Matt GemmellWorking on my <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/pandoc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#pandoc</a>-based Markdown publishing system. Seems to me that the big gap is with non-fiction, where you often want to show or explain something technical or detailed, and need to decide how to mark it up. Full syntax-highlighting is of little use because it lacks focus or annotation (and only works for source code), and manual tagging with HTML/CSS is tedious and lacks automation.

In one of my templates, link at end, I'm trying to make a version that will generate/add page numbers when I convert with Pandoc using this template. For some reason, Microsoft Word won't let me add page numbers to the template itself. Has anyone done this with templates? Made it so page numbers are added upon conversion? Literary agents and publishers don't like plain text files, and they need things in Shun Manuscript format, some agents and publishers want page numbers so I wanna just add it to a template and never have to think about it again. This is my template. <a href="https://github.com/rkingett/writertools/blob/main/Pandoc%20templates/PandocReferenceWithHeadingsCreatingNewPages.docx" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://github.com/rkingett/writertools/blob/main/Pandoc%20templates/PandocReferenceWithHeadingsCreatingNewPages.docx</a>

Matt GemmellAnother example of using Publish, my <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/pandoc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#pandoc</a> wrapper, this time to publish any instalment in a novel series, using shared front-/back-matter for consistency, and clean manuscript Markdown files. <a href="https://mattgemmell.scot/publishing-a-novel-series-with-pandoc-publish/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://mattgemmell.scot/publishing-a-novel-series-with-pandoc-publish/</a>

Matt GemmellI spent yesterday evening overhauling the recently-added exclusions feature in my <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/pandoc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#pandoc</a> wrapper for publishing novels. It’s pretty fancy now, and I'm pleased with it.

Matt GemmellMy little <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/pandoc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#pandoc</a> wrapping novel-publishing system is getting really useful (for me!). Today I added pattern-based file-exclusions. There's a lot of functionality to make repeatable, automatable, book-specific customisations.

Lanie Molinar CarmeloHoping those familiar with <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/LaTeX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LaTeX</a> can give me some advice here. I've started using it to create my assignments for school. I'm not writing technical papers yet, but I find using LaTeX with <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/Zotero" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Zotero</a> in <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/VSCode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#VSCode</a> more <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/accessible" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#accessible</a> with a <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/ScreenReader" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ScreenReader</a> than most other setups I've tried. Since my discussion posts have to follow <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/APA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#APA</a> style, I’m using LaTeX for those as well as full papers. That part is going well—but I’m running into trouble when I need to actually post what I’ve written. My school uses Brightspace, which allows discussion posts in either rich text or <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/HTML" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HTML</a>. I have <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/Pandoc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Pandoc</a> installed, so I tried converting my LaTeX source to HTML and pasting the code. But Pandoc didn’t include my references section in the output. I also tried copying from the PDF, but that stripped all formatting. Does anyone know how I can get a clean HTML version of my work—with references included—that I can paste into Brightspace? Here’s the command I’ve been using: pandoc main.tex \ --bibliography=references. Bib \ --csl=apa.csl \ --standalone \ -o main.html It creates the HTML file, but the references section is missing.
