Pandoc error generating final stage of interview (document assembly) about docassemble HOT 7 CLOSED

Yes, an error like that should be trapped better! It seems like you are making reference to a graphics file which exists but is not displayable for some reason. If it is a file in a package, it needs to be in the data/static folder in order to be displayable. Or is it a file uploaded by the user?

I think the image inclusion problem might be remedied by writing [FILE firmlogo.jpg], though what you did should have worked -- I will need to test that more thoroughly.

As for the Pandoc problem, I think that's caused by the inclusion of the address block within a Markdown table. Markdown tables are fragile. However, the [BEGIN_TWOCOL] ... [BREAK] ... [END_TWOCOL] construct documented here might be a good alternative.

I believe the image inclusion problem may have been caused by the fact that your package name had hyphens in it. I think if you include hyphens in your package name, Python treats the hyphens as minus signs and tries to do subtraction. I tried taking out the hyphens from the package name and then the image references worked.

Check out this example to see how the [BEGIN_TWOCOL] ... [BREAK] ... [END_TWOCOL] feature can be used and an address block can be incorporated.
I think the inclusion of the address block using the .address_block() method will require the latest version of the software (which is compiling now on Docker Hub) but even with the older version you should be able to construct the address block if you do it one line at a time.

I believe this issue has been addressed, so I am closing it.
