Thank you. My defaults file was in the wrong place indeed. However, it seems to me that this instruction in the header of input files, as suggested in the pandoc-include manual:

pandoc-options:

  - filter=pandoc-include

remains useless; without an explicit call either in the defaults file or in command line nothing happens. I also tried to locate some documentation about "pandoc-options" in the manual (most recent edition, 2 days ago) but to no success. In R markdown there is a "pandoc_options" (with underscore), but I can't make sense of it in Pandoc-markdown.

Thanks again!

Try removing the '--':

filters:
  -  pandoc-include

But you should have got an error, so I'm wondering whether you were successfully including the defaults file (note that, unless you've set your data directory to $HOME, it won't be searched for in $HOME/defaults). For testing, I suggest putting it in the current directory.

I have successfully installed pandoc-include (https://pypi.org/project/pandoc-include/) and I run it calling the filter as usual:

pandoc —filter=pandoc-include test.md -o test.pdf

The filter is a python—panflute filter.

The pandoc-include documentation suggests to add this item to the document header:

pandoc-options:
  - --filter=pandoc-include

but it seems ineffective, since an explicit call of the filter in the command line is necessary.

I also added to ${HOME}/defaults/defaults file this line:

filters:
  -  --pandoc-include

but again nothing happens.
I’m sure I’m missing some basic step, and I am grateful in advance for your kind help.
