Hey
Trying to print coloured text from Markdown into a docx output.
It's easy in a table, etc. However, can't format inline.
I've tried $\color{red}{\text{Text to format}}$ and the Crayon library, however, neither seems to work for docx output.
The LaTeX markup won't work for a Word doc.
First, if you aren't aware already, check out the documentation to support special styling for Word docx outputwith R Markdown: Word Documents with R Markdown, also Happy collaboration with Rmd to docx.
Have you read this discussion?
Their advice worked for me on a Rmd doc to docx, though I'll note, word didn't like me using hyphens or spaces in my new style name.
