Morning,

I am having trouble getting pandoc to convert underbrace either into Word 
or out of Word. I wondered if there is either something I am doing wrong, 
whether this is a known problem (I can't find a report) or if there is a 
work round for converting into Word. 

If I try to convert:
\[
\underbrace{xxx\ldots xx}_n
\]
for instance then what I get in Word (linear format) is:
((xxx…xx)┬⏟)┬n
which does not render as a stretched underbrace.

I would expect to get:
⏟(xxx…xx)┬n
which is typed directly into Word as \underbrace(xxx\ldots xx)_n (then 
space to trigger). You get the same linear interpretation if you use the 
mouse to create the structure.

The above is the direction I am interested in. I am actually converting 
from MathML and see the same behaviour as in the cut down test of md or tex 
to docx I have explained above. 

For completeness I tried to convert in the other direction. Starting from 
the above structure in Word I end up with:
\[\underset{n}{}\]
which has not only lost the xxx...xx but underbrace has become underset 
which is not the same thing. 

Does anyone know anything more about this? 

Many thanks,
Emma
