I've noticed my document by default doesn't include a date and author - I can easily add in manually, but was wondering if it was a setting I should change in my Rstudio app?

Yup, you can definitely change it! I'll usually do HTML when I first start something because it's easiest. I'll then later change to a different format depending on what I need for my final deliverable.

Hi David,
I was experimenting the formats that we could product upon knitting RMarkdown. However, I ran into some trouble while attempting to produce a PDF output.
The error message on the 'compile PDF' tab was — Unable to find specific LaTeX program 'pdfLaTeX' on system path.
Does this mean that I might have to additionally install other packages to enable this?
