I am using Pandoc to integrate Scrivener with Zotero. I write in Scrivener
adding the Zotero citation keys, compile a .txt file, then use Pandoc to
convert the .txt file into a Word file in which the citation keys are
effectively translated in my preferred citation style (APA in this case).
Following the instructions on this
<https://davepwsmith.github.io/academic-scrivener-howto/> webpage, I also
set up "Marked 2" to show the output of what I was writing in Scrivener
using markdown.
Here comes the problem: newlines.
If I write in Scrivener:
I want a newline after this.
This should be a newline.
then Marked 2 is showing:
I want a newline after this. This should be a newline.
So then I wrote in Scrivener:
I want a newline after this.<br>
This should be a newline.
Marked 2:
I want a newline after this.
This should be a newline.
Great! Now I compile into a .txt file and I get:
I want a newline after this.<br>
This should be a newline.
OK, now it is time to use Pandoc.
I type the following command into the terminal:
pandoc -s -S --normalize --bibliography
~/Dropbox/_Research/Master_Thesis/Master.bib --csl
~/Dropbox/_Research/apa.csl
-f markdown -t docx -o trial.docx /Users/S/Desktop/test_st.txt
I get my .docx file (and when I do this with a full document, all my
citations are there, so that works!), but then I read:
I want a newline after this. This should be a newline.
Note that the <br> that was present in the .txt file is gone, but still I
did not get a newline.

Hi Serena
I think you want \n (backslash n) rather than <br>
Take care

Try
-f markdown+hard_line_breaks
and the newlines in your document will be interpreted as
line breaks, if that's what you want. (Don't include
raw '<br>' tags in the markdown; they will only be passed
on to HTML output, not docx.)

Pandoc doesn't support raw html in docx export.
For simple test document worked combination
pandoc -f markdown+raw_html -t html -s -o test.html test.md
pandoc -f html -t docx test.html
But I don't know if it will work with additional bibliography processing.

Thank you all for your help. I found that -f markdown+hard_line_breaks
worked!
