I use pandoc (version 2.5) on Linux to convert Markdown to DOCX:
pandoc -s file.md -t docx --reference-doc=style-ref.docx -o file.docx
I created the file style-ref.docx via pandoc --print-default-data-file=reference.docx > style-ref.docx and then modified it in MS Word.
However the formatting changes saved to style-ref.docx do not seem to be applied to the result document.
What's going wrong?
How can I debug this? Calling pandoc with --verbose doesn't give any more clues.
