# How to make Zines with LaTeX # How to Make Zines with LaTeX
The zine was created by converting basic markdown to a PDF using Pandoc/LaTeX. The goal is to document some basics that will hopefully be informative for others who might be interested in also creating nicely-formatted zines from plaintext markdown.

Creating documents in plaintext has a lot of advantages. For one, the files are tiny, making them easy to share, even with very little interent. The content is largely separated from the format, making it easy to search, manipulate, format, and display how you like using whatever tools you want. Markdown can easily be converted to other formats including html, wiki, odt, and pdf. The same markdown file can be converted into a zine, a website, a wiki page, a Powerpoint, or whatever else. Finally, changes to markdown files can be tracked in a git repository (unlike pdfs or Word documents). Creating documents in plaintext has a lot of advantages.
