This is documentation on how to convert jupyter notebook to pdf

colab2pdf.md

Install the necessary packages into the virtual machine with:

!apt-get install texlive texlive-xetex texlive-latex-extra pandoc
!pip install pypandoc

Mount your google drive to get access to your ipynb files

from google.colab import drive
drive.mount('/content/drive')

I had to copy the files from the drive to the working directory, because the drive is/was mounted as read only.

!cp drive/My Drive/Colab Notebooks/example.ipynb ./

Then you can run the converter.

!jupyter nbconvert --to PDF "example.ipynb"

Then you can download the file in the left side panel or through running this cell

from google.colab import files
files.download('example.pdf')
