This means that with a manageable number of markup syntax, you can mark parts of the text as headings, as quotations, set them in bold or italics and add images.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The resulting documents are basically just text. This means that, if you have only worked with Word so far, you have to rethink your workflow a bit because the appearance of the end product is separate from the writing process. (Personally, I think this is a good thing).  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Typical Markdown syntax looks like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>\n#   1st Level Heading\n##  2nd Level Heading\n### 3rd Level Heading\n\n* Un-ordered List\n\n1.

For example, between the end of the text, the list of figures and the list of sources. This can be achieved by inserting the command \u2026  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>\\pagebreak<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p><code>\\pagebreak<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For this LaTeX command, I\u2019ve also created a <a href=\"https:\/\/gitlab.kit.edu\/uhrhr\/zettlr-ressourcen\/-\/tree\/main\/Assets\/Snippets?ref_type=heads\">snippet<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 id=\"pdf-settings\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">PDF Settings<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>The appearance of the PDF, e.g. the width of the margins, or headings with or without numbering and other details are defined via the export configuration file. I will only touch the bare bones of those, as the basic settings supplied by Zettlr are usually sufficient. But you\u2019ll find them in the \u201cAsset Manager\u201d, too, like the \u201cSnippets\u201d and are located in the \u201cExporting\u201d tab.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To export as PDF, search for the entry with the added note \u201cMarkdown \u2192 PDF\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"customize-some-pdf-export-settings\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Customize Some PDF Export Settings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"export-with-table-of-contents\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Export With Table of Contents<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In most cases, the basic settings are completely sufficient. However, if you want to include a table of contents, for example, you must copy the standard configuration file to a new file in the Zettlr asset manager and add the line \u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><code>toc: false # Include a table of contents?<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2026 change to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><code>toc: true # Include a table of contents?<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, have a look at the line directly following. It defines which heading levels are displayed in the table of contents.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, in Markdown, the number of \u201c<code>#<\/code>\u201d indicates the level of the heading. The line:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><code>toc-depth: 2 # 2 means to only include headings level 1 and 2 in the ToC<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>includes the headings of the first and second level, i.e:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>#  1st Level Heading\n## 2nd Level Heading<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to display 3 levels in the table of contents, change the <code>2<\/code> to <code>3<\/code>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><code>toc-depth: 3 # 2 means to only include headings level 1 and 2 in the ToC<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The following headings are now included: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>#   1st Level Heading\n##  2nd Level Heading\n### 3rd Level Heading<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>It is usually better for clarity if only the first two or at most the first three heading levels are displayed in the table of contents. However, this depends on the topic and type of document.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"one-step-further-setting-a-document-class-scrartcl\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">One step further: Setting a document class <code>scrartcl<\/code><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To be able to export Markdown files with Zettlr, you need to install the <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.zettlr.com\/en\/installing-latex\/\">LaTeX environment<\/a> on the computer you want to use for exporting. This installs a whole host of useful extensions at the same time. This includes the package called <em>Koma-Script<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Koma-Script<\/em> offers useful default settings for academic texts. Just adding the lines to \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>variables:\n  documentclass: scrartcl<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2026 the configuration file for the PDF export means that all headings are set in a sans-serif font, while the body text continues to use a serif font \u2013 Times New Roman is standard and required by the faculty. Changing the headings to sans-serif, though, makes the document look clean and slightly more modern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of my <a href=\"https:\/\/gitlab.kit.edu\/uhrhr\/zettlr-ressourcen\/-\/tree\/main\/Assets\/Defaults?ref_type=heads\">PDF export configuration examples<\/a> use the <em>Koma-Script<\/em> document type <code>scrartcl<\/code>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 id=\"possible-stumbling-blocks\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Possible Stumbling Blocks<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>In the <em>YAML Frontmatter<\/em> as well as in the export configuration file, line-indentation is not optional.
