Text Styling: Advanced Formatting and Rendering Techniques

Standard plot text is usually rigid and uniform, making it difficult to highlight key takeaways or build advanced layouts. Basic text elements simply aren't built to handle complex structures like varying text formats, lists, or embedded images.

In this lesson, you’ll explore ggtext and marque to render Markdown and rich-text directly into your plots. You’ll learn to emphasize specific words, replace clunky legends with clear descriptions, and integrate advanced elements like lists, code chunks, and images.
