On another note, I thought it might be smart to define a bibtex file and then convert it to CSL yaml using pandoc. This would potentially save me the hassle of having to define the CSL YAML from scratch. Here’s my .bib file: @manual{software_guide, author = {{Organization Name}}, title = {Software Name User Guide}, date = {2023}, organization = {Software Company}, url = {https://www.example.com/software_guide.pdf}, } However when I try the following I get no output: pandoc --from bibtex --to markdown .\test.bib On Fri, 3 Mar 2023 at 12:55, A A wrote: > Thanks.
