I'm writing an article with papaja package (an RMarkdown variant), which contains some Japanese characters. I would like to write its shorttitle in Japanese as follows:
title : "ここは日本語もOK: You have a Japanese title"
shorttitle : "日本語が書けません: A Japanese short title causes an error"
However, the characters cause a Pandoc's error, even though I write and save my file with UTF-8 encoding: pandoc.exe: Cannot decode byte '\x93': Data.Text.Internal.Encoding.decodeUtf8: Invalid UTF-8 stream Error: pandoc document conversion failed with error 1 Execution halted. At this stage, neither tex file nor PDF was produced.
Nevertheless, when I removed the CJK characters from the short title and included other CJK ones in the main text as below, I was able to get both tex and PDF file.
title : "ここは日本語もOK: You have a Japanese title"
shorttitle : "A Japanese short title causes an error"
Then, how can I fix the problem? Or, at least, where is the cause of the promblem?
MWE
