XSLT Files
This is where I will store additional XSLT files and scripts that can be used to add additional features to MultiMarkdown.
I welcome submissions of XSLT files, or other demonstrations or utilities that anyone has created and wants to share.
XSLT Files
by Fletcher T. Penney
This file modifies the memoir script to include a few changes that are specific to a certain document. It adds support for an abstract, puts the TOC inside the chapter called “ToC”, changes is so that every other chapter is not numbered (the chapters alternate with excerpts from some research), some chapters have custom formatting (e.g. “Acknowledgments”). Demonstrates that “one-off” XSLT files can be created to customize your formatting more precisely.
Also demonstrates some additional support for natbib citations.

This file builds on xsffms.xslt, and adds support for an optional “Synopsis” or “Abstract” heading at the start of the document.
Other Odds and Ends
by Fletcher T. Penney
This is an example of a file that was styled using MultiMarkdown, the manuscript-novel XSLT, and the manuscript package for LaTeX.
Basically, you write in plain text in your favorite word processor or text editor, export as MultiMarkdown, and convert to a PDF that is “properly” styled for a manuscript submission. Of course, with a couple of changes to the metadata, you could format it yourself for printing as well…. Worth looking at just to see what MultiMarkdown can do! Includes source MMD text file and the final pdf.
PS: The TeX file produced by this process is better typeset using XeLaTeX, rather than LaTeX.

This is an Engine file for TeXShop. It runs latex a total of 5 times, and also runs the glossary commands for both the memoir version and the regular version. Simply place it in Library/TeXShop/Engines and you are good to go! I welcome comments and suggestions on this — I am certain there is room for improvement. You can also use this as the basis of your own shell script if you don’t use TeXShop.
This pdflatex workflow is the same that I use in the MultiMarkdown2PDF drag and drop app — I am open to suggestions on improvements, and will keep the two in sync.

Basically, does the same thing as above, but uses xelatex rather than pdflatex. Keep in mind, the two programs are not identical, and things that work in pdflatex don’t always work in xelatex. But you do gain some very impressive support for native Mac OS X fonts.

A variant of the Bringhurst chapter and page styles for the memoir LaTeX class as described by Peter Wilson. Pretty minimalist page and chapter design.
by Fletcher T. Penney
This is a LaTeX style class designed for use with the Letterhead XSLT for MultiMarkdown. It creates a letter format using memoir, since the regular LaTeX class is quite limited. This way, you can use MMD to format your letters and still use all the other features of MMD. This style and XSLT are designed to be extensible to include a logo, and different fonts (especially when using XeLaTeX). Also includes mmd-envelope.sty designed for formatting envelopes.

This is an example of what can be done with the new letterhead feature of MMD version 2.0.b4. The base version can be used with LaTeX, but if you want to add custom font features using my customized version, you need to use XeLaTeX (Mac OS X only, for the most part). LaTeX gurus can get font changes on regular LaTeX installs, but this was easier for me.

This is an XSLT file to convert a Mellel document into a MultiMarkdown text document.
