Add documentation resolving cryptic LaTeX error due to missing OS libraries #25

Closed connorjbracy closed 2 years ago

connorjbracy commented 2 years ago

Some users may get an error when trying to generate a plot after enabling the stylesheet due to a LaTeX error such as ! LaTeX Error: File 'type1ec.sty' not found. It seems this is due to some missing LaTeX support in basic installations, but can be resolved by installing additional packages such as: apt-get install dvipng texlive-latex-extra texlive-fonts-recommended cm-super. See StackOverflow Question for reference.
