Markdown Formatting. Note that the R comment used above to add a title, author, and date includes a single-quote as a special prefix character. This is a roxygen2 style comment, and it’s actually possible to include many such comments in an R script, all of which will be converted to markdown content within the compiled report. Scenario 1 use R file the R file used markdownToHTML to convert the md file into HTML file with the CSS code embedded from the css file. It has nice formatting such as borders and colors in its headers for tables. However I wanted to do the same to PDF with the same css code embedded but wasn't successful or know the code that would do that.
Creating PDF output from R Markdown requires that LaTeX be installed.
R Markdown documents can have optional metadata that is used to generate adocument header that includes the title, author, and date. For more detailssee the documentation on R Markdown metadata.
R Markdown documents also support citations. You can find more information onthe markdown syntax for citations in theBibliographiesand Citations article in the online documentation.

Available metadata variables include:
