Underscore in title doesn't get properly escaped for pdflatex build target, causing formatting errors

Open VolkerH opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Describe the bug

context

When I build a book using builder pdflatex, and the book title contains and underscore _ character, it appears that the underscore character doesn't get properly escaped and is interpreted by LaTeX as an indication that the next character is a subscript.

Here is a cropped screenshot from a book called Using redactedprocess_client showing the title page. This formatting error is repeated throughout the header of each page.

expectation

The _ is part of the title and should be rendered as an underscore rather then be interpreted as a subscript marker.

Reproduce the bug

  1. Use a tiltle such as Using jupyter_book_somthing
  2. Build the book using --builder pdflatex
