Description
I sometime use IPython's rich outputs to display PDF files (my use case is : pdf versions of plotly graphs generated in python, cf. https://github.com/mwouts/plotly_offline_export).
Unfortunately these are not captured by reticulate. Is this something that could be implemented ?
Attached is an example of such a PDF rich output.
reticulate_pdf.Rnw

Research direction
Start by reproducing the example in reticulate_pdf.Rnw and inspect how reticulate currently captures IPython rich outputs. Trace the handling of PDF output and determine the expected captured result; done means the supplied PDF example is captured without regressing existing rich-output behavior.
