If I use latex with describe: (faithful is the Old faithful data) latex(describe(faithful),file="describe.tex") then the first few lines of describe.tex are \begin{spacing}{0.7} \begin{center} \bf faithful \\ 2 Variables~~~~~ 272 ~Observations \end{center} I have two problems. First, I don't know what package the environment "spacing" comes from. (There is also a command \smaller, but that is from the relsize package. Perhaps the latex man page could list the latex packages that are necessary to create correct output.) Second, I use the memoir class, and it flags \bf as an error - \textbf should be used instead. A correct version would be \begin{center}\textbf{ faithful \\ 2 Variables~~~~~ 272 ~Observations}\end{center} thank you, Steve

Note for debian linux users - these styles are included in the package tetex-extra.> > Second, I use the memoir class, and it flags \bf as an error - > \textbf should be used instead.
