Could not convert TeX math and Package inputenc Error when converting to PDF

[sjackman]

I'm getting the following two errors when running pandiff.

[WARNING] Could not convert TeX math '\textrm{PPV} = \frac{55}{210} = 0.26', rendering as TeX

which may be avoided by adding --mathjax to the command line.

! Package inputenc Error: Unicode char \u8:  not set up for use with LaTeX.
…
Try running pandoc with --pdf-engine=xelatex.

which may be avoided by adding --pdf-engine=xelatex to the command line.

Any suggestions how to fix this?

In the same run, I also get this error:

(node:45417) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: 43
(node:45417) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection. This error originated either by throwing inside of an async function without a catch block, or by rejecting a promise which was not handled with .catch(). (rejection id: 1)

As a workaround I'm using GitHub's compare feature, rendering a rich diff of the Markdown, selecting the diff region in Google Chrome, and saving the selection to a PDF.

Thanks for the fix, David!
