I'm trying to generate a PDF from a basic HTML page using pandoc, but it seems like a table (or a few) are preventing the PDF from being generated.

This is the page I'm trying to convert to a PDF document. Here is the command that I'm running:

$ pandoc --verbose --from=html --to=pdf --output=ch3.pdf --pdf-engine=xelatex -V geometry:margin=1.5in https://bob.cs.sonoma.edu/IntroCompOrg-x64/bookch3.html

And here is the end of the output generated:

Error producing PDF.
! Argument of \LT@nofcols has an extra }.
<inserted text> 
                \par 
l.2588 \begin{longtable}[]{@{}r@{}}

I was able to save it as a markdown document, and then convert that markdown document to PDF, but the tables become a block of incomprehensible markdown text. I suspect that something is going wrong in the translation of the table elements, but I don't know anything about latex so I can't say for sure, and have no idea where to start debugging. Any help is appreciated, thank you!
