writing data frame to pdf table

I have a data frame which I would like to write it to a pdf file in organized fashion.

For example, my df looks like this:

Date    County    Trade
1         


        

Answer 1

I really recommend you to use Rstudio with Knitr. It is very easy to create good reports.

For example,

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
<>=
library(xtable)
tab <- read.table(text = 'Date    County    Trade
1/1/2012  USA     5
1/1/2012  Japan   4
1/2/2012  USA     10
1/3/2012  Germany 15',header = TRUE)
print(xtable(tab),hline.after=c(2,3))   ## print.xtable have many smart options
@
\end{document}
