+# Converting various document formats
+
+I was in need of a way to convert markdown documents + images into pdfs and came over the [pandoc](https://pandoc.org/) project which seems to be very powerful.
+
+This is how i used it.
+
+First we need to install some requirements:
+
+```bash
+sudo apt install pandoc texlive-latex-extra
+```
+
+Then i converted my file like this:
+
+```bash
+pandoc --from markdown document.md -o document.pdf -V geometry:margin=1in
+```
+
+The geometry part makes sure that the pdf utilizes a lot more of the documents width.
