Use of # header level 1 as notebook title ?

[t-fourcade-isp]

Hi,

In order to have pdf that have proper title, I currently set it manualy in the notebooks metatada but it is a little bit cumbersome and then the notebook doesn't have a proper name when looking at it in jupyter.

IMO, it would be great if it was possible to use markdown cell # header 1 level as title when exporting notebook into latex/pdf. This way both the pdf and jupyter app would like great.

Does anybody know if there is a simple way to do so?

I agree this would be a useful feature.

There is a pandoc argument --shift-heading-level-by=-1 that would seems to fit exactly that need. See this response on an issue raised on pandoc repo. However, I don't know how to pass this argument to nbconvert.

Thank you for the tip, I will look into it.
