Convert HTML to PDF
html_to_pdf.Rd![[Experimental]](figures/lifecycle-experimental.svg)
This is a helper function for knitting Rmd. Due to technological limitation, the output cannot knit to PDF in Rmd directly. It uses the pagedown::chrome_print() in the backend.
You must first knit to HTML, then you can use this function to covert them to PDF if you wish. I know this is a workaround to the issue,
but the problem is with the latex engine printing unicode character. If you happen to know how to fix it, please let me know.
