Creating a footer for every page using R markdown

问题

I'm writing a document in R Markdown and I'd like it to include a footer on every page when I knit a PDF document. Does anyone have any idea on how to do this?

回答1:

Yes, this question has been asked and answered here: Adding headers and footers using Pandoc. You just need to sneak a little LaTeX into the YAML header of your markdown document.

This markdown header does the trick:

---
title: "Test"
author: "Author Name"
header-includes:
- \usepackage{fancyhdr}
- \pagestyle{fancy}
- \fancyhead[CO,CE]{This is fancy header}
- \fancyfoot[CO,CE]{And this is a fancy footer}
- \fancyfoot[LE,RO]{\thepage}
output: pdf_document
---

Works for me with an Rmd file in RStudio Version 0.98.1030 for Windows.

Another option would be to use the argument includes provided by rmarkdown::pdf_document() (documentation). This allows you to keep the footer in a separate file. If your footer is defined in footer.tex, the header of your R Markdown file would look like this:

---
output:
  pdf_document:
    includes:
      after_body: footer.tex
---

This also assumes that footer.tex is in the same directory as the R Markdown file.
