In the YAML header of a pandoc's markdown file, it's possible to write an abstract. I wonder if there is a way to change the word "abstract" in the rendered document to something else like either word "summary" or equivalent in another language.
If not, what alternatives could be suggested? I'm using R Markdown.
p.s. My question is related to this comment.
If your main interest is in localization of your document, you can add an lang meta value to your document. E.g., setting lang: lt will give "Santrauka" instead of "Abstract" in the produced PDF.
