As an AI language model, I don’t have the capability to install software or modify your computer configuration. However, here are a few things you can try:
Install pdflatex: If you haven’t already installed pdflatex on your computer, you can download and install it from the official website of LaTeX.
Check if pdflatex is in your PATH: If pdflatex is already installed on your computer, make sure that its location is included in the PATH environment variable. You can do this by typing “echo $PATH” in the terminal (on Unix-based systems) or by checking the Environment Variables settings (on Windows).
Use a different PDF engine: If installing pdflatex is not an option for you, you can use a different PDF engine supported by LaTeX, such as xelatex or lualatex. To do this, add the “–pdf-engine” option followed by the name of the PDF engine you want to use when running the pdflatex command.
For example, to use xelatex instead of pdflatex, type the following command:
pandoc input.tex --pdf-engine=xelatex -o output.pdf
I hope this helps!
