PDF rendering ?
sylvaticus opened this issue · comments
Ok, I may look a dinosaur, but sometimes a PDF is useful :-)
Is it possible to render the book as a single PDF ?
Never tried, but you should be able to render to PDF with quarto render --to pdf as explained in the Quarto docs:
Can you give it a try?
I believe it is possible as explained in the link above. Closing the issue.
hmmm... not straightforward.... running it I got the following error in the final step latex -> PDF conversion, apparently concerning the sole gif image of the book :

A PDF of a few pages is actually produced, but most figures are half out of page... perhapas one needs to adjust some quarto configuration....
Thanks for trying it.
PRs are welcome to fix the PDF output. It seems like a Quarto + Julia limitation, plus issues with image formats.
