Never again in outer par mode: making next-generation PDFs with Quarto & typst
summary
Quarto 1.4 adds Typst support as an alternative PDF engine to LaTeX, promising clearer error messages and faster builds; demos show rendering of academic posters, scoped font handling with automatic fallback to Noto Arabic, and a two-column newsletter layout that matches visual designer control. The system reports precise compile errors (not vague “not in outer par mode”), measures text to compute line widths, and generates working PDFs today while LaTeX support remains available.
