I use this Lua filter to clean up when I convert from DOCX.

``````lua
local function handler (elem)
-- Get the length of the content
len = #elem.content
-- Check that the content isn't empty
if 0 < len then
-- Is the last child a space?
if 'Space' == elem.content[len].tag then
-- Remove the space (last child)
elem.content:remove()
-- Return a space *after* the element
return { elem, pandoc.Space() }
end
end
return nil
end

return {
{
Emph = handler,
Strong = handler,
Strikeout = handler,
SmallCaps = handler,
Underline = handler,
Span = handler,
Link = handler,
}
}

I am a bit sloppy typing italics in my wordprocessor, and generally only turn off the italics after I hit the space at the end of the word, so I end up with markdown output that looks like this (when I convert from rtf to md):

Strictly speaking the qualities that are imposed by the *logos *of a certain thing are the *activities *of the *logos*

This looks ugly when I open it up in Emacs etc. I can fix these with regex replace in Emacs; but I thought pandoc had normalization by default now, which is supposed to fix these kinds of stylistic errors? I tried passing the markdown again through pandoc, to generate markdown, but it made no difference.
