1. Groff and pdfmom commands to create pdf files were being halted by a trivial error, a known bug when converting .mom to .pdf so I had the script ignore this error.
2. I replaced the groff command with the more simple `pdfmom`
The `rmakrdown::` portion makes sure that no other functions mask render, and its calling it from the required rmarkdown package, and the addition of the quiet portion isnt redundant with the R -q flag, i tested script and in Vim it reduces how much text and verbose messaging comes from pandoc at the bottom to about 3 lines.
