George,

If you set pandoc's --verbose flag then you get a lot of detailed output, including the wkhtmltopdf command line and the generated HTML (that is passed to wkhtmltopdf).

If you'd be happy to share any or all of this output (or send it to me directly), I'd be happy to take a look and see whether anything obvious is going on.

Cheers,
William

Hi George,

Absolutely. Pandoc supports multiple PDF engines, and both the `-t` and
`--pdf-engine` parameters are taken into account when deciding which
format and which engine should be used. If the `--pdf-engine` parameter
is given, then pandoc uses that engine together with the appropriate
output format; if `-t`/`--to` is given then a engine is picket.

Here's the list of formats and suitable engines:

- latex: pdflatex, lualatex, xelatex, latexmk, tectonic
- html: wkhtmltopdf, weasyprint, pagedjs, prince
- context: context
- ms: pdfroff
- typst: typst

The first engine for each format is the default engine. So by using `-t`
you triggered PDF generation through wkhtmltopdf, which, it appears, is
installed on your system.

My recommendation would be to try one of the alternative engines. If
that doesn't work, please file a bug report in the issue tracker at
