Convert text to ICML, Error unexpected "%"

Convert text to ICML, Error unexpected "%"

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1281 bytes --]

Hello,

I'm new to Pandoc and Latex and I try to convert an tex-file to icml for 
using with Indesign.
But now I get an error in my terminal:

This is the command I use:

pandoc-test Jan$ pandoc /Users/Jan/Downloads/tex/doc/bookdoc.tex -f latex 
> -t icml -s -o /Users/Jan/Downloads/tex/doc/bookdoc.icml


and this the error I got shown up:

pandoc: 
> Error at "input" (line 22, column 8):
> unexpected "%"
> expecting letter, lf new-line, "*", "[" or "{"
> \author%
>        ^
> CallStack (from HasCallStack):
>   error, called at src/Text/Pandoc/Error.hs:66:13 in 
> pandoc-1.19.2.1-J1nmFBg9ln971v0RrPbKLJ:Text.Pandoc.Error


Can anyone tell me what the the problem is and how can I solve this?

Best,
Jan

It seems your tex file contains something that Pandoc cannot 
handle. You have a percent sign (comment marker) directly 
following the `\author` macro. I suspect that is valid LaTeX, but 
it seems Pandoc doesn't know about this. So the quick work-around 
is to remove that percent sign and anything following it on the 
same line, and then try again.

John will have to decide if he wants to make Pandoc accept this 
sort of thing or not.

Hi,

in Texshop, a gui for OSX, I have no problems to output it as PDF with no 
problems.
The data comes from a ready to use class: 
https://github.com/vtex-soft/texsupport.aka

The % is on a lot of positions in the .tex document. Also before the Line 
22, so it is a little bit confussing.

Yeah, like I said, it's valid LaTeX. The problem is that Pandoc 
apparently doesn't accept it. Pandoc is not a TeX engine, it uses 
its own LaTeX parser, so there's no guarantee that everything that 
is allowed / possible in LaTeX is actually accepted by Pandoc's 
LaTeX reader.

If it's valid LaTeX, we should try to accept it.

It would be helpful if someone can submit a bug report
on our issue tracker.  It has nothing to do with ICML,
it's about the LaTeX reader.
