1313Pandoc is a [Haskell] library for converting from one markup format to
14−another, and a command-line tool that uses this library.

16−Pandoc can convert between numerous markup and word processing formats,
17−including, but not limited to, various flavors of [Markdown], [HTML],

39+
40+In contrast to most existing tools for converting Markdown to HTML, which
41+use regex substitutions, pandoc has a modular design: it consists of a
42+set of readers, which parse text in a given format and produce a native
43+representation of the document, and a set of writers, which convert

1154+Variables set by pandoc
1155+-----------------------
17611156
1762− [pandoc-templates]: https://github.com/jgm/pandoc-templates
1157+Some variables are set automatically by pandoc. These vary somewhat
1158+depending on the output format, but include metadata fields as well
1159+as the following:
17631160
1764−## Template syntax
1161+`sourcefile`, `outputfile`
1162+: source and destination filenames, as given on the command line.
1163+ `sourcefile` can also be a list if input comes from multiple files, or empty
1164+ if input is from stdin. You can use the following snippet in your template
1165+ to distinguish them:
17651166
1766−### Comments
1167+ $if(sourcefile)$

17671174
1768−Anything between the sequence `$--` and the end of the
1769−line will be treated as a comment and omitted from the output.
1175+ Similarly, `outputfile` can be `-` if output goes to the terminal.
17701176
1771−### Delimiters
1177+`title`, `author`, `date`
1178+: allow identification of basic aspects of the document. Included
1179+ in PDF metadata through LaTeX and ConTeXt. These can be set
1180+ through a [pandoc title block][Extension: `pandoc_title_block`],
1181+ which allows for multiple authors, or through a YAML metadata block:

1773−To mark variables and control structures in the template,
1774−either `$`...`$` or `${`...`}` may be used as delimiters.
1775−The styles may also be mixed in the same template, but the
1776−opening and closing delimiter must match in each case. The
1777−opening delimiter may be followed by one or more spaces

1208+ values)
18071209
1808−- If the value of the variable is simple value, it will be

1240+Language variables
1241+------------------
18501242
1851−The keyword `elseif` may be used to simplify complex nested
1852−conditionals:
1243+`lang`
1244+: identifies the main language of the document,
1245+ using a code according to [BCP 47] (e.g. `en` or `en-GB`).
1246+ For some output formats, pandoc will convert it to an appropriate
1247+ format stored in the additional variables `babel-lang`,
1248+ `polyglossia-lang` (LaTeX) and `context-lang` (ConTeXt).
1249+
1250+ Native pandoc `span`s and `div`s with the lang attribute
1251+ (value in BCP 47) can be used to switch the language in
1252+ that range.
1253+
1254+`otherlangs`
1255+: a list of other languages used in the document
1256+ in the YAML metadata, according to [BCP 47]. For example:
1257+ `otherlangs: [en-GB, fr]`.
1258+ This is automatically generated from the `lang` attributes
1259+ in all `span`s and `div`s but can be overridden.
1260+ Currently only used by LaTeX through the generated
1261+ `babel-otherlangs` and `polyglossia-otherlangs` variables.
1262+ The LaTeX writer outputs polyglossia commands in the text but
1263+ the `babel-newcommands` variable contains mappings for them
1264+ to the corresponding babel.

1266+`dir`
1267+: the base direction of the document, either `rtl` (right-to-left)
1268+ or `ltr` (left-to-right).
18631269
1864−### For loops
1270+ For bidirectional documents, native pandoc `span`s and `div`s
1271+ with the `dir` attribute (value `rtl` or `ltr`) can be used to
1272+ override the base direction in some output formats.
1273+ This may not always be necessary if the final renderer
1274+ (e.g. the browser, when generating HTML) supports the
1275+ [Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm].
18651276
1866−A for loop begins with `for(variable)` (enclosed in
1867−matched delimiters) and ends with `endfor` (enclosed in matched
1868−delimiters.
1277+ When using LaTeX for bidirectional documents, only the `xelatex` engine
1278+ is fully supported (use `--latex-engine=xelatex`).
18691279
1870−- If `variable` is an array, the material inside the loop will
1871− be evaluated repeatedly, with `variable` being set to each
1872− value of the array in turn, and concatenated.
1873−- If `variable` is a map, the material inside will be set to
1874− the map.
1875−- If the value of the associated variable is not an array or
1876− a map, a single iteration will be performed on its value.

