 abstract: |
-  This example manuscript is intended to serve as a tutorial and template for authors to use when writing their own AAS Journal articles. The manuscript includes a history of \aastex\ and documents the new features in the previous versions as well as the new features in version 6.2. This manuscript includes many figure and table examples to illustrate these new features.  Information on features not explicitly mentioned in the article can be viewed in the manuscript comments or more extensive online documentation. Authors are welcome replace the text, tables, figures, and bibliography with their own and submit the resulting manuscript to the AAS Journals peer review system.  The first lesson in the tutorial is to remind authors that the AAS Journals, the Astrophysical Journal (ApJ), the Astrophysical Journal Letters (ApJL), and Astronomical Journal (AJ), all have a 250 word limit for the abstract^[Note that manuscripts submitted to the new Research Notes of the American Astronomical Society (RNAAS) do **not** have abstracts.].  If you exceed this length the Editorial office will ask you to shorten it.
+  Markdown provides a straightforward way to create articles and documentation in a form where the underlying text is easily readable, while also facilitating the generation of various other formats. This includes \TeX, HTML, docx, and PDF (via \TeX) files. This article and the associated code describe a template which can be used to write articles in Markdown and use the pandoc software to convert the markdown text into an \aastex-compatible tex file for submission to the AAS Journals. The advantage of this approach is ease of readability for the source files and flexibility in output formats.

 # Introduction {#sec:intro}
 
-\latex\ ^[<http://www.latex-project.org/>] is a document markup language that is particularly well suited for the publication of mathematical and scientific articles [@lamport94].
-\latex\ was written in 1985 by Leslie Lamport who based it on the \TeX\ typesetting language which itself was created by Donald E. Knuth in 1978.
-In 1988 a suite of \latex\ macros were developed to investigate electronic submission and publication of AAS Journal articles [@1989BAAS...21..780H].
-Shortly afterwards, Chris Biemesdefer merged these macros and more into a \latex\ 2.08 style file called \aastex.
-These early \aastex\ versions introduced many common commands and practices that authors take for granted today.
-Substantial revisions were made by Lee Brotzman and Pierre Landau when the package was updated to v4.0.
-AASTeX v5.0, written in 1995 by Arthur Ogawa, upgraded to \latex\ 2e which uses the document class in lieu of a style file.
-Other improvements to version 5 included hypertext support, landscape deluxetables and improved figure support to facilitate electronic submission.
-\aastex\ v5.2 was released in 2005 and introduced additional graphics support plus new mark up to identifier astronomical objects, datasets and facilities.
+## Markdown {#sec:markdown}
 
-In 1996 Maxim Markevitch modified the AAS preprint style file, aaspp4.sty, to closely emulate the very tight, two column style of a typeset Astrophysical Journal article.
-The result was emulateapj.sty.
-A year later Alexey Vikhlinin took over development and maintenance.
-In 2001 he converted emulateapj into a class file in \latex\ 2e and in 2003 Vikhlinin completely rewrote emulateapj based on the APS Journal's RevTEX class.
+The Markdown specification was released by John Gruber in 2004^[<https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/>].
+Markdown was originally intended to specify a plain text format which could be converted to `html` but in which the source could easily be read.
+Since its release Markdown (and its various flavors) have been extended and become widely used, and additional output formats have become supported (Section [@sec:pandoc]).
 
-During this time emulateapj gained growing acceptance in the astronomical community as it filled an author need to obtain an approximate number of manuscript pages prior to submission for cost and length estimates.
-The tighter typeset also had the added advantage of saving paper when printing out hard copies.
+## Pandoc {#sec:pandoc}
 
-Even though author publication charges are no longer based on print pages^[see Section \ref{sec:pubcharge} in the Appendix for more details about how current article costs are calculated.] the emulateapj class file has proven to be extremely popular with AAS Journal authors.
-An informal analysis of submitted \latex\ manuscripts in 2015 revealed that $\sim$ 65\% either called emulateapj or have a commented emulateapj classfile call indicating it was used at some stage of the manuscript construction.
-Clearly authors want to have access to a tightly typeset version of the article when corresponding with co-authors and for preprint submissions.
+`pandoc` is "a universal document converter"^[<https://pandoc.org>], originally written by John MacFarlane^[<http://johnmacfarlane.net/>].
+At present it supports 25 input formats and 47 output formats (including variations of several standards such as markdown).
+Pandoc is written in the Haskell programming language and supports extensions written as filters.
+This template
 
