Mdx-deck: PDF export

Created on 22 Apr 2019 · 7Comments · Source: jxnblk/mdx-deck

Hello.
When I try to export my presentation like:

 mdx-deck-export pdf history.mdx

I have following error:

 ERROR  Failed to compile with 1 errors                                                                                                       20:56:34

 error  in ./node_modules/mdx-deck/index.js

Thanks! Do you have both mdx-deck and @mdx-deck/export installed as development dependencies locally?

I worked around this by manually modifying /node_modules/mdx-deck/index.js with named exports

export * from '@mdx-deck/components'
import * as themes from '@mdx-deck/themes'
import * as Layouts from '@mdx-deck/layouts'

export {
  themes,
  Layouts
}

then mdx-deck-export pdf deck.mdx worked.

Doesn't work for me either, tried @filoxo suggestion but still same error

EDIT: Never mind, it did work. I had a typo :man_facepalming:

This was applicable to v2. Is it still applicable to v3? I haven't been able to test v3 yet.

Adding some example exported decks to the readme is essential. I personally came here and wasn’t at all reassured of the portability of presentations made by this software. Adding “/print” to the demo also only showed the first slide on my ipad.
