Strip metadata in docx content

Strip metadata in docx content

[Jose Costa Teixeira]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 938 bytes --]

Hi

I am starting to use pandoc, so please forgive me if this is a dumb 
question. 

When I convert an (x)html to docx, the docx writer puts the title in the 
file. How can I avoid that?
I can use the command line to give another value to the title (making it 
""), but this still creates an empty line.

Can we strip the metadata from the docx altogeher?

Thanks

Setting the metadata variable to false seems to work:

    pandoc -M title=false

You can also remove metadata via a filter. They might be not visible in 
some native representations of the document but they are there

I'm AFK right now and don't want to post code which maybe doesn't work but
a Lua filter which intercepts the metadata and replaces it with an empty
table probably works.

Thanks, setting the metadata to false is sufficient. I am not familiar with 
filters so when this becomes more advanced I will catch up there.

Transfer metadata in docx content

[Giacomo Lanza]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1055 bytes --]

Hallo,

I have the opposite problem. I _need_ to transfer the metadata in the conversion HTML --> DOCX. According to the manual, this function is not implemented. (It just works for the title, because in HTML it is coded as a <title> element and not as an attribute of a <meta> element.) Reading your answers has given me back some hope. Does anybody know a way to write the metadata in HTML so that they may be transferred (separated from the text)?

Thanks,

Giacomo

Re: Transfer metadata in docx content

[John MacFarlane]

There's an existing issue for this somewhere on the
bug tracker, asking to include more metadata in docx
properties.  You can search for it and comment there.
