Determine lines per page (LPP) and characters per page (CPP) based on font and page type

Usage

page_lcpp(
  page_type = page_types(),
  landscape = FALSE,
  font_family = "Courier",
  font_size = 8,
  lineheight = 1,
  margins = c(top = 0.5, bottom = 0.5, left = 0.75, right = 0.75),
  pg_width = NULL,
  pg_height = NULL
)

Arguments

page_type: (string)
name of a page type. See page_types. Ignored when pg_width and pg_height are set directly.
landscape: (flag)
whether the dimensions of page_type should be inverted for landscape orientation. Defaults to FALSE, ignored when pg_width and pg_height are set directly.
font_family: (string)
name of a font family. An error will be thrown if the family named is not monospaced. Defaults to "Courier".
font_size: (numeric(1))
font size. Defaults to 12.
lineheight: (numeric(1))
line height. Defaults to 1.
margins: (numeric(4))
named numeric vector containing "bottom", "left", "top", and "right" margins in inches. Defaults to .5 inches for both vertical margins and .75 for both horizontal margins.
pg_width: (numeric(1))
page width in inches.
pg_height: (numeric(1))
page height in inches.

Value

A named list containing LPP (lines per page) and CPP (characters per page) elements suitable for use by the pagination machinery.