2079− for a map or array.
2080−
2081−- `reverse`: Reverses a textual value or array,
2082− and has no effect on other values.
2083−
2084−- `first`: Returns the first value of an array, if

2101−
2102−- `nowrap`: Disables line wrapping on breakable spaces.
2103−
2104−- `alpha`: Converts textual values that can be
2105− read as an integer into lowercase alphabetic
2106− characters `a..z` (mod 26). This can be used to get lettered
2107− enumeration from array indices. To get uppercase

2800−# Extensions
2801−
2802−The behavior of some of the readers and writers can be adjusted by
2803−enabling or disabling various extensions.
2804−
2805−An extension can be enabled by adding `+EXTENSION`
2806−to the format name and disabled by adding `-EXTENSION`. For example,
2807−`--from markdown_strict+footnotes` is strict Markdown with footnotes
2808−enabled, while `--from markdown-footnotes-pipe_tables` is pandoc's
2809−Markdown without footnotes or pipe tables.
2810−
2811−The markdown reader and writer make by far the most use of extensions.
2812−Extensions only used by them are therefore covered in the
2813−section [Pandoc's Markdown] below (See [Markdown variants] for
2814−`commonmark` and `gfm`.) In the following, extensions that also work
2815−for other formats are covered.
2816−
2817−Note that markdown extensions added to the `ipynb` format
2818−affect Markdown cells in Jupyter notebooks (as do command-line
2819−options like `--atx-headers`).
2820−
2821−## Typography
2822−
2823−#### Extension: `smart` ####
2824−
2825−Interpret straight quotes as curly quotes, `---` as em-dashes,
2826−`--` as en-dashes, and `...` as ellipses. Nonbreaking spaces are
2827−inserted after certain abbreviations, such as "Mr."
2828−
2829−This extension can be enabled/disabled for the following formats:
2830−
2831−input formats
2832−: `markdown`, `commonmark`, `latex`, `mediawiki`, `org`, `rst`, `twiki`
2833−
2834−output formats
2835−: `markdown`, `latex`, `context`, `rst`
2836−
2837−enabled by default in
2838−: `markdown`, `latex`, `context` (both input and output)
2839−
2840−Note: If you are *writing* Markdown, then the `smart` extension
2841−has the reverse effect: what would have been curly quotes comes
2842−out straight.
2843−
2844−In LaTeX, `smart` means to use the standard TeX ligatures
2845−for quotation marks (` `` ` and ` '' ` for double quotes,
2846−`` ` `` and `` ' `` for single quotes) and dashes (`--` for
2847−en-dash and `---` for em-dash). If `smart` is disabled,
2848−then in reading LaTeX pandoc will parse these characters
2849−literally. In writing LaTeX, enabling `smart` tells pandoc
2850−to use the ligatures when possible; if `smart` is disabled
2851−pandoc will use unicode quotation mark and dash characters.

2271+### Compact and loose lists ###
2272+
2273+Pandoc behaves differently from `Markdown.pl` on some "edge
2274+cases" involving lists. Consider this source:
2275+
2276+ + First
2277+ + Second:
2278+ - Fee
2279+ - Fie
2280+ - Foe
2281+
2282+ + Third
2283+
2284+Pandoc transforms this into a "compact list" (with no `<p>` tags around
2285+"First", "Second", or "Third"), while Markdown puts `<p>` tags around
2286+"Second" and "Third" (but not "First"), because of the blank space
2287+around "Third". Pandoc follows a simple rule: if the text is followed by
2288+a blank line, it is treated as a paragraph. Since "Second" is followed
2289+by a list, and not a blank line, it isn't treated as a paragraph. The
2290+fact that the list is followed by a blank line is irrelevant. (Note:
2291+Pandoc works this way even when the `markdown_strict` format is specified. This
2292+behavior is consistent with the official Markdown syntax description,
2293+even though it is different from that of `Markdown.pl`.)

