Dear all,
I'm trying to use a Markdown vignette with UTF-8 encoding. It compiles well
when knitting the vignette in RStudio, but it fails to recognize the UTF-8
settings when building the source package. Can someone point out what I'm
doing wrong? I tried to put the relevant information below.
Best regards,
Thierry
Details:
Using 64-bit R 3.1.2 with encoding = "native.enc" on Windows 7 with
Rstudio 0.97.1091.
The source packages is build using the devtools package. The build command is R
--vanilla CMD build "myPackage" --no-manual --no-resave-data
The DESCRIPTION file has
VignetteBuilder: knitr
Suggests: knitr
Imports: rmarkdown
The markdown vignette YAML contains
vignette: >
%\VignetteEngine{knitr::rmarkdown}
%\VignetteIndexEntry{The title}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
The custom output style converts the markdown to beamer with the --latex-engine
= xelatex flag.
The vignette in tar.gz passes R --vanilla CMD check --timings --as-cran
* checking files in 'vignettes' ... OK
* checking for unstated dependencies in vignettes ... OK
* checking package vignettes in 'inst/doc' ... OK
* checking running R code from vignettes ...
'markdown_intro.Rmd' using 'UTF-8' ... OK
OK
* checking re-building of vignette outputs ... [22s] OK

To call in the statistician after the experiment is done may be no more than
asking him to perform a post-mortem examination: he may be able to say what the
experiment died of.

Dear Duncan,
The UTF-8 characters aren't properly rendered in the pdf version of the
vignette.
$?? ????? ?????? ?????? ????? ?? ?? is rendered as $????? ??????????
???????????? ????? ?????? ? ???????? ????????
The same problem occurs when I use render("vignette.md", output_format
= "mypackage::mystyle"), instead of render("vignette.md",
output_format = "mypackage::mystyle", encoding = "UTF-8").
The default value of the encoding argument of rmarkdown::render() is encoding =
getOption("encoding"), which is "native.enc" on my system.
I'll post the question on an RStudio forum as well.
Best regards,
Thierry

You don't describe the symptoms of "failing to recognize", but
from the look of it, this is a problem with the knitr::rmarkdown engine or with
the devtools packaging, so you should probably ask on an RStudio forum.
