R markdown: can I insert a pdf to the r markdown file as an image?

Question

I am trying to insert a pdf image into an r markdown file. I know it is possible to insert jpg or png images. I was just wondering if it is also possible to insert a pdf image.

Answer 1

Sorry, I found that there is a similar post before: Add pdf file in Rmarkdown file

Basically, I can use something like below works well for the html output:

And something like below works well for the pdf output: (1)possible solution \begin{center}
\includegraphics[width=8in]{myFirstAlignment2.pdf}
\end{center} (2)possible solution ![Alt](myFirstAlignment2.pdf)

The myFirstAlignment2.pdf should be replaced with path\myFirstAlignment2.pdf if the pdf file is not in your working directory.
