A clean **pandoc LaTeX template** to convert your markdown files to PDF or LaTeX. It is designed for lecture notes and exercises with a focus on computer science.

|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
1. Install pandoc from <http://pandoc.org/>. You also need to install [LaTeX](https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Installation#Distributions).
|
|
2. Move the template `eisvogel.latex` to your pandoc templates folder. The location of the templates folder depends on your operating system:
|
|
- Unix, Linux, macOS: `~/.pandoc/templates/`
|
|
- Windows XP: `C:\Documents And Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\pandoc`
|
|
- Windows Vista or later: `C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\pandoc`
|
|
|
|
If there are no folders called `templates` or `pandoc` you need to create them and put the template `eisvogel.latex` inside.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
1. Open the terminal and navigate to the folder where your markdown file is located.
|
|
2. Execute the following command
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pandoc example.md -o example.pdf --from markdown --template eisvogel --listings --latexmathml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
where `example.md` is the markdown file you want to convert to PDF.
|
|
|
|
In order to have nice headers and footers you need to supply metadata to your document. You can do that with a [YAML metadata block](http://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#extension-yaml_metadata_block) at the top of your markdown document (see the [example markdown file](example/example.md)). Your markdown document may look like the following:
|
|
|
|
```markdown
|
|

|
|
title: "The Document Title"

|
author: [Example Author, Another Author]
