Inline code in docx

Inline code in docx

[Michael Goerz]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 912 bytes --]

When I have inline "verbatim" code marked with backticks in pandoc markdown 
(`code`), and convert to docx, the code appears as normal text. I would 
expect the text in the docx to have a style associated with it that 
distinguishes it from normal text. I could then modify that style in the 
template file (--reference-doc) to use a monospace font.

Am I overlooking some option/extension that I have to enable? I'm not 
asking about multi-line code snippets, just inline code.

Thanks,
Michael Goerz

Ah, never mind. For whatever reason, my template file did not contain a 
character style "Verbatim Char" (which is that style name mentioned in the 
docs). Adding this character style manually causes pandoc to use it in the 
conversion.

It should appear in a monospace font.  Give us exact markdown
text used, exact command line, and pandoc version?

It does indeed. I was able to figure out that the problem was with the template file: it did not contain a "Verbatim char" style. Probably because the template wasn't generated by pandoc, but something that I received by email. Adding that style manually solved the problem.
