Hi @ugull1 , thanks for posting the issue. I updated a couple of things in the aggiedown package since we talked today, so I'd be interested to see if you can now install without any issues. I was able to get aggiedown working on both a windows 10 and windows 7 system, with successful install and knitting of the pdf. I used the tinytex package, with the most updated R/RStudio, and I did have to copy the fonts over to my fonts folder.
Please let me know if it works. If it doesn't and it's a different error message, feel free to file another issue...it will help me track down the source of the issue. One other possibility may be a Windows firewall or security option, but if gauchodown worked, then I doubt that is the issue. Good luck!
Hi @ryanpeek
Thankyou for updating the package.
Finally, I was able to install the package successfully on windows 8 too.
Thankyou again for your hardwork putting this great template together.
