msa package provides a unified R/Bioconductor interface to different multiple sequence alignment algorithms. Currently, ‘ClustalW’, ‘ClustalOmega’, and ‘MUSCLE’ are supported. All algorithms are usable without additional software packages and on all major platforms. You will find reference here www.rdocumentation.org/packages/msa/versions/1.4.3/topics/msa-package
when it says 'pdflatex is not available', how do you reconcile that?

How did you get the Clustalw

You can call or declare the ClustalW object/function in the code. R will tell you the rest.
