A repository for templates. Geared for Pandoc and Obsidian.

These templates are natively included in the following Obsidian plugins:

• Obsidian Enhancing Export

I wanted an easy way to produce graphically-pleasing academic documents from my Obsidian notes.

Obsidian (+pandoc) is easy to use, can handle LaTeX-style citations, figure references, and export to .tex, .pdf, .bib and so on.

A step-by-step guide is available here: Obsidian Tutorial for Academic Writing

It will guide you through syncing Zotero and Obsidian, setting up Pandoc, and referencing figures and citations.

If you just want to install the templates in your pandoc:

1. Type pandoc --version in the terminal
2. Find the User data directory: e.g. /Users/leo/.local/share/pandoc
3. If the folder above does not exist, create it.
4. Copy the folder of your template(s) of interest in there.

If you need more guidance, look into Section 4 of the Obsidian Tutorial for Academic Writing .

Do you have a Pandoc Template? Open a pull request!

Templates should be added in the following formats:

TemplateName/
├─ example/
│  ├─ TemplateName.md
│  ├─ TemplateName.pdf
│  ├─ TemplateName.png
├─ TemplateName.tex
├─ TemplateName.sty
├─ README
├─ LICENSE

The README file should contain a description of the template.

The example folder should contain the markdown .md file used to generate the folder and the output PDF .pdf file generated.

example.png is a preview of the template, typically the first few pages of the PDF. Use the following ImageMagick command:

convert example.pdf +append -alpha remove -alpha off example.png

You may include additional files such as image (sparingly) and .bib files.

Yes, please open a pull request so we can keep track of the plugins and add you to the list above.