2898+
2899+ 1. The default is to render TeX math as far as possible using Unicode
2900+ characters, as with RTF, DocBook, and OpenDocument output. Formulas
2901+ are put inside a `span` with `class="math"`, so that they may be
2902+ styled differently from the surrounding text if needed.
2903+
2904+ 2. If the `--latexmathml` option is used, TeX math will be displayed
2905+ between `$` or `$$` characters and put in `<span>` tags with class `LaTeX`.
2906+ The [LaTeXMathML] script will be used to render it as formulas.
2907+ (This trick does not work in all browsers, but it works in Firefox.
2908+ In browsers that do not support LaTeXMathML, TeX math will appear
2909+ verbatim between `$` characters.)
2910+
2911+ 3. If the `--jsmath` option is used, TeX math will be put inside
2912+ `<span>` tags (for inline math) or `<div>` tags (for display math)
2913+ with class `math`. The [jsMath] script will be used to render
2914+ it.
2915+
2916+ 4. If the `--mimetex` option is used, the [mimeTeX] CGI script will
2917+ be called to generate images for each TeX formula. This should
2918+ work in all browsers. The `--mimetex` option takes an optional URL
2919+ as argument. If no URL is specified, it will be assumed that the
2920+ mimeTeX CGI script is at `/cgi-bin/mimetex.cgi`.
2921+
2922+ 5. If the `--gladtex` option is used, TeX formulas will be enclosed
2923+ in `<eq>` tags in the HTML output. The resulting `htex` file may then
2924+ be processed by [gladTeX], which will produce image files for each
2925+ formula and an HTML file with links to these images. So, the
2926+ procedure is:
2927+
2928+ pandoc -s --gladtex myfile.txt -o myfile.htex
2929+ gladtex -d myfile-images myfile.htex
2930+ # produces myfile.html and images in myfile-images
2931+
2932+ 6. If the `--webtex` option is used, TeX formulas will be converted
2933+ to `<img>` tags that link to an external script that converts
2934+ formulas to images. The formula will be URL-encoded and concatenated
2935+ with the URL provided. For SVG images you can for example use
2936+ `--webtex https://latex.codecogs.com/svg.latex?`.
2937+ If no URL is specified, the CodeCogs URL generating PNGs
2938+ will be used (`https://latex.codecogs.com/png.latex?`).
2939+
2940+ 7. If the `--mathjax` option is used, TeX math will be displayed
2941+ between `\(...\)` (for inline math) or `\[...\]` (for display
2942+ math) and put in `<span>` tags with class `math`.

5068−
5069−Rewrite relative paths for Markdown links and images, depending
5070−on the path of the file containing the link or image link. For
5071−each link or image, pandoc will compute the directory of the

5073−the resulting path to the link or image path.
5074−
5075−The use of this extension is best understood by example.
5076−Suppose you have a a subdirectory for each chapter of a book,

5108−- Attributes that occur immediately before a block
5109− element, on a line by themselves, affect that
5110− element.
5111−- Consecutive attribute specifiers may be used,
5112− either for blocks or for inlines. Their attributes
5113− will be combined.
5114−- Attributes that occur at the end of the text of

5117− option subsumes `header_attributes`.)
5118−- Attributes that occur after the opening fence
5119− in a fenced code block affect the code block element. (Hence,
5120− this option subsumes `fenced_code_attributes`.)
5121−- Attributes that occur at the end of a reference

5259− anything.
5260− - Lazy wrapping of paragraphs is not allowed: the entire definition must
5261− be indented four spaces.[^6]
5262−
5263−[^6]: To see why laziness is incompatible with relaxing the requirement

