Pandoc is a command-line tool for converting from one markup format to
|
|
another. It can read markdown and (subsets of) reStructuredText, HTML,
|
|
and LaTeX, and it can write plain text, markdown, reStructuredText,
|
|
HTML, LaTeX, ConTeXt, PDF, RTF, DocBook XML, OpenDocument XML, ODT, GNU
|
|
Texinfo, MediaWiki markup, groff man pages, EPUB ebooks, and S5 and
|
|
Slidy HTML slide shows.
|
|
|
|
Pandoc extends standard markdown syntax with footnotes, embedded LaTeX,
|
|
and other features. A compatibility mode is provided for those who
|
|
need a drop-in replacement for Markdown.pl. Included wrapper scripts
|
|
make it easy to convert markdown documents to PDF and to convert web
|
|
pages to markdown documents.
|
|
|
|
In contrast to existing tools for converting markdown to HTML, which
|
|
use regex substitutions, pandoc has a modular design: it consists of a
|
|
set of readers, which parse text in a given format and produce a native
|
|
representation of the document, and a set of writers, which convert
|
|
this native representation into a target format. Thus, adding an input
|
|
or output format requires only adding a reader or writer.
