Hi Mitchell, thanks so much for sharing the 'vitae' package, its much appreciated and such a great idea. I've been playing around with it but unfortunately can't get the RMarkdown to 'knit' correctly despite my best efforts at de-bugging, updating my version of R etc. All the code 'runs' from the template but it won't knit. The error message is:-

Error: LaTeX failed to compile ModernCV-format.tex. See https://yihui.org/tinytex/r/#debugging for debugging tips.
In addition: Warning messages:
1: In RefManageR::as.BibEntry(.) :
rownames of data.frame not meaningful for creating keys
2: In system2(..., stdout = if (use_file_stdout()) f1 else FALSE, stderr = f2) :
'"pdflatex"' not found
Execution halted

Any help much appreciated, as I'm still an 'R' beginner.

I copied over CV.Rmd file over to a new, empty Rmarkdown file in RStudio. I also saved the publications.bib file into the same folder, but when I try to knit to PDF it gives me the error in the title of this post. How do I define cvparagraph, and are there other similar setups that will likely cause errors? I am on a Windows machine using R4.3.2 and RStudio 2023.09.1. Thank you for your help.

I wish I had some line spaces between award, scholarships, and competitions, however, \newlines doesn't seem to work here. Can you add that function into this package, or is there an alternative way?

Hi Mitchell,
Thanks for this terrifying package. I just have one issue in my mind that I could not find the answer on web about this. So, basically I want a pdf output instead a html after I prepare my Rmd file. In this regard, I prefer to use vitae::markdowncv template. After a bit search on the web, I found some information on how to change it to pdf like adding this
output:
vitae::markdowncv:
theme: kjhealy
latex_engine: pdflatex

but it just does not work. So is there anything that you can suggest to change something on the YAML so that I can have a pdf output?

I have the following code:

tribble(
  ~ degree, ~ uni, ~ loc, ~ dates, ~ details,
  "MEng Chemical Engineering", "My uni", "London, United Kingdom", "Sept. 2019 - Present", 
  list("Relevant modules: Data Mining & Analysis , Mathematical Modelling & Analysis I and II, and Stochastic Uncertainty & Analysis ."
    ),
  "A Levels and GCSEs", "My secondary", "London, United Kingdom", "Sept. 2012 - Jun. 2019",
  list("A levels: Biology (A), Chemistry (A), and Mathematics (A)",
       "GCSEs: 8 A*-B subjects, English Language (8), English Literature (9), Mathematics (9)")
)%>% 
  detailed_entries(degree, dates, uni, loc, details)

When I knit my file I get the following error:

! Missing } inserted.
<inserted text> 
                }
l.129 \end{cvitems}}

When I remove the & symbols the file knits. I have no issue with removing these symbols from the education section of my CV, but one of the companies I have worked for has an ampersand in their name. Is there any way I could include the ampersand symbol in my CV?

I have tried rendering your example. Can't get it to go. I get the following error

! Undefined control sequence.
l.931   \file_get:nnN
                      {unicode-math-table.tex} {} \l__um_mathtable_tl 

I think this may be related to loading unicode-math which can be seen here

Are you aware of anyone else having this issue?
