accessr: Command Line Tools to Produce Accessible Documents using 'R
Markdown'
Provides functions to produce accessible 'HTML' slides, 'HTML',
'Word' and 'PDF' documents from input 'R markdown' files. Accessible 'PDF'
files are produced only on a 'Windows' Operating System. One aspect of
accessibility is providing a headings structure that is recognised by a
screen reader, providing a navigational tool for a blind or
partially-sighted person. A key aim is to produce documents of different
formats easily from each of a collection of 'R markdown' source files.
Input 'R markdown' files are rendered using the render() function from the
'rmarkdown' package <https://cran.r-project.org/package=rmarkdown>. A 'zip'
file containing multiple output files can be produced from one function
call. A user-supplied template 'Word' document can be used to determine the
formatting of an output 'Word' document. Accessible 'PDF' files are
produced from 'Word' documents using 'OfficeToPDF'
<https://github.com/cognidox/OfficeToPDF>. A convenience function,
install_otp() is provided to install this software. The option to print
'HTML' output to (non-accessible) 'PDF' files is also available.
