Well, if you export in PDF through Obsidian the highlighted text is 
rendered correctly but not if you use Pandoc. I do not export in PDF 
through Obsidian because then I would be bound to the style of the active 
theme, namely, I would see the PDF file with a black background (I use the 
Dark Mode), font size, spacing, margins, etc. of Obsidian's active theme.
