Output NHA report content into Word document for editing #20

Having the report content generated directly into Word might make for easier transition from the old NHA system to the new NHA system for users, seems like this translator program, pandoc, gets used for this a lot.

Here is one example workflow that uses R markdown + pandoc + knitr + Word style templates to output content into a consistently formatted .docx https://rmarkdown.rstudio.com/articles_docx.html

Interesting. This seems to be the path we should take for the immediate future.