-When planning the next \aastex\ release the popularity of emulateapj played an important roll in the decision to drop the old base code and adopt and modify emulateapj for \aastex\ v6.+ instead.
-The change brings \aastex\ inline with what the majority of authors are already using while still delivering new and improved features.
-\aastex\ v6.0 through v6.2 were written by Amy Hendrickson and released in January 2016 (v6.0), October 2016 (v6.1), and January 2018 (v6.2), respectively.
-Some of the new features in v6.0 included:
+Note that the author can write \TeX into the markdown file and `pandoc` will happily pass it through to the finished product.
+However, this may compromise alternate (non-\TeX) output formats.
+For example, the \aastex `deluxetable` environment can be used, but will not properly render in non-\TeX formats.
+Pandoc filers^[<https://pandoc.org/filters.html>] may be crafted to convert simple `pandoc` tables into `deluxetable`s on the fly, if desired.
 
-1. improved citations for third party data repositories and software,
+## Paper Organization
 
-2. easier construction of matrix figures consisting of multiple encapsulated postscript (EPS) or portable document format (PDF) files,
+We broadly divide this article into demonstrations of how to prepare a manuscript in Markdown such that it generates nearly-submittable \TeX (Section [@sec:prep]).
+This includes how to specify the article style via the YAML header of the markdown file ([@sec:style]).
+We then demonstrate how to include images (Section [Images]), tables (Section [Tables]), and citations ([Citations]).
+We the conclude by discussing some practical considerations for this paper writing process ([@sec:notes]).
 
-3. figure set mark up for large collections of similar figures,
+We remind the reader that this approach can be extended to the templates of other journals by modifying the YAML header in the markdown file and the \TeX template file.
 
-4. color mark up to easily enable/disable revised text highlighting,
+The Markdown file, `pandoc` invocation, and associated filters used to create the \TeX for this document are available at: <https://github.com/privong/papers-in-markdown>.
 
-5. improved url support, and
+# Manuscript Preparation in Markdown {#sec:prep}
 
-6. numerous table options such as the ability to hide columns, column decimal alignment, automatic column math mode and numbering, plus splitting of wide tables.
+## Manuscript styles {#sec:style}
 
-The features in v6.1 were:
+## Images {#sec:images}
 
-1. ORCID support for preprints,
+## Tables {#sec:tables}
 
-2. improved author, affiliation and collaboration mark up,
+This tool will pass \latex tables through pandoc to the chosen \latex parser.
+Thus, any tables which are part of \aastex will work for producing pdfs.
+However, those will not propagate through to other output formats with which pandoc is compatible.
 
-3. reintroduced the old AASTeX v5.2 `\received`, `\revised`, `\accepted`, and `\published` commands plus added the new `\submitjournal` command to document which AAS Journal the manuscript was submitted to, plus
+This is an example of a "simple table"^[<https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#tables>]:
 
-4. new typeset style options.

-The new features in v6.2 are:
+Table: ApJ costs from 1991 to 2013.
 
-1. A new RNAAS style option for Research Note manuscripts,
+## Citations {#sec:citations}
 
-2. Titles no longer put in all caps,
+Citations can be incorporated using the pandoc-citeproc filter^[<https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#citations>].
+These citations take the form of: `[@Astropy2018]` to correspond to [@Astropy2018].
 
-3. No page skip between the title page and article body,
+# Notes on Preparation for Submission {#sec:notes}
 
-4. re-introduce RevTeX's widetext environment for long lines in two column style formats, and
+## Limitations on Internal References
 
-5. upgrade to the `\doi` command.
+Naively `pandoc` does not presently support internal reference to figures or equations and does not support numbered section references.
+However the `pandoc-crossref`^[<https://github.com/lierdakil/pandoc-crossref>] filter adds support for this (and has been used in the preparation of this document).
+Note that `pandoc-crossref` uses the same syntax as `pandoc-citeproc`, the former filter must be invoked before the latter.
+For example the \TeX for this document was generated with:

-Special emphasis is placed on how to use the full potential of \aastex\ v6+.
-The next section describes the different manuscript styles available and how they differ from past releases.
-Section \ref{sec:floats} describes how tables and figures are placed in a \latex\ document.

