TeX primitives ignored in pandoc ?

I am learning how to use pandoc to convert very simple tex files to docx or 
html. 

But are TeX primitives (like \year) ignored in pandoc ? 
For instance 
\newcommand{\Year}[1]{\textcolor{red}{\advance\year by #1 
\the\year\advance\year by -#1}}(to have updated documents with years 
relative to the current year) is left blank in the pandoc output. 

You might have a straight yes/no answer.

If you do 'pandoc -f latex', unknown primitives (including this)
will be ignored.

If you do 'pandoc -f latex+raw_tex', they will be included as
raw tex.  This is ignored in most output formats, but included
in formats that allow tex.  For other formats, you can intercept
these elemnets with Lua filters and change them to something
more useful (such as a Str element containing the current year).
