Hello,
Last year I had had a problem with citations that had internal terminal
punctuation (that ended, e.g. with exclamation points) rendering correctly
as pdfs. That was solved by an update to a newer version of pandoc.
I am now running into a slightly different problem regarding the rendering
of titles that have internal punctuation inside *nested* quotation marks.
This problem only seems to arise, however, when I'm using German (de-DE)
quotation marks via pandoc-quotes.lua. It does _not_ happen when using the
English or Swiss-German quotes (guillemets), also via pandoc-quotes.lua. (I
had to make the slight change to pandoc-quotes.lua that another user
recently discussed here after updating to the latest version of pandoc.)
So, the original title (as I have it entered in Zotero: I export to a
library in JSON) is:
"Mother, what did policemen do when there weren't any motors?" The law, the
police and the regulation of motor traffic in England, 1900–1939
In English (en-GB) it renders fine (see attached image, en-US is also fine
though with the single- and double-quotes reversed, as it should be).
[image: Cite-en-GB.png]
With de-CH set as language, it also works as expected.
[image: Cite-de-CH.png]
But if I change the language to de-DE (which is the language I actually
need!) the question mark is turned upside down and the closing internal
quote disappears.
[image: Cite-de-DE.png]
The same thing happens with other terminal punctuation marks (e.g.
exclamation points) that are inside nested quotes.
I am running the latest pandoc (2.17.1.1).
I have tried various things, from changing the Zotero entry (using
typographic quote marks, using `` and '' instead of regular quote marks) to
trying export as bibtex/biblatex and nothing seems to work.
It renders fine as a docx.
Am I doing something wrong and/or does anyone have an idea how to solve
this?

I remember having had such problems with pdflatex. What happens if you use --pdfengine=xelatex (or lualatex)?

Thank you very much! --pdf-engine=xelatex did the trick.
[image: Citation-de-DE-xelatex.png]
lualatex threw up a font error. But I'm happy to use xelatex if it works
better.
Do you know whether there any downside to using xelatex? Or is it generally
to be preferred to pdflatex?
Thanks again for the quick response and help!
Best,
John

IIRC, xelatex and pdflatex differ regardings pstricks support and inclusion of certain graphics. But I’m not sure. It’s been a long time since using xelatex.
Also, back then microtype support was better in pdflatex, but that may have changed.

You're wellcome! The only downside that I know of is that it is slower, but it has many advantages.
(Just for information, there is some information about font names in XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX here:

That is right now beyond my ability to figure out (though the "relax" is a
