Congrats, it's a great pen indeed, I also own one! I do feel that the ink reservoir is way too small though, every time I want to write with it I have to refill it---which is another pain, as the hole that sucks up the ink is placed higher than with other pens like my Lamy 2000.
|
||||
|
||||
If you hold the Lamy at the right angle, it writes even better, but that's part of the problem. I'm a leftie and the Lamy is quite difficult to wield just right! The Capless is also superb as a "sealth" fountain pen. Nobody expects it in a meeting if you suddenly "click out" a nib 😄

A lot of figures are misaligned depending on the left-hand or right-hand side since the caption appears in the margin. This is very irritating since adding or removing text moves them around, breaking the layout. That's fixed by hacking in `\checkoddpage \ifoddpage \forcerectofloat \else \forceversofloat \fi` just after each `\begin{figure}`, see [this GitHub issue](https://github.com/Tufte-LaTeX/tufte-latex/issues/144).
|
||||
|
||||
You probably also want to make use of _short captions_, otherwise the list of figures will be very confusing. The Pandoc filter https://github.com/martisak/pandoc-shortcaption is great for that, and converts
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
![a very very long explanation of an image](image.jpg "the short version")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Into a `\caption[the short version]{a very very long explanation of an image}`. That way, you can simply make use of Markdowns built-in support for _alt_ texts.
|
||||
|
||||
Another problem: how can you produce `\begin{figure*}`---note the star---to create full-width images spanning across the extended margin? By default, you can't. You can do this:

I have no solution for margin figures except for a custom property within `{}`that does more or less the same.

As for tables, Pandoc generates `longtable` blocks instead of regular ones, and it's full of weird crap. Most of the tables I have require special TeX commands anyway, for instance to rotate certain column headers, so I gave up and simply relied on TeX for those blocks instead.

Most of the tables I have require special TeX commands anyway, for instance to rotate certain column headers, so I gave up and simply relied on TeX for those blocks instead. In that case, if Pandoc acts weird and starts translating `\` to `\textbacklash` instead of your TeX command, try [encapsulating the whole block](https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/issues/4473) in a `{=latex}` Markdown code block.
|

|
||||
If you want subtables: do not use the deprecated `subfigure` package which is incompatible with tufte-book! `booktabs` and `subfig` (with `caption=false`) does the trick, see [this stackexchange post](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/87364/problem-with-tufte-book-and-subfigure).
