Rosetta error

This error seems to arise for those using MacOS Ventura.

Solution: This solution is derived from this webpage, and is also described in this Piazza post.

• Close RStudio.
• Open a “terminal” window on your Mac (you can use the search tool to do this).
• Install “brew” by copying and pasting this in your terminal window:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

• then install “pandoc” by typing this in your terminal window:

brew install pandoc

• if that’s successful, then open RStudio and type this in the command console:

Sys.setenv(RSTUDIO\_PANDOC="/opt/homebrew/bin")

Now you should be able to knit an RMD file to PDF!
