\part in LaTeX input

\part in LaTeX input

[Tobias Klausmann]

Hi! 

Near as I can tell, the highest level of structure that PanDoc
currently handles for LaTeX inputs is \chapter. However, I'd like
to use \part. For pdflatex, it results in a separate page with
the title of the part centered vertically and horizontally. I
understand that this is not achievable with all outputs, but all
I require is for it to work with EPUB and maybe XHTML. 

It doesn't even have to mimic the layout of pdflatex (though it
would be nice), but having it as the topmost level of headings is
sort of the requirements. I tried patching things over using a
custom macre thatt would basically expand to:

\clearpage \begin{center}\Huge #1\end{center} \clearpage

But that didn't work, either. Pandoc's habit of quietly dropping
LaTeX stuff it doesn't quite understand can be very frustrating
there.

Anyone got a solution? Or should I open a pandoc bug/issue?

Regards,
Tobias

Hi Tobias,

having the part title vertically centered would be in CSS something
similar to:

    .part {
        fontsize: xx-large;
        margin-top: 40%;
   }

Using part in markdown as source format could be achieved with:

    # Title {.part}

If pandoc ignores \part in LaTeX, I guess you should report it in an
issue (I haven’t checked it, but I wonder whether this hasn’t been
already reported).

Just in case it helps,


Pablo

This doesn't work. I think Pandoc does not support \part in LaTeX. I
would be happy if someone could implement this feature.

Hi Jan Ulrich,

are you sure your previous paragraph belongs to the message?

It seems that pandoc doesn’t support \part in LaTeX (I don’t use LaTeX
myself).

My suggestion intended to fake part titles in XHTML. But this needs
stylying in CSS.

Of course, this doesn’t change the unimplemented \part command in the
LaTeX reader.

Issue with LaTeX reader reported at
https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/issues/1905.

Please, feel free to comment there.

Oh, sorry my mail client has gone wild. I should really read a message
twice before posting.
