[R-pkg-devel] [External] R package submission fails due to using LaTeX functions that have not been implemented for building pdfs (not due to mathjaxr)

[Marc Scherstjanoi]

Thank you for your answers.
Putting \if{html}{\eqn{}} before \mjeqn{}{} works!
Kind regards,
Marc

That doesn't seem to work for me (or I am not following this suggestion properly). But putting \if{html}{\eqn{}} before \mjeqn{}{} does. A bit of a hackish solution, but if it works, it works.

Not sure why \mjeqn{}{} at the beginning of a paragraph actually leads to a line break, but it's yet again one of these quirks that is good to document.

Best,
Wolfgang
