Thanks a lot Jim.
That helped resolve another error I was getting that pandoc was not installed.
I still get incorrectly formatted tables. Also, this link
<https://r-resources.massey.ac.nz/rmarkdown/> suggests not to use
knitr::pandoc. Is this different from what I am doing? I just import markdown
and use the reader function.

I literally started using R 2 days ago so please excuse if these questions are
trivial.

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.
