Looking for a word processor with the power of Markdown

markdowntext-editorword-processor

Basically, I am looking for a word editor (like Word or Pages) that is compatible with Markdown. I want to be able to write in Markdown but with the concept of pages. Their are a lot of Markdown editor but none that handles the concept of pages (I know that Markdown is primary for the web, so I understand why), but I will use Markdown for document that I will need to print, so I need to know, in advance, the number of pages.

Here is what I need:

  1. compatible with Markdown
  2. header : same for every page
  3. footer : same for every page
  4. number of pages and page numbers
  5. automatically numbering headings (you can do it with CSS)
  6. editable stylesheet
  7. live preview
  8. easy to use

Mou can do must of this (items 1, 5, 6, 7, 8). The problems are for header, footer and number of pages and page numbers

Do you know a software that can do what I need ?
