyt, ex_adsl)
# Export the table to a Word document in landscape orientation
tf <- tempfile(fileext = ".docx")
export_as_docx(tbl,
file = tf,
section_properties = section_properties_default(orientation = "landscape")
)
# Expected output (with default theme)
tt_to_flextable(tbl, theme = theme_docx_default())
