Dear all,

I explore the separation of layout and data to inspire my colleagues in a 
public institution.

I use markdown for the text and the YAML header for metadata like 
recipients etc.
I have a very nice output as a PDF (via latex already).

Now, I would like to take the same input and generate an ODT for e.g. last 
minute changes by the hierarchy.

I found already out that I can use in the reference.odt custom fields in 
the header and footer and that I can configure header and footer for 1st 
and other pages separately.

However, I still have a few problems. Can you advise me?


   1. How can I add programatically (like in latex) the closure and 
   signature text at the end of the text?
   2. How can I pass metadata fields with line breaks (recpient address) to 
   the odt? Custom fields do not keep line breaks.
   3. How can I pass metadata arrays/hashes to the odt? Currently, they are 
   not exported to custom fields.

I could of course avoid arrays and hashes, but this would remove much 
flexibility and the nice metadata structure.

Best,
Robert
