[Tex/LaTex] Multi line titles with pandoc

pandocpreamble

Given the following pandoc preamble:

---
title: Data Cleaning and Featurization to Support \\  Data Mining in the SomethingSomething Dataset 
subtitle:  SomeCsClass  Final Project with A and B Datasets
documentclass: extarticle
author: Stephen Boesch
geometry: "fontsize=11pt left=1.5cm,right=1.5cm,top=2cm,bottom=2cm"
fontsize: 11pt
output:
  rmarkdown::html_document:
    theme: lumen
    fig_caption: yes        
---

Then what can we replace the \\ with to be recognized/supported by pandoc ?

Best Answer

Alternatively (to retain the title in PDF properties), use the following format:

title: |
       Data Cleaning and Featurization to Support \
       Data Mining in the SomethingSomething Dataset

[Tex/LaTex] Pandoc: minimal headers for LaTeX output

First of all, since you seem to use pandoc to generate a .tex-file – which as Gareth commented, needs the additional option -s or --standalone if you want a fully compileable file instead of a snippet that you could \include yourself in another TeX-file – it would be your choice afterwards to run xelatex instead of pdflatex.

However, if you want to obtain a pdf directly (e.g. via pandoc -t somefile.pdf ...), then indeed you can choose xelatex (or lualatex) instead of the default pdflatex via --latex-engine=pdflatex|lualatex|xelatex. Note that in this case, the -s switch is implicitly active and doesn't need to be specified (though it doesn't harm).

(note that in pandoc 2.0 and higher, the command-line argument --latex-engine has changed to --pdf-engine.)
