First, and most importantly, specify graphics: true if you want a logo. The last items are there if you want to add a logo to the top right of your memo. Again, the default is that there is no such title that says “MEMORANDUM.” If you do not want this, comment it out, omit it ouright, or substitute “false” for “true” in that field.

By default, my template does not have a centered title that says “MEMORANDUM.” If you want that, specify memorandum: as a field and put “true” as a value. The next few items concern some optional items. These fields are not required for the template to execute, but, in the absence of these fields, why are you writing a memo? The subject: field will be the title of the memo and the date: field will be, well, the date. The from: field will be the name of the author and the to: field, very “reportedly” in this context, will be the recipient of the memo. There YAML items after the artificial space I introduced for clarity contain the meat of the template and are patterned off (but do not require) the texMemo LaTeX class. The only thing worth nothing is the template: field should point to wherever you’re hosting my memo template. Ignore everything in the YAML before the space since it’s mostly boilerplate stuff for a LaTeX template in R Markdown.