5405−If both an external bibliography and inline (YAML metadata)
5406−references are provided, both will be used. In case of
5407−conflicting `id`s, the inline references will take precedence.
3422+(`pandoc-citeproc --bib2yaml` can produce these from a bibliography file in one
3423+of the supported formats.)
3424+
3425+Citations and references can be formatted using any style supported by the
3426+[Citation Style Language], listed in the [Zotero Style Repository].
3427+These files are specified using the `--csl` option or the `csl` metadata field.
3428+By default, `pandoc-citeproc` will use the [Chicago Manual of Style] author-date
3429+format. The CSL project provides further information on [finding and editing styles].
3430+
3431+To make your citations hyperlinks to the corresponding bibliography
3432+entries, add `link-citations: true` to your YAML metadata.
3433+
3434+Citations go inside square brackets and are separated by semicolons.
3435+Each citation must have a key, composed of '@' + the citation
3436+identifier from the database, and may optionally have a prefix,
3437+a locator, and a suffix. The citation key must begin with a letter, digit,
3438+or `_`, and may contain alphanumerics, `_`, and internal punctuation
3439+characters (`:.#$%&-+?<>~/`). Here are some examples:
3440+
3441+ Blah blah [see @doe99, pp. 33-35; also @smith04, chap. 1].
3442+
3443+ Blah blah [@doe99, pp. 33-35, 38-39 and *passim*].
3444+
3445+ Blah blah [@smith04; @doe99].
3446+
3447+`pandoc-citeproc` detects locator terms in the [CSL locale files].
3448+Either abbreviated or unabbreviated forms are accepted. In the `en-US`
3449+locale, locator terms can be written in either singular or plural forms,
3450+as `book`, `bk.`/`bks.`; `chapter`, `chap.`/`chaps.`; `column`,
3451+`col.`/`cols.`; `figure`, `fig.`/`figs.`; `folio`, `fol.`/`fols.`;
3452+`number`, `no.`/`nos.`; `line`, `l.`/`ll.`; `note`, `n.`/`nn.`; `opus`,
3453+`op.`/`opp.`; `page`, `p.`/`pp.`; `paragraph`, `para.`/`paras.`; `part`,
3454+`pt.`/`pts.`; `section`, `sec.`/`secs.`; `sub verbo`, `s.v.`/`s.vv.`;
3455+`verse`, `v.`/`vv.`; `volume`, `vol.`/`vols.`; `¶`/`¶¶`; `§`/`§§`. If no
3456+locator term is used, "page" is assumed.
3457+
3458+A minus sign (`-`) before the `@` will suppress mention of
3459+the author in the citation. This can be useful when the
3460+author is already mentioned in the text:
3461+
3462+ Smith says blah [-@smith04].
3463+
3464+You can also write an in-text citation, as follows:
3465+
3466+ @smith04 says blah.
3467+
3468+ @smith04 [p. 33] says blah.
3469+
3470+If the style calls for a list of works cited, it will be placed
3471+at the end of the document. Normally, you will want to end your
3472+document with an appropriate header:
3473+
3474+ last paragraph...
3475+
3476+ # References
3477+
3478+The bibliography will be inserted after this header. Note that
3479+the `unnumbered` class will be added to this header, so that the
3480+section will not be numbered.
3481+
3482+If you want to include items in the bibliography without actually
3483+citing them in the body text, you can define a dummy `nocite` metadata
3484+field and put the citations there:
3485+
3486+ ---
3487+ nocite: |
3488+ @item1, @item2
3489+ ...
3490+
3491+ @item3
54083492
5409−Note that `pandoc` can be used to produce such a YAML metadata
5410−section from a BibTeX, BibLaTeX, or CSL JSON bibliography:
3493+In this example, the document will contain a citation for `item3`
3494+only, but the bibliography will contain entries for `item1`, `item2`, and
3495+`item3`.
54113496
5412− pandoc chem.bib -s -f biblatex -t markdown

5419− pandoc chem.yaml -s -f markdown -t biblatex
3505+For LaTeX or PDF output, you can also use [`natbib`] or [`biblatex`]
3506+to render bibliography. In order to do so, specify bibliography files as
3507+outlined above, and add `--natbib` or `--biblatex` argument to `pandoc`
3508+invocation. Bear in mind that bibliography files have to be in respective
3509+format (either BibTeX or BibLaTeX).

