Detailed influences on Pandoc LaTeX output

Detailed influences on Pandoc LaTeX output

[oelauge]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1152 bytes --]

With custom templates i have influences on the general output.

But i need a customising in detail on some parameters, e.g. the "figure" 
element for pictures in LaTeX.
Pandoc generate for pictures the following output:

\begin{figure}[htbp]
  \centering
  \fbox{
    \includegraphics{filename}
  }
  \caption{Titel}
  \label{Labelname}
\end{figure}


In some situations, the place of the picture is not the right one like 
defined. Here you can say to LaTeX with the parameter:

\begin{figure}[H]

It is a must have to place the picture at the defined place.

This means, that you have a direct influence on the Pandoc output, but how?

Thank you

You can customize output by writing scripts or filters that use the
Pandoc API.  See: http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/scripting.html

Here's a simple example of a filter from an earlier exchange:

You should be able to do something similar to customize the figure environment.

There's no way to do this currently.

I'm encountering a similar situation. While the solution you propose, Paul, 
is viable, is there a reason why it wouldn't be preferable for the default 
output to be:

\begin{figure}[]
  \centering
  \fbox{
    \includegraphics{filename}
  }
  \caption{Titel}
  \label{Labelname}
\end{figure}


and then have something in the default.latex file like:

\makeatletter
  \def\fps@figure{ht}
\makeatother


which would have the same effect, but could be overridden? I'm relatively new to Pandoc, so I'm not sure if that violates some design principle, but it doesn't look like it would be a difficult fix to make, if that's something that the community would accept.

Re: Detailed influences on Pandoc LaTeX output

[John MacFarlane]

Nice suggestion.  In general I like pandoc's latex output to be
as "vanilla" as possible, so that pandoc can be used for generating
fragments and doesn't presuppose lots of special definitions in the
preamble.  (I realize that this often conflicts with customizability.)

So the predictable question is:  what happens with your recommended
output if someone doesn't have the special definition in their preamble?
(That is, how does LaTeX treat the \begin{figure} if no placement
specifiers are given?)  If the default is okay, even without the
special stuff in the preamble, then this seems a good solution.
