DOCX output, headings in square brackets

DOCX output, headings in square brackets

[Václav Zeman]

Hi.

I am seeing that all headings in DOCX output are in square brackets.
The brackets do not seem to be selectable though. Is there a reason
for this? Can the square brackets be removed anyhow?

[John MacFarlane]

Can you give sample input that causes headings in square brackets
in the docx output?  Also give the command line you used, and
pandoc version.

I am attaching a screenshot that shows the square brackets. The
command line I have used (beside input and output file names) is this:

-f markdown+pipe_tables+table_captions+strikeout+footnotes+inline_notes
--slide-level=2 --number-sections --smart --self-contained
--standalone --toc --toc-depth=4 --listings --normalize

I am also attaching a sample of generated DOCX that shows the square brackets.

Re: DOCX output, headings in square brackets

[John MacFarlane]

This isn't much help unless you also give me some input that
produces the bracketed headings.

Note also:
markdown+pipe_tables+table_captions+strikeout+footnotes+inline_notes
is unnecessary, since standard pandoc 'markdown' includes all those
extensions already.

--slide-level is not appropriate for docx output, since that isn't a
slide format.

--self-contained is also unnecessary, since all docx are self-contained.
Ditto --standalone.

Normally --normalize isn't needed.

--listings is only for latex output.

Strange.  When I open your square-brackets.docx in Word, I don't
see any square brackets.  What version of Word are you using, btw?

I am using the same command line to output many different formats at the
same time from a batch script. At the time I wrote the batch script, it
seemed that keeping the redundant options did not have any adverse
effect. I will retest.

I have added another heading using Word and then I have dissected the
resulting DOCX file. Here is what Word produces for the additional
heading added manually:

        <w:p w:rsidR="00455074" w:rsidRDefault="00455074" w:rsidP="00455074">
            <w:pPr>
                <w:pStyle w:val="Heading2"/>
            </w:pPr>
            <w:r>
                <w:t>Heading without square brackets</w:t>
            </w:r>
        </w:p>

And here is what Pandoc produces for the headings that show the brackets for me:

        <w:p w:rsidR="00A61853" w:rsidRDefault="004C1970">
            <w:pPr>
                <w:pStyle w:val="Heading2"/>
            </w:pPr>
            <w:bookmarkStart w:id="1" w:name="heading-2"/>
            <w:r>
                <w:t>Heading 2</w:t>
            </w:r>
        </w:p>
        <w:bookmarkEnd w:id="1"/>

The only differences that I can spot are that

1. w:rsidR and w:rsidRDefault attributes are different.
2. There is additional pair of w:bookmarkStart and w:bookmarkEnd for
the Pandoc produced headings.
3. Also notice, that the w:bookmarkStart and w:bookmarkEnd are not on
the same levels. Is this correct?

Interesting.  I just ran pandoc to generate a docx from this source:

## Header 2

The body of the result was:

  <w:body>
    <w:bookmarkStart w:id="21" w:name="heading-2" />
    <w:p>
      <w:pPr>
        <w:pStyle w:val="Heading2" />
      </w:pPr>
      <w:r>
        <w:t xml:space="preserve">                                              
Heading 2                                                                       
</w:t>
      </w:r>
    </w:p>
    <w:bookmarkEnd w:id="21" />
  </w:body>

I note several differences from what you attach above.
I'm guessing that what you've sent me is not what pandoc produced,
but perhaps the result of saving what pandoc produced from Word?
Odd, though, that Word would produce invalid HTML.
