Consider the following quarto
document:
--- title: "Some title" author: X date: "2022" format: pdf: number-sections: true fontsize: 12 pt papersize: A4 fig-pos: 'H' geometry: "left=2.54cm,right=2.54cm,top=2.54cm,bottom=2.54cm" include-in-header: text: | usepackage[font=small]{caption} usepackage{float} usepackage[table]{xcolor} engine: jupyter jupyter: r-reticulate --- begin{center} begin{tabular}{|c|c|} hline 1 & 2tabularnewline hline cellcolor{blue} 3 & cellcolor{red} 4tabularnewline hline end{tabular} end{center}
I get the following error, when rendering it:
LaTeX Error: Option clash for package xcolor. See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation. Type H <return> for immediate help. ... l.83 KOMAoption {captions}{tableheading}
A solution that works is to add table
to the following line of the tex
file generated by quarto
:
PassOptionsToPackage{dvipsnames,svgnames,x11names}{xcolor}
That is:
PassOptionsToPackage{dvipsnames,svgnames,x11names, table}{xcolor}
My question is: How can I do that from inside the quarto
document instead of hacking the tex
file?

Answer
As explained in this answer on Tex StackExchange, one possible solution could be passing table
as a classoption
and you do not need to declare using xcolor
explicitly since it is used by-default.
