Pdf export in jupyter notebook not working

[vigneshwer dhinakaran]

Hi Team,

There are few problems I am facing with the export pdf function.

The PDF is getting generated but,

1. The markdown code is coming as such in the final pdf, the output is not populated in the pdf. ex: HTML output is not coming and html code is what's coming in the pdf format.

2. When the cell length is more than the width of the window (ie it's a big line of code), the pdf generated cuts the code which is not visible in the display.

How do i rectify these PDF export errors?

Thanks

Just encountered these this morning. Some notes:

1. all HTML in Mardown seems to be stripped, even <br>, when going to PDF

2. I had to remove long lines in Markdown tables, else it wouldn't wrap

Hello, I am having the same problem. HTML export is beautiful.  PDF export is a mess.  I compare this to using R markdown in RSTUDIO which generates perfect PDF files.   This is a serious issue with Jupyter.  If we can't export nicely done PDF files, then a key target PDF is unavailable to us.  There must be a solution?  I am surprised there is not more of an uproar from business and academic users on the current PDF export capability..

This is something we certainly want to improve, and with Mike Pacer joining the team to focus on the publication/document aspects of Jupyter, we'll have cycles and expertise available.  It would be very helpful if you could file issues at 

https://github.com/jupyter/nbconvert/issues

with the specific conversion problems you're experiencing.  In particular, if you have equivalent/similar Rmd examples that work well, please post them in the issue.

Same here, @dvigneswher: could I ask you to post these as nbconvert issues?  We really want to improve the capabilities and ease of use of nbconvert as a publication tool, so concrete problems like these that are holding users back are valuable to us.

Cheers,

Hi,

I have faced similar issues as well. Attaching a sample output from RStudio using RMarkdown and Jupyter using R kernel. Added a cell on top with html code to highlight the first problem. Also attached the snapshot of the notebook.

Notice the indentation offset in the Jupyter export to pdf.

[Ismaël Lemhadri]

I am trying to convert a notebook using the R kernel and faces similar trimming issues in the pdf. markdown text appears just fines but code is cut.

Any news on this?

We convert Jupyter to HTML, then print HTML using virtual PDF printer - this works.
