Hi guys, AFAICT, this conversation now discusses some domain-specific issues. However, in reply to OP and OQ, I'll shamelessly advertise the package that Gergely Daróczi and I have released recently. It's named "rapport", and you can grab it from CRAN or GitHub (https://github.com/aL3xa/rapport/). Check it out, as its purpose is to deliver reports in "bosses-friendly" format. It relies on pandoc, so you can easily convert it to external formats like ODT, DOCX, PDF, LaTeX, etc. Check out the project homepage for more details: http://rapport-package.info/
