This is a duplicate of https://github.com/rstudio/rticles/issues/493 - see if your issue is the same maybe.

Are you using TinyTeX or TeX Live ? Usually with these, tinytex R package will try to installed the mising

About why you get that: LaTeX is like R and works with packages. orcidlink must be installed from CTAN. If you have one of the above, tinytex::tlmgr_install("orcidlink") should do it, but it should have been done automatically, so maybe there is an issue with your LaTeX distribution.

Hope it helps

Thanks @cderv , indeed there was a problem with my LaTeX distribution. TeXLive was installed, along with the orcidilnk package, but R couldn't find it despite having TinyTeX installed. Reinstalling TinyTeX with tinytex::install_tinytex() and installing orcidlink as per your suggestion fixed the problem.

[cderv]

TeXLive was installed, along with the orcidilnk package, but R couldn't find it despite having TinyTeX installed.

Odd, tinytex should have found your TeX Live installation if it was a good one with tlmgr in PATH.

Anyway, glad it is working now.
