Incorrect column widths / text off page, for table containing math

Dear all, 

I posted this question elsewhere <https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/issues/7317> 
but was asked to ask again here, so here I am.

This table


| Profit-at-risk (gas) | |
|:---|:---|
|For modelling | $\Delta rmp_{par gas} = \underbrace{-qu_0 \cdot \Delta 
pu_L - (\Delta qo_L + \Delta qo_S) \cdot (pu_0 + \Delta pu_L - po_0) - qu_L 
\cdot \Delta pu_S}_{\text{indirect}} \  \underbrace{- \Delta qo_S \cdot 
\Delta pu_S}_{\text{direct}}$ |
| (idealised) | $\Delta rmp_{par gas} = \underbrace{- \Delta qo_S \cdot 
(pu_L - po_0)}_{\text{indirect}} \ \underbrace{-\Delta qo_S \cdot \Delta 
pu_S}_{\text{direct}}$ |


is rendered to pdf like this:
[image: 119658665-b5553c80-be2d-11eb-957a-ce4333d04f24.png]

That can't be right. Is there something I did wrong, i.e. let me know if 
there is anything I can do to help in finding the bug.

Here are my versions:

pandoc.exe 2.13
Compiled with pandoc-types 1.22, texmath 0.12.2, skylighting 0.10.5,
citeproc 0.3.0.9, ipynb 0.1.0.1

Many thanks and Best regards

Re: Incorrect column widths / text off page, for table containing math

See the pandoc manual under pipe tables:

If a pipe table contains a row whose Markdown content is wider
than the column width (see --columns), then the table will take
up the full text width and the cell contents will wrap, with the
relative cell widths determined by the number of dashes in the
line separating the table header from the table body. (For
example ---|- would make the first column 3/4 and the second
column 1/4 of the full text width.)

Your table has

|:---|:---|

which says to  make the columns equal-width.  Try

|:-|:-----|

for example, to make the right-hand column 5 x the
width of the left-hand column.

Note that in LaTeX tables widths must be specified;
LaTeX doesn't calculate optimum column widths the way
HTML does.

Hi John MacFarlane,

In the below thread you mention

> Note that in LaTeX tables widths must be specified; LaTeX doesn't 
calculate optimum column widths the way HTML does.

In that case would you care to explain how table widths are specified by 
pandoc when converting from markdown to LaTeX? Everything I've read on 
tables seems to suggest that pandoc attempts to compute the width itself. 
Is there any way to specify that or control it more explicitly?

Regards,

Amine
