Abstract: Stata’s new -dyndoc- and its sister commands provide a rich set of tools for re-imagining document writing. An example of this is a document translator, -stmd- which converts dynamic documents written with plain Markdown tags to Stata’s dyndoc format. This allows the user to write documents in the simple, uncluttered Markdown style used with other programming languages and on websites, and still use many of dyndoc’s features: executing code and embedding graphics links.
