Hi!
I need to use custom variables for my DOCX file content created from
Markdown file.
Tried to insert DOC_NAME variable in "--reference-doc" template file both
using LibreOffice and MS Office in document header. Then I redefine this
variable according to pandoc man page and convert Markdown to DOCX using
this command line:
$ pandoc -s -V DOC_NAME=DOCUMENT1 --columns 10
--reference-doc=template.docx -s -f markdown -t docx main.md -o main.docx
But when I open main.docx I see variable values that was set in office
document editor in template.docx header, not what was set in command line.
E.g. I set variable DOC_NAME=doc1 in office and see it in resulting file,
not the "DOCUMENT1" value that was set in command line.
Could anybody help me with setting custom variables?

Variables in pandoc just affect template resolution,
and docx doesn't use templates.
Reference.docx is a different concept.
See however #5215, which might offer a path forward in
the future.

Thanks for answer. I've read comments from issue that you've referenced.

custom docx properties
I don't fully understand this thing. "Pandoc properties" - is it pandoc
variables, which are specified using -V command line option? "docx
properties" - is it same as LibreOffice "fields"?

Hi Dmitriy.
It's probably referring to pandoc metadata (-M command line option, or YAML
block in your markdown).
Support for this might come soon
(see https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/pull/5252 )
You'll be able to access these properties with the DocProperty field in
Word. You can use this for instance to prepare a common template
(--reference-doc) with text in header/footer that will use the value of one
or more such metadata.
