md-to-pdf
Convert Markdown to PDF via Pandoc with two rendering engines.
When to Use
- Reports, manuscripts, and printable documentation
- Documents needing high-fidelity typography (LaTeX engine)
- Faster turnaround drafts (HTML/wkhtmltopdf engine)
What's Here
md-to-pdf.cjs — Node script that wraps Pandoc.
External Dependencies
node(≥ 16)pandoc(≥ 3.0) on PATH- One of:
lualatex/ TeX Live (high-quality typography, slower)wkhtmltopdf(HTML route, faster, less precise)
Usage
node md-to-pdf.cjs input.md
node md-to-pdf.cjs input.md --engine lualatex
node md-to-pdf.cjs input.md --engine wkhtmltopdf
node md-to-pdf.cjs input.md --output custom.pdf
The script auto-detects available engines if --engine is omitted, preferring lualatex when present.
Frontmatter Hooks
YAML frontmatter is forwarded to Pandoc. Useful keys:
---
title: My Document
author: Your Name
date: 2026-04-28
toc: true
geometry: margin=1in
---
Notes
- Mermaid diagrams are pre-rendered to PNG and embedded
- Code blocks get syntax highlighting via Pandoc's
--highlight-style - Round-trip from
md-to-html→wkhtmltopdfis roughly equivalent to the HTML engine
