Re: Markdown/HTML: Convert CSS styles to ODT styles (enhancement)

[Kelly Price <strredwolf-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>]

Okay, so before I go completely crazy, following the DOCX route.
Using Pandoc 2.9.2.1 currently (it's in Ubuntu's repos).
custom-ref.docx file has the style definition for "Rose" and it's
going through to the text document.  Using:

pandoc --reference-doc=custom-ref.docx test.md -f
'markdown_phpextra+bracketed_spans' -t docx -o test.docx

test.md has:

[Good evening, Drake.]{custom-style="Rose"}

When I run it, the style does not get applied to the bracketed text.  Any ideas?

You simply get a copy of the default reference doc with `pandoc -o custom-reference.docx --print-default- data-file reference.docx`, add a Rose style to `custom-reference.docx`, and give a `custom-style=Rose` attribute in Markdown to colored text.
