Details

To pass pre-made pdf vignettes through “as is”, a simple vignette process is added. It is derived from the more feature-complete one in the R.rsp package. To use it, add files named like the pdf file plus an appended .asis with the vignette metainformation and register the vignette processor, see the examples.

Value

The respective filename is returned, invisibly

Examples

# To register this vignette engine in another package, add
# \code{VignetteBuilder: Rcpp} as well as \code{Suggests: Rcpp} to \code{DESCRIPTION}
# which uses the registration this package provides via
## Not run: tools::vignetteEngine("asis", package = pkgname, pattern = "[.](pdf|html)[.]asis$",
                               weave = asisWeave, tangle = asisTangle)
## End(Not run)

# Use a .asis file as in the Rcpp package, for example Rcpp-FAQ.pdf.asis has these lines:
#   %\VignetteIndexEntry{Rcpp-FAQ}
#   %\VignetteKeywords{Rcpp, FAQ, R, Cpp}
#   %\VignettePackage{Rcpp}
#   %\VignetteEncoding{UTF-8}
#   %\VignetteEngine{Rcpp::asis}
