How to convert Markdown to RTF and keep the headings using Pandoc?

When I convert the following markdown to .docx

# Header lvl 1

## Header lvl 2
Some text

## Another Header lvl 2

Some different text


The headings are showing properly when I open the .docx file. I'm using the 
following arguments `-f native -s -o ${outputPath} -t docx`.

When converting to .rtf though, with `-f native -s -o ${outputPath} -t rtf` 
 
, the headings aren't visible in the produced .rtf file; they show as 
normal body style text.

Is there a way to force pandoc to keep the headings in the .rtf, the same 
way it does in .docx?

Thank you.

If you're converting from markdown, you should use -f markdown,
not -f native.  So that confused me.

But headings should work properly in rtf.  Here is what I
get when I convert your sample to rtf (looking at the rtf
with a regular text editor):

{\rtf1\ansi\deff0{\fonttbl{\f0 \fswiss Helvetica;}{\f1 \fmodern Courier;}}
{\colortbl;\red255\green0\blue0;\red0\green0\blue255;}
\widowctrl\hyphauto
 
{\pard \ql \f0 \sa180 \li0 \fi0 \outlinelevel0 \b \fs36 Header lvl 1\par}
{\pard \ql \f0 \sa180 \li0 \fi0 \outlinelevel1 \b \fs32 Header lvl 2\par}
{\pard \ql \f0 \sa180 \li0 \fi0 Some text\par}
{\pard \ql \f0 \sa180 \li0 \fi0 \outlinelevel1 \b \fs32 Another Header lvl 2\par}
}

As you can see, this includes font size switching commands.
Do you get the same thing?
