Quarto render pdfs

Just like the word version, sometimes we want to render something other than just html. This is working through specific issues with pdf.

format:
  pdf: default

It was just working for me to use elsevier-pdf: default in my header, but now it’s not working to just use simple pdf. I get the error

compilation failed- no matching packages
LaTeX Error: File `scrartcl.cls' not found.

Consensus seems to be to reinstall tinytex. quarto install tinytex says it’s installed but will update.

That did get it to work. I think somehow I had tinytex, but not the KOMA Script documentclasses Quarto uses by default.
