Overview

About

Maintained by David GohelFirst published 2021-03-3011 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Provides the ability to generate images from documents of different types. Three main features are provided: generating document thumbnails, performing visual tests of documents, and updating fields and tables of contents of a 'Microsoft Word' or 'RTF' document. 'Microsoft Word' and/or 'LibreOffice' must be installed on the machine. If 'Microsoft Word' is available, it can produce PDF documents or images identical to the originals; otherwise 'LibreOffice' is used and the rendering may sometimes differ from the original documents.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)

install.packages("doconv", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("ardata-fr/doconv")

Development version from ardata-fr/doconv. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-doconv

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-doconv

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager
