Export pdf (styled) problem. Ubuntu 20.04 #370

Closed cafernandezlo closed 1 week ago

preview is ok but exporting a PDF (styled) is not working properly, seems like some of the chucks (baash) are badly formed. I tried cloning the repo, with snap but the same problem arise and also have problems to install the deb package as mentioned in previous issues.

Tried to run in debug mode but didn't see any useful information. I'm on Ubuntu 20.10 using a repo clone (commit 1ed83780fa011badca3c22f28e34475eb0d36564).

Console only outputs the following:

mike@bedroom:~/Documents$ remarkable --verbose
DEBUG:remarkable: set_up_logging() 'logging enabled'
--verbose does not exist, creating it

Neither PDF output (plain or styled) works, but HTML does.

As a temporary workaround, you can export to HTML, then use the wkhtmltopdf tool to convert to PDF:

$ wkhtmltopdf --enable-local-file-access my-document.html my-document.pdf

As you can see in the image below, it's not perfect. But at least it's something:

Poking around, I've just noticed Remarkable is using pdfkit version 0.4.1, while the latest is 0.6.1

Just a thought.
