I want to insert an image into a flextable which works perfectly when using the knit button. However, I need to execute the code by calling rmarkdown::render(input = "path_to_file/file.Rmd").

This generates the following error message:

Error in save_kable(x = x, file = temp_png, ...) :
argument "x" is missing, with no default

This is the YAML:

---
output: 
    officedown::rdocx_document
---

And this is a reproducable example:

```{r}
library(officer)
library(flextable)
library(officedown)

img.file <- file.path( R.home("doc"), "html", "logo.jpg" )

myft <- flextable( head(iris))

myft <- compose(myft, i = 1:3, j = 1,
  value = as_paragraph(as_image(src = img.file, width = .20, height = .15)))

ft <- autofit(myft)
ft
```

  • I am not able to reproduce, it generates the expected document. Can you add your session info? I don't understand why `save_kable` is mentioned in the error... – David Gohel Jul 08 '22 at 16:50

I tested your codes and it worked fine. As David Gohel mentioned, save_kable error does not refer to your reproducable example. Maybe you have other code lines remaining in your Rmd. file that cause the issue.

  • Thanks for the response and you were right. I had included `library(kableExtra)` before which was causing the problem. @DavidGohel When adding this library, the `save_kable` error occurs. – Sophie Wupper Jul 20 '22 at 13:07
