R markdown link is not formatted blue when knitted to pdf
To elaborate on the answer by @eipi10, and to answer a question in the comments by @Maarten Punt, the urlcolor
is specifying the color for URL links referenced in the doc. However you might have links to other sections in your document, specified by linkcolor
. So you can specify either:
---
title: "R Notebook"
output:
pdf_document: default
urlcolor: blue
linkcolor: red
---
## test links vs urls
* see [the relevant section](#test)
[link](http://www.rstudio.com)
```{r cars}
summary(cars)
```
\newpage
## Including Plots{#test}
You can also embed plots, for example:
```{r pressure, echo=FALSE}
plot(pressure)
```
The red is a link within the document, whereas the blue is a URL link.
Add urlcolor: blue
to the yaml.

title: "R Notebook"
output:
pdf_document: default
html_notebook: default
urlcolor: blue
---
```{r, echo=F}
# tex / pandoc options for pdf creation
x <- Sys.getenv("PATH")
y <- paste(x, "E:\\miktex\\miktex\\bin", sep=";")
Sys.setenv(PATH = y)
```
