Mayn journals requiring consecutive line numbering which is not a problem with MS Word, Open Office or LaTeX but with Pages.<\/p>\n

Maybe it is possible to add a new background to PDF? Acrobat can do it (which I would not recommend), there is some crazy script out there<\/a> (that did not work as well as ). My initial solution<\/p>\n

\r\npandoc -s input.rtfd -o output.tex --template=header_template.tex | pdflatex -output-directory=output_directory\r\n<\/pre>\n
with the header_template.tex containing<\/p>\n
\r\n---\r\nheader-includes:\r\n- \\usepackage[left]{lineno}\r\n- \\linenumbers\r\n- \\modulolinenumbers[5]\r\n---\r\n<\/pre>\n
did not work as pandoc cannot read the rather complex rtfd format produced by Pages. Also the next try with rtf2latex2e looked terrible, so I went back to RTF export in Libre Office where I\u00a0 corrected the few Math formulas that were not recognized correctly.<\/p>\n
Another option would have been Google Docs – they introduced line numbering recently which is probably the fastest and easiest way to do that.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n
 <\/p>\n
Whenver it comes to more than one formula, it would be even better to move from Pages to Overleaf<\/a> (online) or Texifier<\/a> (local).<\/p>\n
