Conversion of underbrace (to and from Word)

Conversion of underbrace (to and from Word)

[Emma Cliffe]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1781 bytes --]


Morning,

I am having trouble getting pandoc to convert underbrace either into Word 
or out of Word. I wondered if there is either something I am doing wrong, 
whether this is a known problem (I can't find a report) or if there is a 
work round for converting into Word. 

If I try to convert:
\[
\underbrace{xxx\ldots xx}_n
\]
for instance then what I get in Word (linear format) is:
((xxx…xx)┬⏟)┬n
which does not render as a stretched underbrace.

I would expect to get:
⏟(xxx…xx)┬n
which is typed directly into Word as \underbrace(xxx\ldots xx)_n (then 
space to trigger). You get the same linear interpretation if you use the 
mouse to create the structure.

The above is the direction I am interested in. I am actually converting 
from MathML and see the same behaviour as in the cut down test of md or tex 
to docx I have explained above. 

For completeness I tried to convert in the other direction. Starting from 
the above structure in Word I end up with:
\[\underset{n}{}\]
which has not only lost the xxx...xx but underbrace has become underset 
which is not the same thing. 

Does anyone know anything more about this? 

Many thanks,
Emma

Sorry, should have said, this is with pandoc 1.19.2.1.

And, in case it is useful, the MathML:
<math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="block">
  <mrow>
    <munder class="msub">
      <mrow>
    <munder accentunder="false">
      <mrow> 
        <mi>x</mi>
        <mi>x</mi>
        <mi>x</mi>
        <mo class="MathClass-op">&#x2026;</mo>
        <mi>x</mi>
        <mi>x</mi>
      </mrow>
      <mo>&#xFE38;</mo>
      </munder> 
      </mrow>
      <mrow>
    <mi>n</mi>
    </mrow>
    </munder>
  </mrow>
</math>

This is rendered correctly by MathJax and by Firefox native rendering. If I 
transform that using pandoc to LaTeX, for instance, I get:
\[\underset{n}{\underset{\}\ }{xxx\ldots xx}}\]
This renders in the same unexpected manner as the Word rendering when going 
the other way. 

Thanks,
Emma

Re: Conversion of underbrace (to and from Word)

[John MACFARLANE]

This bug got fixed in texmath in February 2016.

If you compile your pandoc against the most recent version
of texmath, it should work.

Anyway, this will be fixed in the pandoc 2.0 binary
packages.  Or you can try (at your own risk) a binary
from pandoc-nightlies.

Dear John,

Thanks for the information below. For some reason I didn't see your 
response when you posted it. I have just now tried the latest version of 
pandoc from the downloads page (pandoc 2.1.1 Compiled with pandoc-types 
1.17.3, texmath 0.10.1, skylighting 0.6) and I am getting the same problem. 
The output in linear format of Word is ((xxx…xx)┬(} ))┬n which does not 
render correctly. This seems to be about the same as what I was getting 
before: ((xxx…xx)┬⏟)┬n and not what I would expect to get: ⏟(xxx…xx)┬n

From what I can tell the binary is using a version of texmath that contains 
the below mentioned fix?

Thanks for any help you can give us. 
Emma

Here's what I get when I convert

$$
\underbrace{xxx\ldots xx}_n
$$

from markdown to docx (see attached screenshot).

That looks just right to me.  I wasn't sure how to
interpret your "linear format" strings, so I'm not
sure what you're seeing.  You can attach a screenshot.

Your pandoc is compiled against a recent version
of texmath (0.10.1).

Dear John,

Sorry, I should have tested more extensively. You are correct, this does 
fix the LaTeX to Word conversion. However, we are actually converting 
MathML to Word. When I originally reported it I got the same incorrect 
result on conversion from LaTeX to Word and on conversion from MathML to 
Word so I reported both at once as I assumed, obviously incorrectly that 
the two issues had the same cause. I have now checked everything and the 
situation is:

LaTeX to Word is now producing the correct output
MathML to Word is still producing incorrect output

The MathML is:

<math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="block">
  <mrow>
    <munder>
      <mrow>
    <munder>
      <mrow>
        <mi>x</mi>
        <mi>x</mi>
        <mi>x</mi>
        <mo>&#x2026;</mo>
        <mi>x</mi>
        <mi>x</mi>
      </mrow>
      <mo>&#xFE38;</mo>
    </munder>
      </mrow>
      <mrow>
    <mi>n</mi>
      </mrow>
    </munder>
  </mrow>
</math>

The above renders correctly in Firefox (native rendering) and using 
MathJax. I am pretty sure that this is the right MathML?

I attach a screenshot of what I get when I render the above and the output 
of the transform to Word. I'll keep trying to work out what is actually 
happening.

Many thanks for any insights,
Emma

Re: Conversion of underbrace (to and from Word)

[Emma Cliffe]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 9038 bytes --]


Dear John,

Okay, I think that I have solved the issue. The clue was in 
https://hackage.haskell.org/package/texmath-0.8.6.5/changelog where it 
states "Fixed overbrace, underbrace (#82). Previously we were using the 
wrong character: U+FE37 instead of U+23DE. This didn't work in Word." If I 
switch the unicode character in the input mathML then the conversion does 
then work correctly in a simple test. 

The mathML does still render correctly so I guess I need to switch unicode 
under and over braces. 

Sorry for the confusion and thanks for your time.
Emma

Re: Conversion of underbrace (to and from Word)

[Emma Cliffe]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 9600 bytes --]


Dear John,

Just final confirmation after retesting: to get the transform to work from 
mathML to Word I needed both pandoc 2.1.1 (so presumably the fix you 
referred to) *and* the correct unicode symbol in the mathML. 

Thanks again,
Emma

Great, I'm glad it's solved!
