2019-10-10Make some writers sensitive to 'unlisted' class on headings.John MacFarlane1-0/+5
If this is present on a heading with the 'unnumbered' class, the heading won't appear in the TOC. This class has no effect if 'unnumbered' is not also specified. This affects HTML-based writers (including slide shows and epub), LateX (including beamer), RTF, and PowerPoint. Other writers do not yet support `unlisted`. Closes #1762.

2019-09-29Raise error on unsupported extensions. Closes #4338.John MacFarlane1-1/+4
+ An error is now raised if you try to specify (enable or disable) an extension that does not affect the given format, e.g. `docx+pipe_tables`. + The `--list-extensions[=FORMAT]` option now lists only extensions that affect the given FORMAT. + Text.Pandoc.Error: Add constructors `PandocUnknownReaderError`, `PandocUnknownWriterError`, `PandocUnsupportedExtensionError`. [API change] + Text.Pandoc.Extensions now exports `getAllExtensions`, which returns the extensions that affect a given format (whether enabled by default or not). [API change] + Text.Pandoc.Extensions: change type of `parseFormatSpec` from `Either ParseError (String, Extensions -> Extensions)` to `Either ParseError (String, [Extension], [Extension])` [API change]. + Text.Pandoc.Readers: change type of `getReader` so it returns a value in the PandocMonad instance rather than an Either [API change]. Exceptions for unknown formats and unsupported extensions are now raised by this function and need not be handled by the calling function. + Text.Pandoc.Writers: change type of `getWriter` so it returns a value in the PandocMonad instance rather than an Either [API change]. Exceptions for unknown formats and unsupported extensions are now raised by this function and need not be handled by the calling function.

2019-09-24odt: Add external option for native numberingNils Carlson1-0/+10
This adds an external options +native_numbering to the ODT writer enabling enumeration of figures and tables in ODT output.
2019-09-22Make `plain` output plainer.John MacFarlane1-0/+8
Previously we used the following Project Gutenberg conventions for plain output: - extra space before and after level 1 and 2 headings - all-caps for strong emphasis `LIKE THIS` - underscores surrounding regular emphasis `_like this_` This commit makes `plain` output plainer. Strong and Emph inlines are rendered without special formatting. Headings are also rendered without special formatting, and with only one blank line following. To restore the former behavior, use `-t plain+gutenberg`. API change: Add `Ext_gutenberg` constructor to `Extension`. See #5741.

2019-09-20Preserve built-in styles in DOCX with custom style (#5670)Ben Steinberg1-2/+4
This commit prevents custom styles on divs and spans from overriding styles on certain elements inside them, like headings, blockquotes, and links. On those elements, the "native" style is required for the element to display correctly. This change also allows nesting of custom styles; in order to do so, it removes the default "Compact" style applied to Plain blocks, except when inside a table.
2019-09-16Add note on --print-default-template explaining how to print partials.John MacFarlane1-0/+5
2019-09-12Change exit codes.John MacFarlane1-3/+3
It's good practice not to use codes 1-2 for user errors. Also, we used 65 for two different errors. - PandocAppError was 1, is now 4 - PandocOptionError was 2, is now 6 - PandocMakePDFError was 65, is now 66
2019-09-12MANUAL: add section for exit codes.John MacFarlane1-0/+27
2019-09-10Add --shift-heading-level-by option.John MacFarlane1-1/+18
Deprecate --base-heading-level. The new option does everything the old one does, but also allows negative shifts. It also promotes the document metadata (if not null) to a level-1 heading with a +1 shift, and demotes an initial level-1 heading to document metadata with a -1 shift. This supports converting documents that use an initial level-1 heading for the document title. Closes #5615.
2019-09-08MANUAL: document some pptx limitations...John MacFarlane1-0/+5
in slide show section: - no incremental display (#5689) - no pause with `. . .` (#5701)
2019-09-08Add -L option as shortcut for --lua-filter.John MacFarlane1-1/+1
2019-08-24Change optMetadataFile type from Maybe to List (#5702)Owen McGrath1-7/+8
Changed optMetadataFile from `Maybe FilePath` to `[FilePath]`. This allows for multiple YAML metadata files to be added. The new default value has been changed from `Nothing` to `[]`. To account for this change in `Text.Pandoc.App`, `metaDataFromFile` now operates on two `mapM` calls (for `readFileLazy` and `yamlToMeta`) and a fold. Added a test (command/5700.md) which tests this functionality and updated MANUAL.txt, as per the contributing guidelines. With the current behavior, using `foldr1 (<>)`, values within files specified first will be used over those in later files. (If the reverse of this behavior would be preferred, it should be fixed by changing foldr1 to foldl1.)
2019-08-14MANUAL: link to YAML spec (#5687)Mauro Bieg1-4/+6
2019-07-28Use doctemplates 0.3, change type of writerTemplate.John MacFarlane1-13/+12
* Require recent doctemplates. It is more flexible and supports partials. * Changed type of writerTemplate to Maybe Template instead of Maybe String. * Remove code from the LaTeX, Docbook, and JATS writers that looked in the template for strings to determine whether it is a book or an article, or whether csquotes is used. This was always kludgy and unreliable. To use csquotes for LaTeX, set `csquotes` in your variables or metadata. It is no longer sufficient to put `\usepackage{csquotes}` in your template or header includes. To specify a book style, use the `documentclass` variable or `--top-level-division`. * Change template code to use new API for doctemplates.

