I am using the code below to report a simpe Table to a PDF File. However there are always the quotes ( ' ' ) included in the report as seen in the Picture below. How can I get rid of the ' ' quotes?

cellarray1={'Hello';'Bye'};
cellarray2={'Hola';'Adios'};
import mlreportgen.report.*
import mlreportgen.dom.*
import mlreportgen.utils.*
makeDOMCompilable
t=table(cellarray1, cellarray2);
rpt = Report('Test','pdf');
open(rpt)
table=FormalTable(t);
add(rpt,table)
close(rpt)

hi
I don't use those reporting functions , but is there a chance that one of these has like writecell the option to remove quotes like this example :
writecell(new_line', 'out.txt',"QuoteStrings",0);

Hi,
Post-processing of the table entries can be done to remove the 'quotes' from the strings before adding the table to the report.
cellarray1={'Hello';'Bye'};
cellarray2={'Hola';'Adios'};
import mlreportgen.report.*
import mlreportgen.dom.*
import mlreportgen.utils.*
makeDOMCompilable
t=table(cellarray1, cellarray2);
rpt = Report('Test','pdf');
open(rpt)
table=FormalTable(t);
% post processing
tableRows = table.Children(1);
for ii = 1:tableRows.NRows
row = tableRows.Children(ii);
for jj = 1:row.NEntries
rowEntry = row.Entries(jj);
% strrep to omit quotes
rowEntry.Children.Content = strrep(rowEntry.Children.Content, '''', '');
end
end
add(rpt,table)
close(rpt)
Hope this helps
