Hello! I was attempting to use the ACM journal output format for my project but unfortunately I can't seem to get it to work. I have ever tried rendering the basic example and it fails.

Environment: quarto: 1.3.191 r-tinytex: 0.44 texlive-core: 20210325 ubuntu: 22.04

Reproduction:

quarto use template quarto-journals/acm
## Directory name: test

cd test
quarto render test.qmd --to acm-pdf

Error:

compilation failed- missing packages (automatic installed disabled)
LaTeX Error: File `acmart.cls' not found.

Type X to quit or <RETURN> to proceed,
or enter new name. (Default extension: cls)

Enter file name: 
! Emergency stop.
<read *> 

l.2 ^^M

Any help would be great appreciated.

It looks like the acmart package is missing from LaTeX on your machine. You should be able to install it using the command:

tlmgr install acmart

We generally recommend using TinyTeX (quarto install tinytex) to help make package installation easier as it will automatically download missing packages, but if you already have a TeX installation that you're happy with, the above should work.

Hth!

Wow. Thanks for telling me about quarto install tinytex. I have never come across that in the documentation which is why I had weird tinytex and texlive versions. That solved the issue!

@evamaxfield If something doesn't work with this format, please don't hesitate to contact me directly at carlos.scheidegger@posit.co - we want to make sure that this is a great experience for folks considering quarto to venues like CHI, etc. Thanks!
