ic-typora-theme

A corporate Infocentric theme for the Typora free inline markdown editor.

Motivation

Because I'm so used to write markdown in my Jira tickets, confluence and README files, I write all my notes, reminders, tutorials, documentation and alike in markdown with Typora.

And it hurts me quite deeply when I have to share a document with a customer and have to rewrite my text in Word or any other text processing software. Also I think it's important to deliver nice and professional-looking corporate documents to our customers or partners.

However, it should be quick and easy to do and Typora, which is one of the rare free, cross-platform and full-featured markdown editors out there, provides a very useful HTML/CSS-based theming engine.

So, here it is: a corporate Infocentric theme make your markdown documents look nice and professional.

Of course, PDF export is supported as well.

Examples

Please have a look in the examples folder for some sample markdown documents.

Note about Heading 1

Please note that the theme assumes you have exactly one Heading 1 at the beginning of your document which is the document's title. The header containing IC logos is applied to this element.

Note about IC corporate font

You must have the Malgun font installed on your system for the theme to be complete. Infocentric employees should have it already installed on their machines. If that's not the case, please contact your Chief Marketing Officer 😋

The Malgun Gothic font family can be found on Microsoft's font library: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/font-list/malgun-gothic
