Hello all,

Is there a way to write the dataframe data as a pdf file?

Thanks

No problem. Assuming you're data has been collected as "A =
Array[Array[Double]]" something along the lines of "A.map(x => x.mkString("
& ")).mkString(" \\\\ \n")" should do the trick. Another, somewhat more
convoluted, option would be to write your data as a CSV or other delimited
text file and then write a small Python/R wrapper which consumes those and
writes tex tables.

Thanks Anthony for the response.

Yes, the data in the dataframe represents a report and I want to create pdf
files.
I am using scala so hoping to find a easier solution in scala, if not I
will try out your suggestion .

Are you trying to produce a formatted table in a pdf file where the numbers
in the table come from a dataframe? I.e. to present summary statistics or
other aggregates? If so I would guess your best bet would be to collect the
dataframe as a Pandas dataframe and use the to_latex method. You can then
use a standard latex compiler to produce a pdf with a table containing that
data. I don't know if there's any comparable built-in for Scala, but you
could always collect the data as an array of arrays and write these to a
tex file using standard IO. Maybe someone has an easier suggestion.
