Hi there

I am having problems with pandoc and with citeproc specifically. Not sure if it is to do with Big Sur or not, but the problems are 'recent'.

I get the error "pandoc: : openBinaryFile: does not exist (No such file or directory)" from the processor when I open Marked2 and when I run from the custom processor option

 "/Users/[name]/anaconda3/bin/pandoc file.md --output file.html -f markdown  -t html5 --bibliography /Users/[name]/[file_path]/zotero_bib.json --citeproc"

But if i run the same command from the command line it works fine, rendering the document and adding the citations (both to HTML and to pdf), I've tried using "/usr/local/bin/pandoc". No joy in Marked, but works on the command line.

Not sure what to try next. Grateful for any help or pointers.

   First impression without testing… you don't want the output to go to an HTML file, you want it to go to STDOUT, which I think is accomplished by just leaving the output flag out. However, that doesn't explain the missing file error.

   Usually that error also tells you what file is missing, specifically. Is there any more to the error message?

   This may also be a permissions issue. Are you on the Mac App Store or direct (Paddle) version?

   Thanks,
   Brett
