# pandas.DataFrame.to_latex

`DataFrame.``to_latex`(buf=None, columns=None, col_space=None, colSpace=None, header=True, index=True, na_rep='NaN', formatters=None, float_format=None, sparsify=None, index_names=True, bold_rows=True, column_format=None, longtable=False, escape=True)

  Render a DataFrame to a tabular environment table. You can splice this into a LaTeX document. Requires usepackage{booktabs}.

  to_latex-specific options:

  bold_rows : boolean, default True
    Make the row labels bold in the output
  column_format : str, default None
    The columns format as specified in LaTeX table format e.g ‘rcl’ for 3 columns
  longtable : boolean, default False
    Use a longtable environment instead of tabular. Requires adding a usepackage{longtable} to your LaTeX preamble.
  escape : boolean, default True
    When set to False prevents from escaping latex special characters in column names.

  Parameters:

  buf : StringIO-like, optional

  > buffer to write to

  columns : sequence, optional

  > the subset of columns to write; default None writes all columns

  col_space : int, optional

  > the minimum width of each column

  header : bool, optional

  > whether to print column labels, default True

  index : bool, optional

  > whether to print index (row) labels, default True

  na_rep : string, optional

  > string representation of NAN to use, default ‘NaN’

  formatters : list or dict of one-parameter functions, optional

  > formatter functions to apply to columns’ elements by position or name, default None. The result of each function must be a unicode string. List must be of length equal to the number of columns.

  float_format : one-parameter function, optional

  > formatter function to apply to columns’ elements if they are floats, default None. The result of this function must be a unicode string.

  sparsify : bool, optional

  > Set to False for a DataFrame with a hierarchical index to print every multiindex key at each row, default True

  index_names : bool, optional

  > Prints the names of the indexes, default True

  Returns: | formatted : string (or unicode, depending on data and options)
