For example, instead of typing $ cat example.md | ssh example.com 'pandoc -o example.docx; cat example.docx; rm example.docx' &gt;&gt; example.docx you can type $ pandoc example.md -o example.docx and the script will handle the messy details (well, not all the messy details: you need to make sure that templates and bibliography files and mages and so on are available as needed on the remote server). </pre> David Sanson 2013-05-18T02:21:50 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.pandoc/6437 <pre>Hi, I want to link within a document to any arbitrary position within the same document.

How do people read the digest? Uwe Brauer </pre> Uwe Brauer 2013-05-16T21:32:45 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.pandoc/6432 <pre> Hello I realized that there is another issue. I am not really sure whether the following table is really nested or just not simple since it contains split and merged cells. +-----+-----+-----+ | | | | +-----+-----+-----+ | | | | | +-----+ | | | | | +-----+-----+-----+ | | | +-----+-----------+ which I can for example generate with emacs table.el package, I can even export it to latex as: \begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|} \hline &amp; &amp; \\ \hline &amp; &amp; \\ \cline{2-2} &amp; &amp; \\ \hline &amp; \multicolumn{2}{l|}{} \\ \hline \end{tabular} So the feature proposal is: could pandoc import the above latex construct and export it to markdown or rst. (Or even rtf, but in principle latex2rtf can this also). Uwe Brauer </pre> Uwe Brauer 2013-05-16T21:29:17 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.pandoc/6430 <pre>It seems that the docx writer is not honoring line breaks in cells for multiline tables: ~~~ --------- Foo Bar ---- ---- One A\ B Two --------- ~~~ This works in HTML, LaTeX and PDF at least. -Ryan </pre> Ryan Gray 2013-05-16T18:45:58 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.pandoc/6421 <pre>Hello Ok ok I asked this question already some time ago. (Ah memory) There is a partial solution using a perl script, partial since it leaves nested tables out. But ok better than nothing. Sorry for the noise Uwe Brauer </pre> Uwe Brauer 2013-05-14T20:46:04 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.pandoc/6420 <pre>Hello I have a html document with a table (it is nested) and tried the following commands andoc -f html table.html -t markdown -o dia4.txt andoc -f html table.html -t rst -o dia4.txt I escpected to see something like this +---------------+---------------+--------------------+ | Fruit | Price | Advantages | +===============+===============+====================+ | Bananas | $1.34 | - built-in wrapper | | | | - bright color | +---------------+---------------+--------------------+ | Oranges | $2.10 | - cures scurvy | | | | - tasty | +---------------+---------------+--------------------+ Or similar, but no the table is completely ignored. I generated a short html document containing a simple table and it did not work neither. Is this feature missing, or do I miss something? thanks Uwe Brauer </pre> Uwe Brauer 2013-05-14T20:27:39 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.pandoc/6418 <pre>Hi, The following is shown in the document for creating a numbered list. (&lt; at &gt;good) This is a good example. As (&lt; at &gt;good) illustrates, ... But the second (&lt; at &gt;good) does not generate a hyperlink. Also, I want to manually specify the label instead of using the default number. Could anybody let me know if these two features are available? </pre> Peng Yu 2013-05-14T11:13:40 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.pandoc/6414 <pre>I'm a novice coder and I want to make a script that takes markdown and creates a LaTeX, somewhat like the built-in example_lists, but with a more elegant native-LaTeX-like solution. I'm thinking I want to implement \label and \ref commands, which do better at tracking example numbers, which can be done with the (&lt; at &gt;xyz) syntax that example_lists uses. I also want to implement at least one level of subexamples, which should probably use a new command -- I've got (&lt; at &gt;&lt; at &gt;xyz) in mind. I'm thinking I want to use the LaTeX package ExPex's syntax, meaning I want this... Examples (&lt; at &gt;wah) and (&lt; at &gt;rah) are really cool! to become this: Is this easily achievable? I've been reading up on Haskell and pandoc (I'm new to both), but I'm not at a point where I can do this on my own. Does anyone have any ideas or have suggestions of how to start? </pre> btalx 2013-05-13T20:04:55 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.pandoc/6413 <pre>I'm a novice coder and I want to make a script that takes markdown and creates a LaTeX, somewhat like the built-in example_lists, but with a more elegant native-LaTeX-like solution.

The bash script I am using is: --- pandoc -f markdown -t html5 --standalone --number-sections $1.md -o $1.html pandoc -f markdown -t plain --standalone --number-sections $1.md -o $1.txt pandoc -f markdown -t latex --standalone --number-sections $1.md -o $1.pdf --- The HTML and PDF outputs are fine and feature numbered sections, but there are no numbered sections in the plain text. I think this is by design but would like to know if there is a workaround for getting numbered sections in plain text as well. TIA.

I've followed John's tutorial using pandoc -s report.tex -o report.docx however pandoc is unable to find images, that are located in a subfolder ./figures by giving warning along the lines of pandoc: Could not find image `./figure/...`, skipping... I include images via the figure environment \begin{figure}[H] and I use what I believe to be the current pandoc version of 1.10.0.5. Any hints on how to tell pandoc where to find figures to be included in the output will be much appreciated.

