+## LaTeX Changes ##
+
+LaTeX support is slightly different than in prior versions of MMD. It is
+designed to be a bit more consistent, and easier for basic use.
+
+The previous approach used two types of metadata:
+
+* `latex input` -- this uses the name of a latex file that will be used in a
+`\input{file}` command. This key can be used multiple times (the only
+metadata key that worked this way), and all the basic metadata is written to
+the LaTeX file in order.
+
+* `latex footer` -- this file worked the same way as `latex input`, but was
+inserted at the end of the file
+
+In practice, one typically needs to be able to insert `\input` commands at
+only a few key places in the final document:
+
+1. At the very beginning
+2. After metadata, and before the body of the document
+3. After the body of the document
+
+MMD 6 standardizes the metadata to use 3 new keys:
+
+1. `latex leader` -- this specifies a file that will be used at the very
+beginning of the document.
+
+2. `latex begin` -- this comes after metadata, and before the body of the
+document. This will usually include the `\begin{document}` command, hence the
+name.
+
+3. `latex footer` -- this comes after the body of the document.
+
+You can use these 3 keys to replace the old `latex input` metadata keys, as
+long as you pay attention as to which is which. If you used more than three
+include statements, you may have to combine your latex files to fit into the
+new system.
+
+***In addition***, there is a new shortcut key -- `latex config`. This allows
+you to specify a "document name" that is used to automatically identify the
+corresponding `latex leader`, `latex begin`, and `latex footer` files. For
+example, using `latex config: artice` is the same as using:
+
+ latex leader: mmd6-article-leader
+ latex begin: mmd6-article-begin
+ latex footer: mmd6-article-footer
+
+Using the new system will require migrating your old configuration to the new
+naming convention, but once done I believe it should me much more intuitive to
+use.
+
+The LaTeX support files included with the MMD v6 repository support the use of
+the following `latex config` values by default:
+
+* `article`
+* `tufte-book`
+* `tufte-handout`
+
+**NOTE: You do have to install the MMD support files into the proper location
+**for your system. I would like to make this easier, but haven't found the
+**best configuration yet.
