What the file says
# md-to-latex
Convert Markdown to LaTeX source via Pandoc.
## When to Use
- Academic papers, theses, and journal submissions
- Documents needing fine-grained typesetting control
- Pipelines that further process `.tex` (BibTeX, custom preamble, journal classes)
## What's Here
`md-to-latex.cjs` — Node script that wraps Pandoc and emits standalone `.tex`.
## External Dependencies
- `node` (≥ 16)
- `pandoc` (≥ 3.0) on PATH
- TeX distribution (TeX Live, MiKTeX) only if you compile the output
## Usage
```bash
node md-to-latex.cjs paper.md
node md-to-latex.cjs paper.md --output paper.tex
node md-to-latex.cjs paper.md --bibliography refs.bib --csl ieee.csl
node md-to-latex.cjs paper.md --template custom-template.tex
```
## Frontmatter Hooks
```yaml
---
title: Paper Title
author: Your Name
documentclass: article
classoption: 11pt
bibliography: refs.bib
csl: ieee.csl
---
```
## Notes
- Output is standalone — compiles directly with `pdflatex`/`lualatex`
- Citations in Pandoc syntax (`[@key]`) become `\cite{key}`
- For journal-specific formatting, supply `--template`
Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