+## Creating New Filters
 
-# Manuscript styles {#sec:style}
+`pandoc` supports user-written filters.
+We have already seen two filters, `pandoc-citeproc` and `pandoc-crossref`.
+These filters enable customizable processing of documents during conversion and can be written in Haskell, lua, or python^[Using either the `panflute` or `pandocfilters` modules.].
 
-The default style in \aastex\ v6.2 is a tight single column style, e.g.  10
-point font, single spaced.  The single column style is very useful for
-article with wide equations. It is also the easiest to style to work with
-since figures and tables, see Section \ref{sec:floats}, will span the
-entire page, reducing the need for address float sizing.
+With output formats besides \aastex\ in mind, the acknowledgements portion of the document has been delineated in the markdown file as a top-level section.
+However, is desirable to automatically convert this to a `\acknowledgements` macros when creating a \TeX file.
 
-To invoke a two column style similar to the what is produced in
-the published PDF copy use \
-
-\noindent `\documentclass[twocolumn]{aastex62}`. \
-
-\noindent Note that in the two column style figures and tables will only
-span one column unless specifically ordered across both with the "*" flag,
-e.g. \
-
-\noindent`\begin{figure*}` ... `\end{figure*}`, \
-\noindent`\begin{table*}` ... `\end{table*}`, and \
-\noindent`\begin{deluxetable*}` ... `\end{deluxetable*}`. \
-
-\noindent This option is ignored in the onecolumn style.
-
-Some other style options are outlined in the commented sections of this 
-article.  Any combination of style options can be used.
-
-Two style options that are needed to fully use the new revision tracking
-feature, see Section \ref{sec:highlight}, are `linenumbers` which 
-uses the lineno style file to number each article line in the left margin and 
-`trackchanges` which controls the revision and commenting highlight
-output.
-
-There is also a new `modern` option that uses a Daniel
-Foreman-Mackey and David Hogg design to produce stylish, single column
-output that has wider left and right margins. It is designed to have fewer
-words per line to improve reader retention. It also looks better on devices
-with smaller displays such as smart phones.
-
-For a Research Note use the `RNAAS` option which will produce a
-manuscript with no abstract and in the `modern` style.
-
-# Floats {#sec:floats}
-
-Floats are non-text items that generally can not be split over a page.
-They also have captions and can be numbered for reference.  Primarily these
-are figures and tables but authors can define their own. \latex\ tries to
-place a float where indicated in the manuscript but will move it later if
-there is not enough room at that location, hence the term "float".
-
-Authors are encouraged to embed their tables and figures within the text as
-they are mentioned.  Please do not place the figures and text at the end of
-the article as was the old practice.  Editors and the vast majority of
-referees find it much easier to read a manuscript with embedded figures and
-tables.
-
-Depending on the number of floats and the particular amount of text and
-equations present in a manuscript the ultimate location of any specific
-float can be hard to predict prior to compilation. It is recommended that
-authors textbf{not} spend significant time trying to get float placement
-perfect for peer review.  The AAS Journal's publisher has sophisticated
-typesetting software that will produce the optimal layout during
-production.
-
-Note that authors of Research Notes are only allowed one float, either one
-table or one figure.

