yaml - Changing font size in Pandoc generated PDF document -


i'm trying change font size in pandoc generated pdf document using yaml. settings made in layout.yaml template below;

--- title: "core concepts in mechanics" geometry: margin=3cm fontsize: 20pts output: pdf_document ... 

i call pandoc below

pandoc --latex-engine=pdflatex -s -o coreconceptsinmechanics.pdf coreconceptsinmechanics.md layout.yaml 

the font size not change @ all. rest of settings work. doing wrong?

the yaml metadata block supposed go @ top of markdown file.

the standard latex document classes support 3 different font sizes, 10pt, 11pt , 12pt (note it's not 12pts). if need larger fontsizes have specify different class, e.g.

--- fontsize: 20pt documentclass: extreport ...  # title  doc 

finally, if want in 2 different files, order important afaik, should be:

pandoc -o output.pdf layout.yaml coreconceptsinmechanics.md
