I wanted to use pylatex and tried to generate the example file. I have installed the packages with anaconda (pylatex and latexmk with conda-forge) and having following code:
from pylatex import Document, PageStyle, Head, MiniPage, Foot, LargeText, \
MediumText, LineBreak, simple_page_number
from pylatex.utils import bold
def generate_header():
geometry_options = {"margin": "0.7in"}
doc = Document(geometry_options=geometry_options)
# Add document header
header = PageStyle("header")
# Create left header
with header.create(Head("L")):
header.append("Page date: ")
header.append(LineBreak())
header.append("R3")
# Create center header
with header.create(Head("C")):
header.append("Company")
# Create right header
with header.create(Head("R")):
header.append(simple_page_number())
# Create left footer
with header.create(Foot("L")):
header.append("Left Footer")
# Create center footer
with header.create(Foot("C")):
header.append("Center Footer")
# Create right footer
with header.create(Foot("R")):
header.append("Right Footer")
doc.preamble.append(header)
doc.change_document_style("header")
# Add Heading
with doc.create(MiniPage(align='c')):
doc.append(LargeText(bold("Title")))
doc.append(LineBreak())
doc.append(MediumText(bold("As at:")))
doc.generate_pdf("header", clean_tex=False)
generate_header()
I am getting this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['latexmk', '--pdf', '--interaction=nonstopmode', 'XXX']' returned non-zero exit status 12.
Additionally before the Traceback it says: sh: pdflatex: command not found although I have installed it in the anaconda environment.
The XXX location is pointing to the right anaconda environment so I have no idea what's wrong here.
