The myst-to-tex serializer unconditionally appends a blank line after image nodes, which LaTeX interprets as a paragraph break (\par). This caused inline images to force a new line in the compiled PDF. This change introduces a LaTeX shim that brackets inline images with custom TeX commands (\snapinlineopen and \snapinlineclose). These commands locally redefine \par to be inert, ensuring that the serializer's trailing blank line does not break the flow of text. - Added \snapinlineopen and \snapinlineclose to the LaTeX template - Updated latex-shims plugin to wrap inline image nodes with raw TeX markers - Ensured HTML builds and image caching remain unaffected Co-authored-by: Claude Code <noreply@anthropic.com>
Updated the CI workflow to TeX Live 2026 to match the current CTAN repository. This fixes a build failure caused by the 2025 rollover, specifically renaming `pdfmanagement-testphase` to `pdfmanagement` and `sourceserifpro` to `sourceserif`. Co-authored-by: Claude Code <noreply@anthropic.com>

Fix line breaks appearing after inline images in compiled PDF
Inline images in the compiled PDF were forcing paragraph breaks mid-sentence due to
myst-to-texunconditionally appending a blank line after every image node (which LaTeX interprets as\par). This fix defuses that forced paragraph break for inline images without forking the upstream serializer.Changes
_latex-template/template.tex: Defines two new TeX commands,\snapinlineopenand\snapinlineclose, which bracket inline images in a group where\paris redefined as a no-op.\unskipin the closing command removes stray inter-word glue from the serializer's trailing newline. Real paragraph breaks (serialized after the closing marker) continue to work normally._support/plugins/latex-shims.mjs: Adds a new transform step that walks the AST and wraps inline image nodes with raw TeX siblings (\snapinlineopen{}/\snapinlineclose{}). Nodes are tagged to prevent double-wrapping across multiple PDF export pipelines. HTML builds and image caching are unaffected.Visual Changes
Before this fix, inline color-swatch images would break their surrounding sentence onto a new line. After the fix, they flow inline with the text:
