.TH MARKDOWN2PDF 1 "November 21, 2006" Pandoc "User Manuals"
.SH NAME
markdown2pdf \- converts markdown-formatted text to PDF, using pdflatex
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBmarkdown2pdf\fR [\fIoptions\fR] [\fB\-o\fR \fIoutput-file\fR]
[\fIinput-file\fR]... [\fB\-\-\fR] [\fIpandoc\-opts\fR]
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBmarkdown2pdf\fR converts \fIinput\-file\fR (or text from STDIN) from
markdown\-formatted plain text to PDF, using \fBpdflatex\fR. If no output
filename is specified, the name of the output file is derived from the
input file; thus, for example, if the input file is \fIhello.txt\fR,
the output file will be \fIhello.pdf\fR. If the input is read from STDIN
and no output filename is specified, the output file will be named
\fIstdin.pdf\fR. If multiple input files are specified, they will be
concatenated before conversion, and the name of the output file will be
derived from the first input file.
.PP
\fBmarkdown2pdf\fR is a wrapper for \fBpandoc\fR.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.B \-h

.TP
.I pandoc\-opts
Any options appearing after \fIinput\-file\fR... on the command line
will be passed directly to \fBpandoc\fR. If no \fIinput-file\fR
is specified, these options must be preceded by ` \fB\-\-\fR '.
(In other cases, ` \fB\-\-\fR ' is optional.) See \fBpandoc\fR(1)
for a list of options that may be used. Example:
.IP
markdown2pdf input.txt \-\- \-\-custom\-header=letterhead.tex
