Usage

To apply the filter, use the following option with pandoc:

$ pandoc --filter pandoc-latex-margin

Explanation

In the metadata block, specific set of classes can be defined to specify the margins for div and codeblock elements.

The metadata block add information using the pandoc-latex-margin entry by a list of definitions:

pandoc-latex-margin:
  - classes: [myclass]
    left: 1cm
    right: 2cm

The metadata block above is used to set the margins:

• to 1cm for left margin on div and codeblock elements that have the myclass class;

• to 2cm for right margin on div and codeblock elements that have the myclass class;

The margins specified must be expressed in LaTeX syntax.

It’s also possible to set a specific LaTeX margin using the latex-left-margin and latex-right-margin attributes.
