I am using the PDF engine wkhtmltopdf to convert a given markdown file to 
PDF. When I use --pdf-engine-opt to pass the parameter "footer-html" to 
wkhtmltopdf, I always encounter the following error, regardless of whether 
I include the --enable-local-file-access option or not:

My pandoc command line is as follows, and the input.md file, convert.css 
file, header.html file, and footer.html file involved are all in the same 
directory as pandoc.exe on the local machine.
pandoc --pdf-engine=wkhtmltopdf -s --css=convert.css -f markdown -t pdf 
--pdf-engine-opt="--enable-local-file-access" 
--include-in-header=header.html --variable=margin-top=0in 
--variable=margin-bottom=0.333in --variable=margin-left=0in 
--variable=margin-right=0in --dpi=200 input.md -o test.pdf 
--pdf-engine-opt="footer-html footer.html" 
*Pandoc version: *3.1.6

Also, does anyone know how to add a page number and footer to each 
generated page of the PDF using the wkhtmltopdf engine?

I think you need to separate this into two options (and you need the "--"),
i.e., something like this:

--pdf-engine-opt=--footer-html --pdf-engine-opt=footer.html

I have got page numbers etc. working with wkhtmltopdf. See the extended
help (-H) and look for "Footers And Headers". I modified the example
JavaScript.

However, I am looking to replace wkhtmltopdf with typst. More on this
anon...
