This is a Pandoc-compatible LaTeX style file for writing the DiGRA conference paper in markdown. You need Pandoc and some LaTeX installation in order to make the templates work.
This uses fontspec for the Arial font, which means you can't use pdflatex as your TeX compiler. Use something like xelatex instead.
Figure 1 is also missing, because it was not part of the original LaTeX template.
If you want a pure LaTeX template, you should use this repository instead.
You must start your markdown-formatted file with a YAML-section, e.g.
---
title: "Article Title"
author:
- name: First Author
affiliation: Institutional Affiliation
bibliography: bibliography.bib
conference: "1^st^ International Joint Conference of DiGRA and FDG"
---
If you wish to anonymize the output, you can set the YAML-variable anonymous to true. That will withhold the author name(s) from the start of the document.
To get the references look right, end the document with
\theendnotes
# Bibliography
\newcounter{paras}
\everypar{%
\stepcounter{paras}%
\ifnum\value{paras}>0
\hangindent=1cm \hangafter=1
\setlength{\parskip}{0pt}
\fi}
These weird commands are necessary to make sure that endnotes are written before the bibliography and the bibliography is formatted properly. See digra.md for a complete example file.
Note that the bibliography uses the complete Chicago format instead of the simpler DiGRA format, because there is no CSL for the DiGRA format.
Convert the paper from markdown to pdf with
pandoc --pdf-engine=xelatex --filter pandoc-citeproc --template=digra.latex digra.md -o digra.pdf
or use the included Makefile if you have make installed.
