WRE section 2.3 [*] provides an example of \href with RFC3986 percent-encoding. Since % is a comment character in Rd, the percent signs have to be escaped with backslashes: \href{https://www.americansecurityproject.org/ASP\%20Reports/Ref\%200072\%20-\%20North\%20Korea\%E2\%80\%99s\%20Nuclear\%20Program\%20.pdf}{Derek Bolton (2012) North Korea's Nuclear Program} This only works correctly in R >= 3.1.3, but results in correct output in both HTML and PDF formats. Alternatively, it should be possible to declare the encoding of the Rd file using \encoding{UTF-8} (WRE 2.14 [**]), but in my tests (R 3.6.3, could have been fixed in later versions) it results in a broken link in Rd2pdf output. > I'm getting, " Note: significantly better compression could be > obtained by using R CMD build --resave-data".

The note offers you to try adding --resave-data to R CMD build, not --data-compress. What happens if you use --resave-data=best? --data-compress doesn't seem to be an R CMD build option; at least it's not mentioned in R CMD build --help. WRE 1.1.6 [***] provides an example of --data-compress as an option of R CMD INSTALL (not build). -- Best regards, Ivan P.S. > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] Please don't post in HTML.
