Ok. :) That gives me some idea how to puzzle it out. I will see what I can try and then if I get stuck, I will come back with hopefully more specific questions. 

Thanks,

I don’t know. Usually, the best way to debug these issues is to build a minimal file in latex. Tweak there until it works (maybe ask on tex.stackexchange for help if you can isolate specific issues). Then, once you know how the latex source should look like, work backwards from there and adjust the pandoc parameters.

 

If you share a source file, I can test how it renders here.

 

Best,

Denis

Betreff: Re: SBL BibLit Font in Pandoc export

 

After looking around more, I found that adding the following YAML to my markdown file seems to make the Hebrew and Greek appear when I do a Latex/Xetex --> PDF export with Pandoc. However, I can only get Everson Mono or Lucida Sans Unicode to format the Hebrew appropriately. So far, other fonts that have the Greek and Hebrew fonts (e.g., Calibri, Times New Roman, etc.) do not format the Hebrew correctly. The vowel points are off. However ... if I use the Pandoc to docx converter, it formats just fine. I am suspecting it has something to do with the Latex / Xetex exporting. Do I need something else in my YAML to handle the Hebrew better? The text of my document is usually a mix of English, Hebrew, and Greek.

 

My YAML looks like this:

---
title: Notes on ______________
author: Stuart Thiessen
lang: en-US
documentclass: extarticle
mainfont: Everson Mono
monofont: Everson Mono
toc: true
header-includes:
  - \usepackage{tcolorbox}
toc-title: "Contents"
fontsize: 9pt
number-sections: true
name: ________
---

 

Thanks,


Stuart

I just did another test exporting to another format (.docx) and it exports the Greek/Hebrew fine to a Word document. But if I try to export to PDF via latex, the Greek and Hebrew are missing. So, I'm guessing it has something to do with the routing through Latex?

 

Thanks,

I'm using the pandoc plugin in Obsidian that converts the Obsidian markdown to Latex and runs it through pdflatex to output as a PDF. I am not using any additional templates or other customizations. It should be fairly straightforward. It is a plain output to PDF. I'm just confused why it would drop the Greek and Hebrew unicode characters. But the .md files (as best as I can determine) are utf-8 files and pandoc assumes a utf-8 file so I expected the Greek and Hebrew to pass through without a problem. 

 

I can also leave this question with the author of the plugin, but it seems more of a pandoc issue than a plugin issue. 

 

Thanks,

What exactly are you doing? We (I) need more details to debug...

Betreff: SBL BibLit Font in Pandoc export

I have research notes in Obsidian that I am exporting to PDF. My notes use the SBL BibLit font [SBL Educational Resources (sbl-site.org)<https://www.sbl-site.org/educational/BiblicalFonts_SBLBibLit.aspx>]. Unfortunately, all Greek and Hebrew words ---though present in Obsidian--- do not appear in my PDF export using Pandoc. If I use the native Obsidian export to PDF, the Greek and Hebrew do show up. But I want to export via Pandoc to take advantage of Pandoc's features. Any ideas what I can do to make the Greek and Hebrew appear?

Thanks,

Stuart
