Rich Inline Text for 'grid' Graphics and 'flextable'
Overview
Renders rich inline text (bold, italic, code, links, images) in grid graphics and 'ggplot2', from markdown or 'flextable' chunks. Provides grobs, theme elements, and geometry layers for styled text rendering. Only works with graphics devices that support 'systemfonts', such as those provided by 'ragg', 'svglite', or 'ggiraph'. The 'cairo_pdf' device is also supported when fonts are installed at the system level.
