Tao Shi,
Here is the repair for your query. Use this version of show.dvi temporarily
(until Hmisc includes it in its official version of show.dvi). This
function and
option setting will let the command
latex(x)
display the dvi file in a YAP window on Windows.
This version is not to be used
I didn't see that in the Adobe help file. There was some reference in the
Adobe online forum
http://forums.adobe.com/
but the first few hits were queries, not responses to the query. If you
pursue it, please
report success back to the list.

Your example showed up in landscape for me on the pdf file.
I needed to rotate the image in the Adobe Reader.
I like the appearance better with
show.dvi(dvi(x.tex <- latex(report,landscape=TRUE), width=8.5,
height=11))
where I changed the paper size in the dvi() command.

Notice that I didn't quite get my function into the Hmisc environment
and that is why you need the awkward phrase
show.dvi(dvi(x.tex <- latex(x)))
instead of the smooth phrase
latex(x)
Somehow with my own data and not using the awkward bit, it worked on my
Linux machine? At least I

Looks good. I came up with something on my own which was basically to
re-write print.latex. I call pdflatex a few times because with the
longtable package, sometimes things don't line up right until you run
pdflatex multiple times. I think mine is less flexible though, and I

Here is the full repair for the latex functions in Hmisc to make pdflatex
work in Windows.
This version is still slightly awkward. I hope that Charles and Frank will
smooth it out
and put it in their next release.
I added two new options() and revised show.dvi so it will use them.

HI:
If you don't mind me asking this question about latex:
Based on Duncan's comment:
"The print method for "latex" objects tries to run latex and then display the
resulting .dvi file. (Or maybe it runs pdflatex and displays the .pdf file)."

Excuse me b/c this is probably a more "TeX" then "R"