-\end{deluxetable}
-
-For authors that do want to take the time to optimize the locations of
-their floats there are some techniques that can be used.  The simplest
-solution is to placing a float earlier in the text to get the position
-right but this option will break down if the manuscript is altered, see
-Table \ref{tab:table}.  A better method is to force \latex\ to place a
-float in a general area with the use of the optional `[placement
-specifier]` parameter for figures and tables. This parameter goes after
-`\begin{figure}`, `\begin{table}`, and
-`\begin{deluxetable}`.  The main arguments the specifier takes
-are "h", "t", "b", and "!".  These tell \latex\ to place the float
-\underline{h}ere (or as close as possible to this location as possible), at
-the \underline{t}op of the page, and at the \underline{b}ottom of the page.
-The last argument, "!", tells \latex\ to override its internal method of
-calculating the float position.  A sequence of rules can be created by
-using multiple arguments.  For example, `\begin{figure}[htb!]`
-tells \latex\ to try the current location first, then the top of the page
-and finally the bottom of the page without regard to what it thinks the
-proper position should be.  Many of the tables and figures in this article
-use a placement specifier to set their positions.
-
-Note that the \latex\ `tabular` environment is not a float.  Only
-when a `tabular` is surrounded by `\begin{table}` ...
-`\end{table}` is it a true float and the rules and suggestions
-above apply.
-
-In AASTeX v6.2 all deluxetables are float tables and thus if they are
-longer than a page will spill off the bottom. Long deluxetables should
-begin with the `\startlongtable` command. This initiates a
-longtable environment.  Authors might have to use `\clearpage` to
-isolate a long table or optimally place it within the surrounding text.

-## Tables {#subsec:tables}
-
-Tables can be constructed with \latex's standard table environment or the
-\aastex's deluxetable environment. The deluxetable construct handles long
-tables better but has a larger overhead due to the greater amount of
-defined mark up used set up and manipulate the table structure.  The choice
-of which to use is up to the author.  Examples of both environments are
-used in this manuscript. Table \ref{tab:table} is a simple deluxetable
-example that gives the approximate changes in the subscription costs and
-author publication charges from 1991 to 2013.
-
-Tables longer than 200 data lines and complex tables should only have a
-short example table with the full data set available in the machine
-readable format.  The machine readable table will be available in the HTML
-version of the article with just a short example in the PDF. Authors are
-required to indicate to the reader where the data can be obtained in the
-table comments.  Suggested text is given in the comments of Table
-\ref{tab:mathmode}.  Authors are encouraged to create their own machine
-readable tables using the online tool at
-<http://authortools.aas.org/MRT/upload.html>.
-
-\aastex\ v6 introduces five new table features that are designed to make
-table construction easier and the resulting display better for AAS Journal
-authors.  The items are:
-
-1. Declaring math mode in specific columns,
-
-2. Column decimal alignment, 
-
-3. Automatic column header numbering,
-
-4. Hiding columns, and
-
-5. Splitting wide tables into two or three parts.
-
-Each of these new features are illustrated in following Table examples.
-All five features work with the regular \latex\ tabular environment and in
-\aastex's deluxetable environment.  The examples in this manuscript also
-show where the two process differ.
-
-### Column math mode
-
-Both the \latex\ tabular and \aastex\ deluxetable require an argument to
-define the alignment and number of columns.  The most common values are
-"c", "l" and "r" for \underline{c}enter, \underline{l}eft, and
-\underline{r}ight justification.  If these values are capitalized, e.g.
-"C", "L", or "R", then that specific column will automatically be in math
-mode meaning that \$s are not required.  Note that having embedded dollar
-signs in the table does not affect the output.  The third and forth columns
-of Table \ref{tab:mathmode} shows how this math mode works.
-
-### Decimal alignment
-
-Aligning a column by the decimal point can be difficult with only center,
-left, and right justification options.  It is possible to use phantom calls
-in the data, e.g. `\phn`, to align columns by hand but this can
-be tedious in long or complex tables.  To address this \aastex\ introduces
-the `\decimals` command and a new column justification option,
-"D", to align data in that column on the decimal.  In deluxetable the
-`\decimals` command is invoked before the `\startdata`
-call but can be anywhere in \latex's tabular environment.  
-
-Two other important thing to note when using decimal alignment is that each
-decimal column \textit{must end with a space before the ampersand}, e.g.
-"\&\&" is not allowed.  Empty decimal columns are indicated with a decimal,
-e.g. ".".  Do not use deluxetable's `\nodata` command.
-
-The "D" alignment token works by splitting the column into two parts on the
-decimal.  While this is invisible to the user one must be aware of how it
-works so that the headers are accounted for correctly.  All decimal column
-headers need to span two columns to get the alignment correct. This can be
-done with a multicolumn call, e.g `\multicolumn2c{}` or
-`\multicolumn{2}{c}{}`, or use the new
-`\twocolhead{}` command in deluxetable.  Since \latex\ is
-splitting these columns into two it is important to get the table width
-right so that they appear joined on the page.  You may have to run the
-\latex\ compiler twice to get it right.  Table \ref{tab:decimal}
-illustrates how decimal alignment works in the tabular environment with a
-$\pm$ symbol embedded between the last two columns.

