Thanks everybody for the help, it is much appreciated!

Using markdown to Latex (memoir) conversion gets me most of the way.

One problem I have that I can't seem to figure out is that when I set \geometry{a5paper} the book is formatted for A5, but the physical paper size still seems to be Letter. How can I fix that?

This is actually a feature of the memoir class.

Thanks Jiho, that'll help when I want more control. In the meantime I found the easiest way is to define the desired page size in the documentclass like

\documentclass[11pt,statementpaper]{memoir}

Thanks again
