I am having a problem utilizing the answer presented in this question about diagnosing "LaTeX errors when creating PDF version". The solution presented there is to do the following:

Try R CMD Rd2pdf mypackage to create the manual, and possibly also set the --no-clean option to keep the temporary files. This should allow you to debug the LaTeX code triggering the error.

Where should I type in that: cmd or R? There is no Rd2pdf in my latex.

The command R CMD Rd2pdf mypackage should be executed on the shell command line (Command Prompt if windows, terminal if Mac OS, shell if Linux/Unix) when you are in the directory where the root of your package is.

This command starts R and runs a specific set of commands that have been written to do this.
