Dear Group,
I am rather stuck at a problem regarding conditional formatting. I used the github-version of DT and could apply a formatstyle in the browser window.
But when using the download button (button extension) the file is saved without formatting. Would you have any suggestions?

Unfortunately this does not seem to be possible. formatStyle() is
based on JavaScript, and the Buttons extension does not execute the
JavaScript code when you download the data to Excel or PDF. After some
brief testing, I found colors were not preserved when you simply print
the web page as PDF in Chrome, so I guess we have to resort to the
"stone-age" approach, i.e. take a screenshot of the table.
