The Emacs Org-mode format offers to keep “your life in plain text”. It is a very powerful format with many configuration options.
Pandoc supports a decent subset of Org-mode. Due to the complexity, we maintain an extra page that lists the supported features, how they are translated into pandoc's document model, and explains ways to control and extend the conversion process.

Late last week, I dusted off a project that had been abandoned by one of our drive-by volunteers about three years ago.

I was strugglin' a bit getting the dependency restraints updated and re-familiarizing myself with the repo and publishing configurations. I think that's in good shape now & I can mostly focus on document conversion & layout.

Now that I've got more familiarity with #Sphinx and #pandoc than I did three years ago, I looking forward to making some progress this week.

It's been a long time itch to scratch of mine & now I've got some time & motivation. We shall see....

I'm looking for a configurable converter from #LibreOffice Writer .odt files to #Markdown.

Not in the #pandoc style, but with an option to map the paragraph and character #styles of LibreOffice Writer to arbitrary Markdown counterparts. Every unmapped style should simply be dropped, during the conversion.

Does such a converter exist?

Emiliano Heyns authored a filter to create docx and odt documents that have "live" citations, i.e., citations that are linked to a Zotero database:

Better BibTeX for ZoteroMarkdown/Pandoc :: Better BibTeX for ZoteroIn addition to LaTeX, BBT plays very well with pandoc: you can drag and drop citations from Zotero into your markdown documents. you can cite as you write in your favorite editor with varying levels of comfort, mostly depending on how easy (VSCode, Sublime) or hard (looking at you Scrivener) it is to extend your editor. you can even convert your markdown document into a LibreOffice/Word document with actual live Zotero items as if you had entered them into Zotero all along (see below) Use CSL, not bibtex with pandoc Many tutorials on the use of pandoc to generate documents with citations seem to use bibtex as a bibliography format. I would encourage the use of CSL instead. Internally, both Zotero and pandoc-citeproc use CSL citation engines; the two options you have are:

Sure, you can install a huge Vim plugin to help you format Markdown tables. Or, if you're like me and would like to keep your list of plugins short, and have #Pandoc installed anyway (because it rocks), you can simply do

setlocal formatprg=pandoc\ --from\ gfm\ --to\ gfm

in your ftplugin/markdown.vim, and then simply hit

gqip

("format interior of current paragraph") to reformat the messy table you're currently editing.

I finally made it so that my site can be browsed by tag, using a "Next"/"Previous" link at the bottom of each page! 😊

Here's a technical write-up on how I did it, for the curious!
(Note, the explanation is tightly coupled with my homegrown Tup+Pandoc+Lua system, but I guess the Jq exploration part of the article could still be useful for others)

Enfin, dans l’objectif de répondre aux contraintes d’une temporalité éditoriale extraordinairement restreinte, un #convertisseur de fichiers (outdesign.deborderbollore.fr/) a été produit afin que les textes figurant sur deborderbollore.​fr puissent être générés directement à partir du fichier #InDesign ayant servi à l’impression du #PDF.

Is there a project similar to #rst2pdf for markdown, and is there a project for #rst that may be a little more active? While it is stable, which I like, I would like to see more updates on their repo, even if its just minor, showing that there is some activity.

Looking for something "light" that doesn't use LaTeX to create the PDF.

Okay, das ist jetzt gut genug, um's mal zu releasen.

Pan5008 ist eine HTML- und CSS-Vorlage, um mit Pandoc halbwegs mit DIN 5008 konforme Briefe aufzusetzen. Es kommt ganz ohne LaTeX aus und ist deshalb angenehmer anzupassen für Leute, die in Webtechnologien zu Hause sind.

Eingabedokumente können Markdown sein, oder prinzipiell beliebige andere von Pandoc unterstützte Formate.

Es gibt "Profile", um z.B. bequem unterschiedliche Designs zu definieren.
