Weird interaction with lots of previous equations when generating PDF - flextable "fails" #636
Comments
I tried removing equations in turn, and it fails with a particular equation (as seen in the revised MWE). This equation tried to render a subscript symbol (theta). |
And the "winner" is a simple equation of The error must be caused when the font for "exp" conflicts somehow with the font specification used by flextable if flextable calls occurs after this. Again, if I put a call to flextable before the equation by changing the include: false to include: true , everything works out fine Very odd. Carl. |
Very strange issue that appears to be flextable related.
I have a quarto document (included at end). Compiles fine into HTML.
When I try and compile into PDF, I get a LateX error:

This comes from the final flextable call.
If I reduce the number of previous equations, it eventually compiles.
If I run the same chunk BEFORE the equations (e.g. change the third chunk include: to true in the MWE), then it compiles just fine as well.
