Pandoc -> convert .TXT to .PDF >> no newline

Pandoc -> convert .TXT to .PDF >> no newline

Hi !

I'm programming a bash script, and i'm come to use pandoc.

My bash script creates a text file as "facture"

etc

BUT

When I test in my Konsole
"Pandoc facture -o facture.pdf"

it prints a .pdf file without any "new line".

I tried to rename the file then "pandoc facture.txt -o facture.pdf"
Same result.

Any idea ?

thanks
Brieuc

Does this[1] section in the manual answer you question? In short,
single newlines are interpreted as spaces but if you want hard line
breaks then you can use `pandoc -f markdown+hard_line_breaks`.

Hey !
Thank for your answer. I manage "single newline" trick. It's cool, since I 
have some " | " each newline.

I have somme trouble with Pandoc man (i'm french and didnt know markdown 
etc...). 
And I 

I'm now looking for "tabulation".
In fact, my text file look to this (look for facture.jpg)
and then "pandoc -f markdown_strict+hard_line_breaks facture -o facture.pdf"
and give me "facture.pdf" joined to this mssg)

Thank for your help

Re: Pandoc -> convert .TXT to .PDF >> no newline

[Jan Ulrich Hasecke]

Have a look at YAML blocks and the usage of variables.

You could modify your bash skript that it creates variables in a YAML
block like this:

---
clientname : Peter Pan
clientaddress1: Foo-Street 1
clientaddress2: 12345 Bar-Town
(and so on)
...

Then you can modify the latex template using some kind of invoice
template. Include the variable names where you need them and call pandoc
with the modified template.


For example the variables from the YAML block in the template:

\begin{letter}{%
$clientname$\\
$clientaddress1$\\
$clientaddress2$%
}

pandoc facture.txt --template=invoice.latex -o invoice.pdf

This way you can use the typesetting power of TeX in a better way.

juh

Hey !

I dont really have time to learn a new "format" langage.
So i decided to echo > TXT in HTML format, then print it in PDF with 
wkhtmltopdf instead of pandoc.

And it works!

Thank you for your help :)
