I'm converting some Markdown files into PDF using Pandoc like this:

pandoc input.md -V geometry:margin=1in -o output.pdf

By default, the font-size is quite small in the pdf. I'd like to make all the fonts bigger (title, sub title, text, etc.). How can I do that?

Add this to your incantation:

-V fontsize=12pt
