Description

Table is saved to .docx properly when in separate chunk. When I try to generate many files from a loop it gives

Unknown output format doc
Pandoc can convert to DOCX, but not to DOC.
Error: pandoc document conversion failed with error 22

When generating .RTF files from the same loop it works properly

Reproducible example

Sample of data:

baza <- structure(list(data_file = c("032_01_012", "032_01_013", "032_01_026", 
"032_01_077", "032_01_088", "032_02_012", "032_02_040", "032_02_075", 
"032_02_086", "032_02_093", "032_03_013", "032_03_070"), chrom_number = c(12, 
13, 26, 77, 88, 12, 40, 75, 86, 93, 13, 70), seq_number = c(1, 
1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3), sample_id = c("BLK", "ZS", 
"1001A_Day_88_0.25h", "2002B_Day_88_2h", "2501B_Day_88_8h", "BLK", 
"1002A_Day_176_PD", "2001B_Day_176_8h", "2002B_Day_176_12h", 
"2501B_Day_176_4h", "ZS", "2001B_Day_267_12h"), sample_name = c("BLK", 
"ZS", "1001A_Day_88_0.25h", "2002B_Day_88_2h", "2501B_Day_88_8h", 
"BLK", "1002A_Day_176_PD", "2001B_Day_176_8h", "2002B_Day_176_12h", 
"2501B_Day_176_4h", "ZS", "2001B_Day_267_12h"), type = c("DoubleBlank", 
"Blank", "Sample", "Sample", "Sample", "DoubleBlank", "Sample", 
"Sample", "Sample", "Sample", "Blank", "Sample"), compound = c("HNK", 
"HNK", "HNK", "HNK", "HNK", "DHNK", "KET", "HNK", "HNK", "HNK", 
"KET", "HNK"), is_reint = c(0.622, 0.853, 0.873, 0.862, 0.873, 
2.495, 2.307, 0.886, 0.905, 0.875, 2.512, 0.916)), row.names = c(NA, 
-12L), class = c("tbl_df", "tbl", "data.frame"))

Code:

seq <- 2

sub <- paste("Run 032_", str_pad(seq, 2, pad = "0"), sep = "")
  
  seq_list <- baza %>%
    filter(seq_number == seq) %>%
    rowid_to_column("No") %>%
    select(No, chromatogram_no = data_file,
           sample_name, compound) %>%
    gt() %>%
    tab_header(title = "Reintegrated chromatogram list",
                       subtitle = sub)
  
  gtsave(
    seq_list,
    filename = paste("reintegrated_list_", sub, ".docx", sep = ""),
    path = "Reintegrated/"
  )

Works properly for single seq. Works for any of seq from dataframe.

When put in a loop like this:

seq <- 1:3

for (sequence in seq) {
  sub <- paste("Run 032_", str_pad(sequence, 2, pad = "0"), sep = "")
  
  seq_list <- baza %>%
    filter(seq_number == sequence) %>%
    rowid_to_column("No") %>%
    select(No, chromatogram_no = data_file,
           sample_name, compound) %>%
    gt() %>%
    tab_header(title = "Reintegrated chromatogram list",
               subtitle = sub)
  
  gtsave(
    seq_list,
    filename = paste("reintegrated_list_", sub, ".docx", sep = ""),
    path = "Reintegrated/"
  )
  
}

Gives error message quoted previously.

When one line is changed to:

filename = paste("reintegrated_list_", sub, ".rtf", sep = "")

It properly generates 3 files.

Expected result

It should generate .docx files.
