If you increase the output width, e.g.

options(width=10000)

won't wrap (but it'll probably be too wide to be useful).  You can also 
reduced the number of decimal places, e.g.

SYrounded <- round(SY, 3)

The main way to produce nice text in a PDF document through R is to use 
Sweave and LaTeX.  Too much explanation needed for a simple example here.
