Add Line Breaks in R Markdown To break a line in R Markdown and have it appear in your output, use two trailing spaces and then hit return .
To add an image in markdown you must stop text editing, and you do this with the command [Alt text] precedeed by a ! Then you have to add the path to the image in brackets. The path to the image is the path from your directory to the image.
Rmd file, you may now add text to your document. You may start with the most basic word processing—simply typing your text below the YAML header section. If you want to start a new paragraph, you can simply hit Enter twice on your key- board, and begin writing again.
RMarkdown is an extension to markdown which includes the ability to embed code chunks and several other extensions useful for writing technical reports. The rmarkdown package extends the knitr package to, in one step, allow conversion between an RMarkdown file (.Rmd) into PDF, HTML, word document, amongst others.
Simply \newpage or \pagebreak will work, e.g.
hello world
\newpage
```{r, echo=FALSE}
1+1
```
\pagebreak
```{r, echo=FALSE}
plot(1:10)
```
This solution assumes you are knitting PDF. For HTML, you can achieve a similar effect by adding a tag <P style="page-break-before: always">. Note that you likely won't see a page break in your browser (HTMLs don't have pages per se), but the printing layout will have it.
In the initialization chunk I define a function
pagebreak <- function() {
if(knitr::is_latex_output())
return("\\newpage")
else
return('<div style="page-break-before: always;" />')
}
In the markdown part where I want to insert a page break, I type
`r pagebreak()`
You can make the pagebreak conditional on knitting to PDF. This worked for me.
```{r, results='asis', eval=(opts_knit$get('rmarkdown.pandoc.to') == 'latex')}
cat('\\pagebreak')
```