-\subsubsection{Automatic column header numbering} \label{subsubsec:autonumber}
-
-The command `\colnumbers` can be included to automatically number
-each column as the last row in the header. Per the AAS Journal table format
-standards, each column index numbers will be surrounded by parentheses. In
-a \latex\ tabular environment the `\colnumbers` should be invoked
-at the location where the author wants the numbers to appear, e.g. after
-the last line of specified table header rows. In deluxetable this command
-has to come before `\startdata`.  `\colnumbers` will
-not increment for columns hidden by the "h" command, see Section
-\ref{subsubsec:hide}.  Table \ref{tab:table} uses this command to
-automatically generate column index numbers.
-
-Note that when using decimal alignment in a table the command 
-`\decimalcolnumbers` must be used instead of 
-`\colnumbers` and `\decimals`. Table \ref{tab:messier}
-illustrates this specific functionality.
-
-### Hiding columns {#subsubsec:hide}
-
-Entire columns can be \underline{h}idden from display simply by changing
-the specified column identifier to "h".  In the \latex\ tabular environment
-this column identifier conceals the entire column including the header
-columns.   In \aastex's deluxetables the header row is specifically
-declared with the `\tablehead` call and each header column is
-marked with `\colhead` call.  In order to make a specific header
-disappear with the "h" column identifier in deluxetable use 
-`\nocolhead` instead to suppress that particular column header.
-
-Authors can use this option in many different ways.  Since column data can
-be easily suppressed authors can include extra information and hid it
-based on the comments of co-authors or referees.  For wide tables that will
-have a machine readable version, authors could put all the information in
-the \latex\ table but use this option to hid as many columns as needed until
-it fits on a page. This concealed column table would serve as the
-example table for the full machine readable version.  Regardless of how
-columns are obscured, authors are responsible for removing any unneeded
-column data or alerting the editorial office about how to treat these
-columns during production for the final typeset article.
-
-Table \ref{tab:messier} provides some basic information about the first ten
-Messier Objects and illustrates how many of these new features can be used
-together.  It has automatic column numbering, decimal alignment of the
-distances, and one concealed column.  The Common name column
-is the third in the \latex\ deluxetable but does not appear when the article
-is compiled. This hidden column can be shown simply by changing the "h" in
-the column identifier preamble to another valid value.  This table also
-uses `\tablenum` to renumber the table because a \latex\ tabular
-table was inserted before it.

-\subsubsection{Splitting a table into multiple horizontal components}
-
-Since the AAS Journals are now all electronic with no print version there is
-no reason why tables can not be as wide as authors need them to be.
-However, there are some artificial limitations based on the width of a
-print page.  The old way around this limitation was to rotate into 
-landscape mode and use the smallest available table font
-sizes, e.g. `\tablewidth`, to get the table to fit.
-Unfortunately, this was not alway enough but now along with the hide column
-option outlined in Section \ref{subsubsec:hide} there is a new way to break
-a table into two or three components so that it flows down a page by
-invoking a new table type, splittabular or splitdeluxetable. Within these
-tables a new "B" column separator is introduced.  Much like the vertical
-bar option, "$\vert$", that produces a vertical table lines, e.g. Table
-\ref{tab:table}, the new "B" separator indicates where to \underline{B}reak
-a table.  Up to two "B"s may be included.
-
-Table 5 % \ref{tab:deluxesplit} this freaks it out when it is used!
-shows how to split a wide deluxetable into three parts with
-the `\splitdeluxetable` command.  The `\colnumbers`
-option is on to show how the automatic column numbering carries through the
-second table component, see Section \ref{subsubsec:autonumber}.
-
-The last example, Table \ref{tab:tablesplit}, shows how to split the same
-table but with a regular \latex\ tabular call and into two parts. Decimal
-alignment is included in the third column and the "Component" column is
-hidden to illustrate the new features working together.
