Hi John, 

Thank you for the reply! 

I've been trying to get Bastien's Lua filter to work again and think I may 
have discovered the issue... Since the filter had always worked until 
recently, I suspected the problem may have something to do with a Pandoc 
update. So I uninstalled the most recent version of Pandoc and re-installed 
version 2.13. This appears to have fixed the issue and everything is 
working as intended! Not sure why the newer releases are incompatible or 
causing issues? Regardless, I saved the installation package for 2.13 for 
future use!

That said, it sounds like the best method of using Pandoc is with markdown?
