Markdown for Scientific Publications

This provides an example for use of Markdown for scientific publications.

General Workflow

Markdown files are translated to LaTeX using Pandoc, which is more flexible than direct compilation to PDF files (and makes finding problems easier). The resulting .tex files are then typeset using latexmk. Contained citations in BibTex format are also managed by Pandoc and work output-independent.

Make sure to fetch the most recent Pandoc. Pandoc is under very active development, and depending on your distribution the packaged versions might be horribly outdated.

Beamer Presentations

presentation.md contains an example presentation (also containing some further explanation). presentation-header.tex is included in the preamble, presentation-toc.tex contains the table of contents and includes Creative Commons logo.

Generate the presentation by running make presentation (given you have make setup on your computer, otherwise run the contained commands manually).

Printed Reports

report.md is an example for a printed report using the article class. report-header.tex again is included in the preamble. report-footer.tex is added after the actual contents, and here includes the Creative Commons logo.

Generate the report by running make report (given you have make setup on your computer, otherwise run the contained commands manually).
