adding a space to notebook title breaks conversion to pdf

[clancia]

Hi there,

not sure if it qualifies as an issue.
I've just noticed that if the notebook title contains a space, then

jupyter nbconvert --to pdf note\ book.ipnb

fails if the notebook contains image output.

The error given by xelatex is

! Missing $ inserted.
<inserted text> 
                $

The issue is not present with Markdown-embedded images, but only with output images (e.g. generated by matplotlib.pyplot).

Please note that exporting to pdf via File > Download as > PDF via LaTeX works fine. Perhaps this is because spaces are replaced by +'s?
Anyway, a very simple solution is to avoid spaces in the notebook name and use a template for having a nicely formatted title when exporting to pdf.

Jupyter v. 4.3.0
Python 3.6.2 :: Anaconda custom (x86_64)
macOS 10.12.6

If you go to tex directly and then convert it does this work?

I am also observing this issue with jupyter-core 4.3.0. Running:

jupyter-nbconvert --to pdf Notebook\ With\ Spaces.ipynb

produces a truncated, single-page pdf whereas File > Download as > PDF via LaTeX produces the correct (six-page) pdf.

If you go to tex directly and then convert it does this work?

Yes, this workflow seems to produce the same output as the browser export:

jupyter-nbconvert --to latex Notebook\ With\ Spaces.ipynb
pdflatex Notebook\ With\ Spaces.tex

Seems to be xelatex related, as far as I understand

jupyter nbconvert --to latex note\ book.ipynb
xelatex note\ book.ipynb

throws the same error as jupyter nbconvert --to pdf note\ book.ipynb

this is related to spaces in the filename when calling the \adjustimage command.

Work perfectly for me if we enclose the file name in double quotes

jupyter nbconvert --to pdf --TemplateExporter.exclude_input=True "Note book with spaces.ipynb"
