Answer 1

I found a solution. The error happened to me when I install tynitex. So I uninstall it with tynitex::uninstall_tynitex(). After that delete the Html, log and tex generated by Rmarkdown. After that build your Html and should work.

Answer 2

In my case, the error was because I had a lot of accents as part of mi text chuncks (á, é, ñ...). Sometimes these were converted to their ASCII codes (á, é, ú) when the code was saved, and made the job failed when I knitted. I replaced the special characters for their non-accent versions (a, e, n). Was not the final solution for me, but it's a good workaround, the "pandoc document conversion failed with error 1033" went away, and the notebook knitted successfully

Answer 3

In my Case, the error because the project name contains Chinese. The previous name of my project is GAM_广义加性模型. After I change it to GAM and at the same time change the R project file to GAM.Rproj, it works! So I think maybe you can check whether there are non-English characters in the file name.

Answer 4

My code had a "\n" in it. It is a new line symbol for java and it works on R. But fails to knit until it is deleted.
