Header attributes and docx

Header attributes and docx

[Miguel]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 922 bytes --]


Say you have the following file:

# This is a section {#section}

Converting this to html/docbook/latex and back to markdown properly handles 
and keeps the header attribute:

> pandoc -t docbook test.md | pandoc -f docbook -t markdown

# This is a section {#section}

But when converting and reversing from docx, the header attribute is lost:

> pandoc -t docx test.md | pandoc -f docx -t markdown 

# This is a section

How can this be fixed, and convert back from docx without losing the given 
header id?

Conversions are generally lossy; some info cannot be preserved. In this
case here the issue is that the docx reader ignores "bookmark" entries
in the input document. Changing this would require updates to the docx
reader:

Thanks Albert. 

I am not familiar/fluent with the pandoc readers/writers, but it seems that 
the bookmark is properly transported to the docx,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<w:document 
xmlns:w="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main" 
xmlns:m="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/math" 
xmlns:r="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships" 
xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" 
xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" 
xmlns:w10="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word" 
xmlns:a="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/drawingml/2006/main" 
xmlns:pic="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/drawingml/2006/picture" 
xmlns:wp="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/drawingml/2006/wordprocessingDrawing">
  <w:body>
    <w:bookmarkStart w:id="20" w:name="section" />
    <w:p>
      <w:pPr>
        <w:pStyle w:val="Heading1" />
      </w:pPr>
      <w:r>
        <w:t xml:space="preserve">This is a section</w:t>
      </w:r>
    </w:p>
    <w:bookmarkEnd w:id="20" />
    <w:sectPr />
  </w:body>
</w:document>

It is when writing back to md that the heading attribute is not sent back.