5428−### Capitalization in titles
3521+Non-pandoc extensions
3522+---------------------
54293523
5430−If you are using a bibtex or biblatex bibliography, then observe
5431−the following rules:
3524+The following Markdown syntax extensions are not enabled by default
3525+in pandoc, but may be enabled by adding `+EXTENSION` to the format
3526+name, where `EXTENSION` is the name of the extension. Thus, for
3527+example, `markdown+hard_line_breaks` is Markdown with hard line breaks.
54323528
5433− - English titles should be in title case. Non-English titles should
5434− be in sentence case, and the `langid` field in biblatex should be
5435− set to the relevant language. (The following values are treated
5436− as English: `american`, `british`, `canadian`, `english`,
5437− `australian`, `newzealand`, `USenglish`, or `UKenglish`.)
3529+#### Extension: `old_dashes` ####
54383530
5439− - As is standard with bibtex/biblatex, proper names should be
5440− protected with curly braces so that they won't be lowercased
5441− in styles that call for sentence case. For example:
3531+Selects the pandoc <= 1.8.2.1 behavior for parsing smart dashes:
3532+`-` before a numeral is an en-dash, and `--` is an em-dash.
3533+This option only has an effect if `smart` is enabled. It is
3534+selected automatically for `textile` input.
54423535
5443− title = {My Dinner with {Andre}}
3536+#### Extension: `angle_brackets_escapable` ####
54443537
5445− - In addition, words that should remain lowercase (or camelCase)
5446− should be protected:
3538+Allow `<` and `>` to be backslash-escaped, as they can be in
3539+GitHub flavored Markdown but not original Markdown. This is
3540+implied by pandoc's default `all_symbols_escapable`.
54473541
5448− title = {Spin Wave Dispersion on the {nm} Scale}
3542+#### Extension: `lists_without_preceding_blankline` ####
54493543
5450− Though this is not necessary in bibtex/biblatex, it is necessary
5451− with citeproc, which stores titles internally in sentence case,
5452− and converts to title case in styles that require it. Here we
5453− protect "nm" so that it doesn't get converted to "Nm" at this stage.
3544+Allow a list to occur right after a paragraph, with no intervening
3545+blank space.
54543546
5455−If you are using a CSL bibliography (either JSON or YAML), then observe
5456−the following rules:
3547+#### Extension: `hard_line_breaks` ####
54573548
5458− - All titles should be in sentence case.
3549+Causes all newlines within a paragraph to be interpreted as hard line
3550+breaks instead of spaces.
54593551
5460− - Use the `language` field for non-English titles to prevent their
5461− conversion to title case in styles that call for this. (Conversion
5462− happens only if `language` begins with `en` or is left empty.)
3552+#### Extension: `ignore_line_breaks` ####
54633553
5464− - Protect words that should not be converted to title case using
5465− this syntax:
3554+Causes newlines within a paragraph to be ignored, rather than being
3555+treated as spaces or as hard line breaks. This option is intended for
3556+use with East Asian languages where spaces are not used between words,
3557+but text is divided into lines for readability.
54663558
5467− Spin wave dispersion on the <span class="nocase">nm</span> scale
3559+#### Extension: `east_asian_line_breaks` ####
54683560
5469−### Conference Papers, Published vs. Unpublished
3561+Causes newlines within a paragraph to be ignored, rather than
3562+being treated as spaces or as hard line breaks, when they occur
3563+between two East Asian wide characters. This is a better choice
3564+than `ignore_line_breaks` for texts that include a mix of East
3565+Asian wide characters and other characters.
54703566
5471−For a formally published conference paper, use the biblatex entry type
5472−`inproceedings` (which will be mapped to CSL `paper-conference`).
3567+##### Extension: `emoji` ####
54733568
5474−For an unpublished manuscript, use the biblatex entry type
5475−`unpublished` without an `eventtitle` field (this entry type
5476−will be mapped to CSL `manuscript`).
3569+Parses textual emojis like `:smile:` as Unicode emoticons.
54773570
5478−For a talk, an unpublished conference paper, or a poster
5479−presentation, use the biblatex entry type `unpublished` with an
5480−`eventtitle` field (this entry type will be mapped to CSL
5481−`speech`). Use the biblatex `type` field to indicate the type,
5482−e.g. "Paper", or "Poster". `venue` and `eventdate` may be useful
5483−too, though `eventdate` will not be rendered by most CSL styles.
5484−Note that `venue` is for the event's venue, unlike `location`
5485−which describes the publisher's location; do not use the latter
5486−for an unpublished conference paper.
3571+#### Extension: `tex_math_single_backslash` ####
54873572
3573+Causes anything between `\(` and `\)` to be interpreted as inline
3574+TeX math, and anything between `\[` and `\]` to be interpreted
3575+as display TeX math. Note: a drawback of this extension is that
3576+it precludes escaping `(` and `[`.
54883577
5489−## Specifying a citation style
3578+#### Extension: `tex_math_double_backslash` ####
54903579
5491−Citations and references can be formatted using any style supported by the
5492−[Citation Style Language], listed in the [Zotero Style Repository].
5493−These files are specified using the `--csl` option or the `csl`
5494−(or `citation-style`) metadata field. By default, pandoc will
5495−use the [Chicago Manual of Style] author-date format. (You can
5496−override this default by copying a CSL style of your choice
5497−to `default.csl` in your user data directory.)
5498−The CSL project provides further information on [finding and
5499−editing styles].
5500−
5501−The `--citation-abbreviations` option (or the
5502−`citation-abbreviations` metadata field) may be used to specify
5503−a JSON file containing abbreviations of journals that should be
5504−used in formatted bibliographies when `form="short"` is
5505−specified. The format of the file can be illustrated with an
5506−example:
3580+Causes anything between `\\(` and `\\)` to be interpreted as inline
3581+TeX math, and anything between `\\[` and `\\]` to be interpreted
3582+as display TeX math.
55073583
3584+#### Extension: `markdown_attribute` ####
55083585
5509− { "default": {
5510− "container-title": {
5511− "Lloyd's Law Reports": "Lloyd's Rep",

