Error: 'Could not find data file templates\eisvogel.latex' when using Pandoc command

Error: 'Could not find data file templates\eisvogel.latex' when using Pandoc command

I encountered the error 'Could not find data file templates\eisvogel.latex' when running the following Pandoc command:

pandoc report.md -o report.pdf --from markdown --template=eisvogel --listings Despite creating a

.pandoc

directory in my home repository and adding the templates directory with

eisvogel.latex

, the error persists. How can I resolve this issue?

To resolve the issue, follow these steps:

  1. Install Pandoc:

  2. Download the latest Pandoc binary for Linux from the official Pandoc download page.

  3. Select the .deb file suitable for Debian/Ubuntu systems if you are using Windows 11, Ubuntu, or WSL.

  4. Determine your system architecture by running the command uname -m in your terminal.

  5. If the output is x86_64, your system uses the amd64 architecture.

  6. If the output is aarch64, your system uses the arm64 architecture. Download the corresponding file.

  7. Navigate to the directory where the .deb file is downloaded using the terminal:

cd /mnt/c/Users/<your_username>/Downloads Install the downloaded Pandoc package with the dpkg command:

sudo dpkg -i pandoc-3.1.11-1-.deb

Replace with either amd64 or arm64, depending on your system's architecture. Resolve any dependency issues by running: sudo apt-get install -f Setup Pandoc Templates:

Create a directory for Pandoc templates: sudo mkdir -p /home/<your_username>/.pandoc/templates/ Note: Replace <your_username> with your actual username. Move the eisvogel.latex file to the templates directory: mv /home/<your_username>/Downloads/eisvogel.latex /home/<your_username>/.pandoc/templates/ This command moves the eisvogel.latex file to the templates folder. Generate PDF using Pandoc:

"Copy the" content of the eisvogel.latex file from GitHub. Execute the following command to convert a Markdown file (Reports.md) to PDF using the eisvogel template:

pandoc /path/to/Reports.md -o report.pdf --from markdown --template=/home/<your_username>/.pandoc/templates/eisvogel.latex --listings
Replace /path/to/Reports.md with the actual path to your Markdown file and ensure the correct path to the eisvogel.latex template is provided.
By following these steps, you should be able to successfully generate a PDF report using Pandoc with the specified template