One oddity about this file is that it makes extensive use of the Private Use Area — byte sequences of EE 99 99 aren't uncommon. While Pandoc is quite able to handle text that's been copied from TextEdit to BBEdit and put in Markdown, it's not able to handle these .odt files itself. The problematic file is attached. </pre> bonusfrogs-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w< at >public.gmane.org 2013-05-12T17:28:08 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.pandoc/6400 <pre>I sometimes go on at too much length in footnotes or the footnotes gradually accrete to too much length, so I decided to augment my existing `markdown-lint` suite of checks with a new one, a call to a Pandoc script which checks for footnotes &gt;2300 characters in length (judged by looking at existing footnotes I consider to be close to the acceptable limit). The script seems to work, but came out rather ugly - for some reason, functions which I thought should import without a problem like `def::WriterOptions` refused to be imported so I had to inline them: #! /usr/bin/env runhaskell {-# OPTIONS_GHC -fno-warn-warnings-deprecations #-} -- example usage: $ find ~/wiki/ -name "*.page" -exec runhaskell markdown-footnote-length {} \; -- default: looks for footnotes &gt;2300 characters long (too long on my screen) import System.Environment (getArgs) import Text.Pandoc (bottomUpM, defaultParserState, readMarkdown, writeMarkdown, CiteMethod(Citeproc), HTMLSlideVariant(NoSlides), HTMLMathMethod(PlainMath), Inline(Note), Meta(..), Pandoc(..), WriterOptions(..)) import Control.Monad (void, when) import Text.Pandoc.Highlighting (pygments) main :: IO () main = do (file:_) &lt;- getArgs void (readFile file &gt;&gt;= processLint file) -- 'drop 3' to avoid the near-infinite loop when files start with Hakyll metadata processLint :: FilePath -&gt; String -&gt; IO Pandoc processLint f x = bottomUpM (footNoteCheck f) (readMarkdown defaultParserState (drop 3 x)) footNoteCheck :: FilePath -&gt; Inline -&gt; IO Inline footNoteCheck f x&lt; at &gt;(Note cntnts) = do let md = writeMarkdown def (Pandoc nullMeta cntnts) when (length md &gt; 2300) $ error (f ++ ": " ++ md) return x footNoteCheck _ x = return x nullMeta :: Meta nullMeta = Meta { docTitle = [] , docAuthors = [] , docDate = [] } def :: WriterOptions def = WriterOptions { writerStandalone = False , writerTemplate = "" , writerVariables = [] , writerTabStop = 4 , writerTableOfContents = False , writerSlideVariant = NoSlides , writerIncremental = False , writerHTMLMathMethod = PlainMath , writerIgnoreNotes = False , writerNumberSections = False , writerSectionDivs = False , writerReferenceLinks = False , writerWrapText = True , writerColumns = 72 , writerIdentifierPrefix = "" , writerSourceDirectory = "." , writerUserDataDir = Nothing , writerCiteMethod = Citeproc , writerBiblioFiles = [] , writerHtml5 = False , writerBeamer = False , writerSlideLevel = Nothing , writerChapters = False , writerListings = False , writerHighlight = False , writerSetextHeaders = True , writerTeXLigatures = True , writerEPUBMetadata = "" , writerStrictMarkdown = True , writerLiterateHaskell = False , writerEmailObfuscation = undefined , writerHighlightStyle = pygments , writerXeTeX = False } </pre> Gwern Branwen 2013-05-11T19:13:43 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.pandoc/6391 <pre>Hi everyone, I want to write some custom extensions to pandoc's LaTeX output but cannot quite figure out how to read a markdown file and have markdown-style citations represented in the resulting AST. main = interact ( writeNative def . bottomUp singleCitation . bottomUp multipleCitations . readMarkdown def { readerExtensions = Set.fromList [Ext_citations] }) For input...

Thanks. </pre> Peng Yu 2013-05-10T16:30:44 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.pandoc/6386 <pre>So it appears that whether or not I specify --toc ... a nav.xhtml gets created and inserted into the ePub. It just appears that the difference, is whether it's listed as a linear spine element, or whether it's 'hidden' away. Is there a way to tell pandoc to not even create the nav.xhtml? I'm not wanting it, because I'm building my own manual TOC. And when I take the epub and convert it to a MOBI. The MOBI conversion software is seeing the nav, and even though it's not a linear element, it's injecting it into the output mobi. I can unzip the files and remove it. But that's messy. Would rather just not have the nav.xhtml created, if I didn't specify --toc. Thoughts? / Help? Eli </pre> Eli White 2013-05-10T14:03:08 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.pandoc/6385 <pre> Just wanted to note that when I went to build an offline version of my slides pandoc complained it didn't support https, which is what the default reveal.js slides use for custom fonts at Google. (Many of these styles import other things as well, and it's not reasonable for pandoc to fetch all of those as well...) </pre> Joseph Reagle 2013-05-10T12:57:17 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.pandoc/6379 <pre>Hi, I am new to pandoc. I have a lot of tutorials written in LATEX and I want to convert it into HTML to post it in my blog. So I am looking for an automated tool and I found pandoc. First impression is great. Currently the only problem I am facing is about some Python codes which are part of tutorials. Currently they are written using listings package in latex. And I want to convert them to HTML as some fancy codes, something like this : http://opencvpython.blogspot.in/2013/03/histograms-4-back-projection.html I know in that blog, I am using some javascript to make that code look like what it is, which is taken from CraftyFella's Blog: Syntax Highlighting with Blogger Engine. &lt;http://www.craftyfella.com/2010/01/syntax-highlighting-with-blogger-engine.html&gt;I also saw some interesting formats in pandoc docs which uses pygments, kate etc. So can you suggest me a simple method which make my listings code look like that?
