Convert Markdown to PDF via Pandoc with two rendering engines.
md-to-pdf.cjs — Node script that wraps Pandoc.
node (≥ 16)pandoc (≥ 3.0) on PATHlualatex / TeX Live (high-quality typography, slower)wkhtmltopdf (HTML route, faster, less precise)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.
YAML frontmatter is forwarded to Pandoc. Useful keys:
---
title: My Document
author: Your Name
date: 2026-04-28
toc: true
geometry: margin=1in

--highlight-stylemd-to-html → wkhtmltopdf is roughly equivalent to the HTML engine
