Use locally installed fonts in the LaTeX Docker container by mounting your fonts directory to /usr/local/share/fonts, e.g.
docker --volume=/usr/share/fonts:/usr/local/share/fonts pandoc/latex …
Should work with XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX PDF engines as well as with the "typst" container.
🆕 pandoc 3.9 🎉🚀
• Official support for wasm (WebAssembly), allowing to run pandoc in the browser,
• the *alerts* extension is now available in the pandoc Markdown flavor,
• support for defaults files using JSON instead of YAML,
• extension of `${.}` vars in the `defaults` field, making it easier to base defaults files on other defaults,
• method to run Lua code with a modified pandoc state,
• and much more
Many thanks to all who contributed!
The default HTML-output generated by pandoc is polyglot HTML, i.e., it's both valid HTML and XML.
The `tidy` utility is a tool that can generate pure HTML; it can also shed a few bytes by omitting optional tags. E.g.
pandoc --to=html -s … | tidy -q -ashtml -omit
I am updating my Pandoc templates for Shun manuscript format to always start a heading level 2 on a new page because that's what agents and publishers want now, and fuck Github for changing the download link to a button, but does anyone know how I can instruct users to download just 1 singular folder into the Pandoc directory folder? At the moment, I am having the user download all files one after the other, but can I download a folder? Or would they need to clone my repo?
Also, does Github have evergreen links? Like links that will download the latest version of whatever template even if I change the name later?
I am on Windows.
Opening #Pandoc XML files to get the placement of the Shun contact info right and yet I still find writing LUA scripts taxing. If any one of you all has a working LUA script I can steal that rounds word counts to the nearest thousand, let me steal from you! I also was super happy to discover many writers *actually* use my templates, after switching to a #Markdown writing flow. I just updated all my templates, by the way! I haven't touched the old Microsoft Word native templates in ages, but the new Pandoc templates does cool things such as automatic headers, a cover page, chapters and titles are in all caps, and all of this without you needing anything extra! https://github.com/rkingett/writertools/archive/refs/heads/main.zip
Updated my Shun Pandoc guide to fix syntax errors and correct some formatting. This is more for those more text based writers such as myself but I do provide some helpful links in there too https://sightlessscribbles.com/posts/shun/ #Pandoc #Guide #Tutorial #
