I would like to download a pdf file from the internet and save it in the local HD. After download, the pdf output file has lots of empty pages. What can I do to fix it?
Example:
require(XML)
url <- ('http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-intro.pdf')
download.file(url, 'introductionToR.pdf')
Thanks in advance.
Try with wb-mode like this:
download.file(url, 'introductionToR.pdf', mode="wb").For me it works that way.
