[FIXED] How to size and position all images in a markdownfile with pandoc/latex?

Issue

i am looking for a way to resize all images in an existing markdown file e.g. i want all pictures to have a max width of 80% of the textblock width and have all the images centered and bordered. How do I do this and is there a way to customize borders, e.g. colors and width of that border?

This is an example of my markdown file:

# section
## subsection
### subsubsection

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting.

| Eigenschaft |             Typ             | Beschreibung                                                 |
| :---------: | :-------------------------: | :----------------------------------------------------------- |
|  `general`  | `object` <br/> *(optional)* | Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. |

using pandoc and this shell script:

pandoc "$1" \
    -f gfm \
    --include-in-header chapter_break.tex \
    --highlight-style pygments\
    -V linkcolor:blue \
    -V geometry:a4paper \
    -V geometry:margin=2cm \
    -V mainfont="Arial" \
    -V monofont="Arial" \
    -o "$2"

and this tex file

\usepackage{sectsty}
\sectionfont{\clearpage}

i get this result

I am looking for a way using pandoc shellscript to get all pictures width scaled down to 80% text width.

Also I am looking for a solution to get the tabled formatted in the right way as its width is not right. But still using the

\usepackage{sectsty}
\sectionfont{\clearpage}

tex file. Thank you alot for your help!

Solution

You can change the default with of the images using \setkeys{Gin}{width=.8\linewidth} and boarders can be added with the floatrow package:

\usepackage{sectsty}
\sectionfont{\clearpage}

\usepackage{floatrow}
\floatsetup[figure]{style=boxed} 

\setkeys{Gin}{width=.8\linewidth}

(please only ask one question per question. You can ask a new question for the unrelated problem about the table)
