I am interested in outputting flextable objects (mainly summary statistics and regression tables) according to a particular Word Table-style. Based on prior Stack Overflow questions and documentation, e.g.

Applying a Word style (table or paragraph) to flextable object

I believe this is not possible in flextable alone. However, the new officedown package documentation says that it supports both Word Table styles and flextable objects.

Is it now possible to output say, flextable regression tables, according to a particular Word style using officedown? I could find no examples of this in the documentation.

I think you can now. See documentation here: https://ardata-fr.github.io/flextable-book/rendering.html

under '3.3 Rmarkdown' the knitr chunk options for specifying the word style names are given (tab.style & tab.cap.style). you would need to setup it all in your template word document.

  • Based on the answer I received from the package maintainer and the documentation of Package updates (https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/flextable/news/news.html), I believe that this capability is still not available, but I will make a test and if it works, happy to give you the credited answer. – Michael Lachanski Apr 06 '22 at 12:53
