Subject: Re: Getting pandoc to convert Github Markdown documents with HTML tags to PDF

HTML tags should be passed through to HTML formats.
Have you looked at the intermediate HTML produced? You can use --verbose to see it.
This seems to work fine:
% pandoc -t html5
_A_<sub>_m_</sub>
<p><em>A</em><sub><em>m</em></sub></p>
PS. You probably want to use -f gfm if you're targeting GitHub Markdown.
Pandoc version?

The thing is, pandoc seems to ignore the HTML tags. Is this a limitation intrinsic to pandoc, or is there any way to get pandoc to process such tags and produce the right output?
