I am creating pdf slides using rmarkdown and beamer. When using latex instead of rmarkdown, I can include arbitrary pages from pdf files into my slides with
\usepackage{pdfpages}
...
\includepdf[pages={1-10}]{another_file.pdf}
Is it possible to achieve this with rmarkdown? Note that when just issuing the \includepdf command, intended to be located between slides, pandoc wraps it between \begin{frame} and \end{frame}.
Not a perfect solution but it works (adapted from https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/11458/error-when-inserting-a-pdf-page-into-a-beamer-presentation?newreg=10fd6a4a46c642118eb4ec905cf87303): use \includegraphics instead of includepdf. This works inside of frames but you have to manyally create a frame for each page you want to insert as it only allows to insert a single page at time.

title: "Foo"
output:
beamer_presentation:
---
# Stolen image
---
\includegraphics[page=1,width=\paperwidth]{lecture-1-terminal.pdf}
# My own work
## My slide 1
Great stuff!
In rmarkdown you can use pdfpages like this:
---
output:
beamer_presentation:
keep_tex: true
header-includes:
- \usepackage{pdfpages}
- \setbeamercolor{background canvas}{bg=}
- \makeatletter\beamer#ignorenonframefalse\makeatother
---
test
``` {=latex}
\end{frame}
\includepdf[pages=1-10]{example-image-duck}
\begin{frame}
```
test
(the line \setbeamercolor{background canvas}{bg=} is necessary for beamer versions < 3.64, a patch has been added in 9e3bb9)
As you mentioned, you can inlcude raw TeX in Pandoc Markdown. For me the following works:
$ pandoc -t beamer
foo
\includepdf[pages={1-10}]{another_file.pdf}
bar
^D
which results in:
\begin{frame}
foo
\includepdf[pages={1-10}]{another_file.pdf}
bar
\end{frame}
Maybe you need to update your pandoc version? (I'm currenlty using 2.0 from pandoc nightlies)

I am trying to run a Lua filter for multiple bibliographies to create a separate list of references for each chapter of my thesis.
This is my YAML header:
title: ''
output:
pdf_document:
latex_engine: pdflatex
number_sections: TRUE
pandoc_args: --lua-filter=multiple-bibliographies.lua
always_allow_html: true

- \usepackage{setspace}\spacing{1.5}
- \usepackage{fancyhdr}
- \usepackage{lastpage}

- \usepackage{natbib}
- \usepackage[nottoc, numbib]{tocbibind}
- \usepackage{ragged2e}
- \usepackage{pdflscape}

bibliopgraphy_ch2: Vysevovy_clanek.bib
bibliopgraphy_ch3: Seeds.bib

citation_package: biblatex
csl: journal-of-ecology.csl
At the end of each chapter I have:

