I want to convert a document written in Markdown to PDF via TeX, so that it looks like I wrote it in TeX. The problem is that I don't want the page number. What do I write in the terminal in order to avoid it?

  • You can always convert to LaTeX first, alter it to fit your needs, and then typeset with pdflatex; I'm not positive there is an option for this.

Just use your template as described here:



PDF with numbered sections and a custom LaTeX header:



pandoc -N                                         
--template=mytemplate.tex
--variable mainfont=Georgia
--variable sansfont=Arial
--variable monofont="Bitstream Vera Sans Mono"
--variable fontsize=12pt
--variable version=1.10
README
--latex-engine=xelatex
--toc
-o example14.pdf

    I'd like to upvote and downvote your answer at the same time, for the following reasons: Writing a template requires Latex knowledge and it might take a day or two to get a good template together, if you don't have the Latex knowledge. It's good that you mention templates. However, the website you linked does neither explain nor describe how to write such a template, it only tells you how to use one - that's not really helpful. I myself needed multiple attempts on an separate days to create a template. It would be great if there was a tutorial about templates for Pandoc users.

You can look at the default (builtin) LaTeX template Pandoc is using:



pandoc -D latex | less


You'll discover that this template uses a variable named $pagestyle$. Searchengining for 'latex pagestyle' led me to conclude that a pagestyle named 'empty' may achieve what you want. So I ran this command:



pandoc               
-f html
-o fsf.pdf
-V pagestyle=empty
https://www.fsf.org


creates a PDF without page numbering... so I thought! When testing however, I found that the first page unfortunately still had a "1" at its bottom! The rest didn't...



So the next stage would be the following:





  1. Save the default LaTeX template of Pandoc into a file:



    pandoc -D latex > latex-pandoc.template


  2. Use your editor of choice to hack the template so the first page looses its page numbering too. (I do not currently know how this can be achieved in LaTeX -- would have to google it myself....) The result is latex-hacked.template.



  3. Now apply this template when creating your output:



    pandoc -f html             
    -o fsf.pdf
    -V pagestyle=empty
    --template=latex-hacked.template
    https://www.fsf.org





(Maybe there is another choice of pagestyle which avoids the first page numbering? Maybe it is a bug in the definition of the empty pagestyle in LaTeX? I'm sure one of the friendly members of the TeXExchange community will soon chime in and improve my answer if I'm wrong...)

Based off the answer here, you can disable pagenumbering simply by inserting the following LaTeX command at the beginning of your document, or in the YAML front-matter:



pagenumbering{gobble}
