Output file with APA citations rather than default citation style

Output file with APA citations rather than default citation style

Hello,

I hope I haven't missed something obvious, but I cannot find an answer to 
this so I'm turning to the discussion forum.

Context:  I am doing academic writing with a markdown editor, Sublime Text 
3, and am using Zotero for my citation manager.  I have installed Better 
BibLaTeX into Zotero to generate the appropriate citation keys for my 
writing.  I am using Pandoc to generate a standalone .rft file from my 
Sublime Text .md file.  The .md file contains my citation keys.  All that 
is working fine and the file converts perfectly with all markdown syntax 
and citations.  However, the default citation style for Pandoc seems to be 
Chicago and I need my citations formatted in APA 6th.

Here is my conversion code that I run in Windows command line: pandoc 
Lorem.md --library.bib -s -o New_Lorem.rtf

Question: How do I have Pandoc convert my output file using APA 6th edition 
citations instead of Chicago?

Thanks in advance for any help and apologies in advance if this is an 
obvious solution.

- Mike

Get the CSL file you need from the style repository:
https://www.zotero.org/styles

Then pass this to pandoc using

    --csl name-of-the-apa-file.csl

or put

    csl: name-of-the-apa-file.csl

in your markdown metadata.

PS. I hope this is a typo

You mean, I assume

    pandoc Lorem.md --bibliography library.bib -s -o New_Lorem.rtf

Ah, yes. That was a typo.  The command I've been using is as you wrote it.
