problem converting worksheet to pdf

[John Cremona]

I tried to print a Sage worksheet using the Print button withe the
.sagews file open. Sometimes (not always) I get a long error message
after printing the "generate pdf" button. Something about pdflatex
returning a code 256?

Hello John,

yes, sometimes there are errors. Right as I am writing this, I'm trying to figure out more of such edge cases to improve it. A related philosophical question is, if errors should be displayed if there are some or if they should be suppressed.

Despite that, if the error is reproducible, can you make a copy of that file in your project (click on duplicate in files) and then send us the URL link to that file at he...@sagemath.com ? Then I know in detail why it fails.

Yes, thank you, it was helpful.

I never thought of those implicitly assumed latex macros of sagemath. I.e. with this patch they are defined and converting your worksheet should work fine.