5513− "Scots Law Times": "SLT"
5514− }
5515− }
5516− }
3586+By default, pandoc interprets material inside block-level tags as Markdown.
3587+This extension changes the behavior so that Markdown is only parsed
3588+inside block-level tags if the tags have the attribute `markdown=1`.
55173589
3590+#### Extension: `mmd_title_block` ####
55183591
5519−## Citations in note styles
3592+Enables a [MultiMarkdown] style title block at the top of
3593+the document, for example:
55203594
5521−Pandoc's citation processing is designed to allow you to
5522−move between author-date, numerical, and note styles without
5523−modifying the markdown source. When you're using a note
5524−style, avoid inserting footnotes manually. Instead, insert
5525−citations just as you would in an author-date style---for
5526−example,
3595+ Title: My title
3596+ Author: John Doe
3597+ Date: September 1, 2008
3598+ Comment: This is a sample mmd title block, with
3599+ a field spanning multiple lines.
55273600
5528− Blah blah [@foo, p. 33].
3601+See the MultiMarkdown documentation for details. If `pandoc_title_block` or
3602+`yaml_metadata_block` is enabled, it will take precedence over
3603+`mmd_title_block`.
55293604
5530−The footnote will be created automatically. Pandoc will take
5531−care of removing the space and moving the note before or
5532−after the period, depending on the setting of
5533−`notes-after-punctuation`, as described below in [Other relevant
5534−metadata fields].
3605+#### Extension: `abbreviations` ####
55353606
5536−In some cases you may need to put a citation inside a regular
5537−footnote. Normal citations in footnotes (such as `[@foo, p.
5538−33]`) will be rendered in parentheses. In-text citations (such
5539−as `@foo [p. 33]`) will be rendered without parentheses. (A
5540−comma will be added if appropriate.) Thus:
3607+Parses PHP Markdown Extra abbreviation keys, like

