Issue with Knit-ting

[JKHopf]

Hi,

I really love the look of the memor template, but I can't get it to knit to pdf_memo. The following issue is consistently output:

"! Missing $ inserted.

$
l.318 N
ote that the \texttt{echo\ =\ FALSE} parameter was added to the code

Try to find the following text in test.Rmd:
N

You may need to add $ $ around a certain inline R expression r in test.Rmd (see the above hint). See rstudio/rmarkdown#385 for more info.
Error: LaTeX failed to compile test.tex. See https://yihui.org/tinytex/r/#debugging for debugging tips. See test.log for more info.
Execution halted"

I have even tried with the template .Rmd file that RStudio gives when you open a new file (see copy of code below).

Can you suggest any fixes?

Cheers

So sorry for the delay! Looks like the error is being caused by the special character underscore "_" in the example on line 12 of the yaml, here is a corrected version (also use_profile is true/false):

--- title: "test" author: "JESS" date: "20/05/2021" output: memor::pdf_memo: use_profile: false company: name: Your company's name address: Your address phone: 888.888.8888 email: [email protected] short_title: short title footer_on_first_page: yes toc: yes lot: yes lof: yes number_sections: yes latex_engine: xelatex ---

If you need to use a special character like an underscore or colon within the YAML header, you'd need to escape the symbol as follows: your$\[email protected] or $\colon$
