I have been asked this by a few people now and think it could be due to not having tinytex as the latex manager. As this issue was not occuring for me on a brand new machine. With that said I'm not sure if it is a Mac OS problem. Are you using a Mac, Windows, or Linux operating system @higgi13425 ?

For now the only thing I can think of is to uninstall any old versions of latex packages and do a fresh install with tinytex. Whenever you have the time to do so please let me know and in the meantime I'll try and find someone with a Mac to try and reproduce the error.

Thanks

It would depend on the version of Tex you used. I believe you said that you were going to try MacTeX, if so here is the documentation for uninastalling MacTeX that I found on their site. Seems to be fairly straight forward. If this doesn't work I will have to find a colleague who has a Mac and try installing it myself to troubleshoot.

Once that is done I would uninstall posterdown then reinstall:

remove.packages("posterdown")

devtools::install_github("brentthorne/posterdown")

If prompted to update other packages during the install you can select the "None" option and it should install fine.

Is there any chance that you have access to a windows machine which you could test on as well to see if the problem is the same for you? If not that's okay it may just be a few days until I figure it out.
