I ran into this when attempting an offline install:

1. Install atom
2. Copy this repository into the packages directory, so that e.g. C:\Users\[name]\.atom\packages\markdown-pdf\README.md exists.
3. Open a markdown file in atom and try packages > markdown to pdf > convert

Same. I guess it's never getting fixed by the author?