I am not very experienced with pandoc and LaTeX so this might be a simple error on my side. However, when I try to knit the document, it gives me an error:
Error running filter multiple-bibliographies.lua: PandocFilterError
"pandoc" "Could not find executable pandoc" stack traceback:
multiple-bibliographies.lua:50: in upvalue 'run_citeproc'
multiple-bibliographies.lua:82: in function
<multiple-bibliographies.lua:68> Error: pandoc document conversion
failed with error 83
I've been struggling with the bibliographies for several days and I think this is the last option but I am open to other possibilities in RMarkdown.
I am running this on Ubuntu 20, pandoc version 2.19.2, rmarkdown_2.18, R version 4.2.2
The problem is that the filter tries to call pandoc, but cannot find it, as it does not check the environment variables set by RStudio. This is fixed in the updated version of this filter, multibib, which uses some newer pandoc features to work around this. The new version can also be installed as a Quarto extension.
Note, however, the slightly changed syntax used in multibib, as everything must now be nested below the bibliography key:
---
bibliography:
Intro: Intro.bib
ch1: Endozoochory.bib
ch2: Vysevovy_clanek.bib
ch3: Seeds.bib
ch4: Landscape.bib
---
Please also try the section-bibliographies filter, which might be a better fit for your use-case.
I am trying to use Rmarkdown to create answer/solutions twin PDF documents. I embedded the solutions in a frame using the tcolorbox LaTeX package. Also, I am using LaTeX's comment package to easily toggle the solutions on and off. However, R chunks inside the comment environment are not well rendered. Here's a MWE:
---
title: "Untitled"
output:
pdf_document
header-includes:
- \usepackage{tcolorbox}
- \usepackage{comment}
- \includecomment{comment} % toggle include / exclude
- \newcommand{\benum}{\begin{enumerate}}
- \newcommand{\eenum}{\end{enumerate}}
---
```{r, include=FALSE}
library(tidyverse)
```
\benum
\item The R chunk inside the \verb+comment+ environment is not rendered correctly:
\begin{comment}
\tcolorbo
```{r, echo=TRUE, eval = TRUE, results='asis'}
a <- rnorm(20)
a
```
\endtcolorbox
\end{comment}
\item But the same chunk outside the \verb+comment+ environment is rendered fine:
\tcolorbox
```{r, echo=TRUE, eval = TRUE, results='asis'}
a <- rnorm(20)
a
```
\endtcolorbox
\eenum
Here's the result:
How can I achieve what I want?
Many thanks in advance!
I made a file in rmarkdown to submit to a journal, but when I went to actually upload the file, they want raw latex. Okay, part of my YAML is.
output:
pdf_document:
keep_tex: true
header-includes:
- \usepackage{color}
- \usepackage{lineno}
- \linenumbers
The preview of the document looks great, except it starts out like this (just text not, in code format:
[]article lmodern amssymb,amsmath ifxetex,ifluatex fixltx2e =0 [T1]fontenc
[utf8]inputenc fontspec Ligatures=TeX,Scale=MatchLowercase upquote microtype
[protrusion]basicmath [margin=1in]geometry hyperref graphicx,grffile parskip
titling
color lineno
followed by everything I want. Where do I look to get rid of this?
I am trying to edit the latex file generated by RStudio but it seems the file generated by RStudio does not compile out of the box.
Here is the template rmarkdown (edited a little as I want to show code in my slides)
---
title: "Untitled"
author: "SN248"
date: "April 17, 2016"
output:
beamer_presentation:
keep_tex: true
theme: "CambridgeUS"

```{r setup, include=FALSE}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE)
```
## R Markdown
This is an R Markdown document. Markdown is a simple formatting syntax for authoring HTML, PDF, and MS Word documents. For more details on using R Markdown see <http://rmarkdown.rstudio.com>.
Some code
```{r eval=FALSE, echo=TRUE}
install.packages("mypackage")
library(mypackage)
```
## Including Plots
You can also embed plots, for example:
```{r pressure, echo=TRUE}
plot(pressure)
```
Note that the `echo = FALSE` parameter was added to the code chunk to prevent printing of the R code that generated the plot.
Note, that I added keep_tex: true to get the intermediate tex file, the generated tex file is pasted below:
\begin{frame}[fragile]{R Markdown}
This is an R Markdown document. Markdown is a simple formatting syntax
for authoring HTML, PDF, and MS Word documents. For more details on
using R Markdown see \url{http://rmarkdown.rstudio.com}.
Some code
\begin{Shaded}
\begin{Highlighting}[]
\KeywordTok{install.packages}\NormalTok{(}\StringTok{"mypackage"}\NormalTok{)}
\KeywordTok{library}\NormalTok{(mypackage)}
\end{Highlighting}
\end{Shaded}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[fragile]{Including Plots}
You can also embed plots, for example:
\begin{Shaded}
\begin{Highlighting}[]
\KeywordTok{plot}\NormalTok{(pressure)}
\end{Highlighting}
\end{Shaded}
\includegraphics{Untitled_files/figure-beamer/pressure-1.pdf}
Note that the \texttt{echo\ =\ FALSE} parameter was added to the code
chunk to prevent printing of the R code that generated the plot.
\end{frame}
I noticed that the generated tex file does not compile out of the box. So, I added the necessary bits (i.e., package listings for code highlighting) so that it compiles
\documentclass[hyperref={pdfpagelabels=false}]{beamer}
\usepackage{lmodern}
\usepackage{listings}
\usetheme{CambridgeUS}
\begin{document}
...
\end{document}
I am still not able to compile this tex file as the bit begin{Shaded} does not compile, I get the following error:
LaTeX Error: Environment Shaded undefined
My question is, how to generate tex file from RStudio which compiles out of the box. If not, which packages should I use to compile the tex code (especially to show code with highlighting) shown below
\begin{Shaded}
\begin{Highlighting}[]
\KeywordTok{install.packages}\NormalTok{(}\StringTok{"mypackage"}\NormalTok{)}
\KeywordTok{library}\NormalTok{(mypackage)}
\end{Highlighting}
\end{Shaded}
Just to give some context, I am trying to compile the tex file so that I can add sections and subsections in the tex code, I am not sure how to do that in the rmarkdown file.
Thank you very much for your help.

I can see that you are using RMarkdown and want to generate a stand alone .tex file that can be compiled without knitr.
I do the same thing with SWeave. As SWeave is a latex document with R code, you can easily compile it once SWeave is run and figures are created.
For Example, I have created this document in RStudio and compile it in Rstudio.
\documentclass{article}
\title{Best title ever}
\author{XTriMa, PhD}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\tableofcontents
\section{Method} \label{intro}
Let me make two vectors with random numbers and plot them.
<<>>=
x<-runif(100)
y <- x^(sin(x))
plot(x, y)
#
\end{document}
My folder looks like this
figure test.log test.Rnw test.tex
test-concordance.tex test.pdf test.synctex.gz test.toc
Now if you run
$pdflatex test.tex
It works as you intended. However command "latex" will not work as it can not work with pdf graphics in figures.
Advantage: I can work with R and latex very efficiently and get rid of intermediate software/clients like RStudio and Sweav.
How can I show page numbers (preferably like 4/10, 5/10 etc.) on an rmarkdown beamer presentation?
In the front matter of the document, you can include a .tex file with extra commands as shown in RStudio's documentation here.
I created a new .tex file that I called "header_pagenrs.tex" which only includes the top 2 lines from #user4281727's answer:
\setbeamertemplate{navigation symbols}{}
\setbeamertemplate{footline}[page number]
Then I referenced this file at the top of my .Rmd file:
---
title: "Things and Stuff"
author: "Me"
output:
beamer_presentation:
includes:
in_header: header_pagenrs.tex
---
If this still gives you errors, you might also be missing some required TeX packages (a separate problem from RStudio and rmarkdown).
Here's another option that worked for me. Didn't need to add a .tex file to my folder. Just included the following (based on above code from #civilstat) at the top of my Markdown doc.
---
title: 'Your Title'
author: "Your Name"
date: "July 4, 1776"
output:
beamer_presentation(keep_tex = TRUE): default
header-includes:
- \setbeamertemplate{navigation symbols}{}
- \setbeamertemplate{footline}[page number]
---
If your beamer version is reasonable up to date (>= v3.48), you can adjust the format of the frame numbers while keeping the footline of your chosen beamer theme unchanged otherwise.
---
output:
beamer_presentation:
theme: "Berlin"
keep_tex: true
header-includes:
- \setbeamertemplate{page number in head/foot}[totalframenumber]
---
test
Try to put the lines below into the template
\setbeamertemplate{navigation symbols}{}
\setbeamertemplate{footline}[page number]
