nbconvert: html tables in markdown are not rendered in latex

For dataframes in particular, it would be helpful to embed the latex data in the notebook, which currently doesn’t happen. It looks like _repr_latex_ exists but returns None?

Solution: pd.set_option("display.latex.repr", True)

I had a pretty trivial table. Using markdown it creates a nice booktabs thing in the pdf, using html it creates the content of each cell one by one in a line. So maybe this is a pandoc issue?

This was not my main issue, but it is a bit inconvenient for pandas dataframes, which by default outputs as html. I just tried

from IPython.display import Latex
Latex(data.to_latex())

but that didn’t result in anything useful (the table was not rendered)

I’m having trouble with this solution here, the styled data frame shows up as:

<pandas.io.formats.style.Styler at 0x1202eed90>

I set the option as: pd.set_option("display.latex.repr", True)

Any advice?

Hey did you solve this by any chance?