2019-07-16Add option to include source files in ConTeXt PDFs (#5578)Tristan Stenner1-0/+3

2019-07-15Customizable type of PDF/A for the ConTeXt writer (issue #5608) (#5610)Karl Pettersson1-5/+21
* Let the user choose type of PDF/A generated with ConTeXt (closes #5608) * Updated ConTeXt test documents for changes in tagging * Updated color profile settings in accordance with ConTeXt wiki * Made ICC profile and output intent for PDF/A customizable * Read pdfa variable from meta (and updated manual)
2019-07-12Pass through aria- attributes to HTML5.John MacFarlane1-4/+5
Also document addition of data- prefix to unknown attributes. Closes #5646.
2019-06-14Powerpoint code formatting is now context dependent (#5573)Jeroen de Haas1-0/+9
This commit alters the way in which the Powerpoint writer treats inline code and code blocks. - Inline code is now formatted at the same size as the surrounding text. - Code blocks are now given a margin and font size according to their level. - Furthermore this commit allows changing the font with which code is formatted via the `monofont` option. Tested in - PowerPoint 365 for Windows - 1808 (Build 10730.20344 Click-to-Run) - PowerPoint 365 for Mac - 16.26 (19060901)

2019-06-08PDF via ms: make TOC appear at beginning and in PDF bookmarks.John MacFarlane1-0/+6
Previously the TOC appeared at the end of the document, and was not bookmarked. If you want it to continue appearing at the end, add `--pdf-engine-opt=--no-toc-relocation` to your command line. Closes #5553.
2019-06-06MANUAL.txt, pandoc.cabal: mention Jira as possible target formatAlbert Krewinkel1-2/+4
2019-06-04Fix document section assignments in EPUB writer.John MacFarlane1-5/+12
For example, introduction should go in bodymatter, not frontmatter, and epigraph, conclusion, and afterward should go in bodymatter, not backmatter. For the full list of assignments, see the manual. Closes #5546.
2019-05-28MANUAL: add note about title-meta, author-meta, date-meta.John MacFarlane1-0/+6

2019-04-02Manual: Improve 'header' and 'heading' usage (#5424)Andrew Dunning1-112/+112
Corrects usage of 'heading' and 'header' in text (but does not change programmed names). Partially addresses #5423.
2019-04-02LaTeX template: Ensure correct heading/table order (#5421)Andrew Dunning1-10/+40
Improve the workaround for #1658, adapting a solution by @u-fischer in <https://github.com/latex3/latex2e/issues/131> that works whether or not the `indent` variable is enabled. Remove `subparagraph` variable in LaTeX template. The default is now to use run-in style for level 4 and 5 headings (`\paragraph` and `\subparagraph`). To get the previous default behavior (where these were formatted as blocks, like `\subsubsection`), set the `block-headings` variable. An example is given in the manual of reformatting the appearance of headings more thoroughly using KOMA-Script. Closes #5365.

See #5354.
2019-03-08Allow -o/--output to be used with --print-*.John MacFarlane1-16/+23
`--print-default-data-file` `--print-highlighting-style` `--print-default-template` Note that `-o` must occur BEFORE the `--print*` command on the command line (this is documented). Closes #5357.
2019-03-07Add tectonic as an option for --pdf-engine. (#5346)Cormac Relf1-3/+3
Closes #5345 Runs tectonic on STDIN instead of a temporary .tex file, so that it looks in the working directory for `\include` and `\input` like the rest of the engines. Allows overriding the output directory without messing up the args with `--pdf-engine-opt=--outdir --pdf-engine-opt="$DIR"`.
2019-03-03Update manual date, man page, README.md.John MacFarlane1-1/+1
2019-03-02Use XDG data directory for user data directory.John MacFarlane1-12/+7
Instead of `$HOME/.pandoc`, the default user data directory is now `$XDG_DATA_HOME/pandoc`, where `XDG_DATA_HOME` defaults to `$HOME/.local/share` but can be overridden by setting the environment variable. If this directory is missing, then `$HOME/.pandoc` is searched instead, for backwards compatibility. However, we recommend moving local pandoc data files from `$HOME/.pandoc` to `$HOME/.local/share/pandoc`. On Windows the default user data directory remains the same. Closes #3582.
