report¶

Template name: report Class file: Standard report class (no third-party file) Citation style: natbib plainnat (default) or biblatex/biber (per-chapter mode) Document structure: No \frontmatter/\mainmatter/\backmatter (the report class lacks them)

Covers¶

Technical reports
Master's theses and shorter dissertations
Multi-chapter documents that do not need the two-sided book structure

YAML setup¶

journal:
    template: report
    # options: 11pt,a4paper   # default; override as needed
bibliography: references.bib

Front-matter content¶

Unlike the book template, the report class has no preliminary-matter commands (\frontmatter etc.). The template still supports:

YAML key	Markdown heading	Emitted as
`dedication: "..."`	(YAML only)	Centered italic dedication page
`preface: "..."`	`# Preface`	`\chapter*{Preface}`
`foreword: "..."`	`# Foreword`	`\chapter*{Foreword}`
`abstract: "..."`	`# Abstract`	`\begin{abstract}...\end{abstract}`
`list_of_figures: true`	(YAML only)	`\listoffigures`
`list_of_tables: true`	(YAML only)	`\listoftables`

A \tableofcontents is always emitted.

Multi-chapter layout¶

Use ![](chapter.md) or [Chapter title](chapter.md){.include} in the body, or declare chapters via the chapters: YAML key. Top-level embeds compile to \include{stem}. See docs/multi-file.md.

Selective recompilation¶

texmark report.md --only chapters/methods.md

Injects \includeonly{methods} — only that chapter is typeset this pass.

Per-chapter bibliographies (biblatex)¶

bibliography_per_chapter: true

See docs/multi-file.md for the full reference.

Custom preamble¶

preamble: macros.tex   # or inline block scalar; see docs/preamble.md
