As long as this is not yet implemen= ted, maybe a little hint in the docu/README should be placed explaining tha= t=E2=80=A6

  • =E2=80=A6Markdown tables do not work in PD= F/LaTeX/Beamer output,
  • =E2=80=A6and will even stop to create = any of the desired output unless the Markdown table is removed altoget= her or replaced by appropriat raw_= tex table code.

Hello John,

I also have an issue with long tables due= to 'longtables' sometimes unnecessarily split small tables (depending wher= e you insert). So, while we don't have a better option how about if pandoc = provide an option to use standard tabular instead of the default longtables= ?

 Correct, use of longtable is hard coded.  This is quite
unfortunate, and I've long been wanting a better alternative
that will work with 2-column text but also break across
pages when needed.  Haven't found one yet.

Failing that, it may be worth having an option for regular
tables.

  Do I indeed have to resort into writing my own raw LaTeX code if I w= ant
  tables in two-column output?

 It's probably possible to redefine the longtable environment
to something else in your preamble.
