Hi,
I use a program called Pandoc for this. Pandoc has a way to format tables and 
make them come out properly. You would give it the correct command line options 
and let it do its thing. I know it works because I have used it before. I would 
have to look up the Markdown syntax for the tables and the correct options for 
the command line, but as I said, I know from experience that it works. See 
http://www.pandoc.org.

Subject: [program-l] RMarkDown: tables in HTML and word output

Hi List,

I am using R for some data analysis, and find that the HTML that gets generated 
from RMarkDown does not have tables marked up as HTML tables. This makes it 
harder for a screen reader to read. Is there a way to have RMarkDown generate 
properly formatted documents? I tried word as well, but the resulting documents 
do not have any tables.

Thanks in advance for your help.
