When I embed a notebook with some matplotlib figures, and labels in LaTeX, I get the error
ERROR: RangeError: Invalid string length

I found that the problem comes from these lines
ax.set_xlabel('Position $x$')
ax.set_ylabel('Momentum $p_x$')Indeed, if I replace them with
ax.set_xlabel("Position $x$")
ax.set_ylabel("Momentum $p_x$")It works. However, it is not clear why it fails if using the first case.
Steps to reproduce
Just clone the following repository
On the string-length branch.
Actual behavior
Returns the error
Expected behavior
No errors during rendering
