I am trying to do a word outline to OPML conversion using pandoc on a
Windows 8.1 box. The outline file is a docx (attached). Any of the
following produce reasonable output:
>pandoc TestOutline.docx -s - o test.xml
>pandoc TestOutline.docx -s - o test.txt (attached)
>pandoc TestOutline.docx -s - o test.html (attached)
But...
>pandoc TestOutline.docx -s - o test.opml produces an OPML 2.0 file with
tags but no data. test.opml is also attached.
Any thoughts on why this would be the case?

The opml writer takes its outline levels from the heading
hierarchy. So, for example:
```
# This is level 1
## This is subpoint A
## This is subpoint B
# This is level 2
etc.
```
Your Word file seems to have an ordered list at the outer
level, with headings inside the list items.
Remove the outer list and you should be fine.

Thanks, John. Using the header levels does, indeed, work. Followup
question... since most outlines one receives in school are formatted using
the multilevel list (so one automatically gets "I., A, 1, i' style
numbering, would it be possible to build a converter that accepts a
multilevel list as input?

Best bet is to create a filter that converts lists into a
hierarchical structure with headings.
See http://pandoc.org/scripting.html to get started.
If you run into trouble, ask here; there are people on this
list who are good at writing filters and may be able to help.
