siunitx package support in pandoc (filter for \num \numlist \numrange \si and \SI?

[Rainer M Krug]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1453 bytes --]

Hi

I am using the siunitx package in latex and use pandoc to convert the latex 
source to docx.

I am using the \num \numlist \numrange \si and \SI macros from the siunitx 
package. Tese are obviously not supported in pandoc.

Is there a filter which I could use to convert these in  numbers with units 
in in normal text? The docx is not for publication , only for the 
co-authors, so a formating of the numbers with spaces and thousand 
delimiter would be make them happier, but not necessary.

\num{1234567}                       ->   1234567
\numrange{0.1}{6.0}                 ->   0.1-6.0
\numlist{0.1; 2.5; 5.0; 5.5; 6.0}   ->   0.1, 2.5, 5.0, 5.5, 6.0

\si{R}                              ->   R
\SI{17.09}[R]{\per cell}            ->   R17.09 / cell


Is there an easy way of doing this via filter, or would be pre-processing 
of the tex file be easier?

Thanks,

Rainer

It would require at least some TeX parsing in either case.
If all the needed conversions are as simple as in your example it should be
feasible with a filter.

Since this is not for publication, are your coauthors LaTeX literate at
all? If they would be able to understand the raw latex it would be trivial
to turn it into Code elements which will be readable in the the docx.

That are the only ones that I use from the package. I don't think I will use much more.

Not at all - pure MS Word user - even an .odt makes them shiver.

That could work, but not result in very happy co-authors. 

So any conversion would be the best.

Re: siunitx package support in pandoc (filter for \num \numlist \numrange \si and \SI?

[John MacFarlane]

You could try putting macro definitions for these things
into your tex file (or add a small file with the macro
defs to your command line arguments).  If they are simple
(basic newcommand), pandoc will interpret them.
Example:

% pandoc -f latex -t plain
\newcommand{\num}[1]{!#1!}

\num{32}
!32!

Thanks - that works fine, except for the \SI macro, as it has an optional
argument(?) as the second argument. It looks as follow:

\SI{17.09}[R]{cell}            ->   R17.09 cell
\SI{10}{ha}                 ->   17.09 ha

I have no idea how I can implement the first syntax?

and that I have no idea how I can implement the %

\newcommand{\percent}{\%}

produces an error during the pandoc conversion.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Rainer