3609+ *[HTML]: Hypertext Markup Language
55453610
5546−## Raw content in a style
3611+Note that the pandoc document model does not support
3612+abbreviations, so if this extension is enabled, abbreviation keys are
3613+simply skipped (as opposed to being parsed as paragraphs).
55473614
5548−To include raw content in a prefix, suffix, delimiter, or term,
5549−surround it with these tags indicating the format:
3615+#### Extension: `autolink_bare_uris` ####
55503616
5551− {{jats}}<ref>{{/jats}}
3617+Makes all absolute URIs into links, even when not surrounded by
3618+pointy braces `<...>`.
55523619
5553−Without the tags, the string will be interpreted as a string
5554−and escaped in the output, rather than being passed through raw.
3620+#### Extension: `ascii_identifiers` ####
55553621
5556−This feature allows stylesheets to be customized to give
5557−different output for different output formats. However,
5558−stylesheets customized in this way will not be usable
5559−by other CSL implementations.
3622+Causes the identifiers produced by `auto_identifiers` to be pure ASCII.
3623+Accents are stripped off of accented Latin letters, and non-Latin
3624+letters are omitted.
55603625
3626+#### Extension: `mmd_link_attributes` ####
55613627
3628+Parses multimarkdown style key-value attributes on link
3629+and image references. This extension should not be confused with the
3630+[`link_attributes`](#extension-link_attributes) extension.
55623631
5563−## Placement of the bibliography
3632+ This is a reference ![image][ref] with multimarkdown attributes.
55643633
5565−If the style calls for a list of works cited, it will be placed
5566−in a div with id `refs`, if one exists:
3634+ [ref]: http://path.to/image "Image title" width=20px height=30px
3635+ id=myId class="myClass1 myClass2"

5569− :::
3637+#### Extension: `mmd_header_identifiers` ####

5572−Generation of the bibliography can be suppressed by setting
5573−`suppress-bibliography: true` in the YAML metadata.
3639+Parses multimarkdown style header identifiers (in square brackets,
3640+after the header but before any trailing `#`s in an ATX header).
55743641
5575−If you wish the bibliography to have a section heading, you can
5576−set `reference-section-title` in the metadata, or put the heading
5577−at the beginning of the div with id `refs` (if you are using it)
5578−or at the end of your document:
3642+#### Extension: `compact_definition_lists` ####
55793643
5580− last paragraph...
3644+Activates the definition list syntax of pandoc 1.12.x and earlier.
3645+This syntax differs from the one described above under [Definition lists]
3646+in several respects:
55813647
5582− # References
3648+ - No blank line is required between consecutive items of the
3649+ definition list.
3650+ - To get a "tight" or "compact" list, omit space between consecutive
3651+ items; the space between a term and its definition does not affect
3652+ anything.
3653+ - Lazy wrapping of paragraphs is not allowed: the entire definition must
3654+ be indented four spaces.[^6]
55833655
5584−The bibliography will be inserted after this heading. Note that
5585−the `unnumbered` class will be added to this heading, so that the
5586−section will not be numbered.
3656+[^6]: To see why laziness is incompatible with relaxing the requirement
3657+ of a blank line between items, consider the following example:
55873658
5588−## Including uncited items in the bibliography

5590−If you want to include items in the bibliography without actually
5591−citing them in the body text, you can define a dummy `nocite` metadata
5592−field and put the citations there:
3664+ Is this a single list item with two definitions of "bar," the first of
3665+ which is lazily wrapped, or two list items? To remove the ambiguity

4045+ In addition, headers will be rendered setext-style (with underlines)

6497−3. Pandoc's parsers can exhibit pathological performance on some
6498− corner cases. It is wise to put any pandoc operations under
