Re: [O] Pandoc users, how do you use it with org-mode, and why?

[Alan L Tyree]

I'm using org-mode for a lengthy book. My editor has graciously agreed to edit the raw ord-mode files, thus eliminating yet another source of re-introduced errors.

However, the publisher asks her to format in Word, so after all the editing is done, I need to convert to Word. Pandoc seems a good choice:

org -> latex -> docx: the first step normal org export, the second step Pandoc.

It is good EXCEPT my book contains many, many cross references. In docx they come out looking like:

"see [sec-3-4-2]" when I want them to look like "see 3.4.2".

I'm still on a steep part of the learning curve, so don't know if Pandoc can be tweaked to fix this. I have also tried oolatex which is a part of the tex4ht suite. It does the right thing on cross references, but has some other minor problems.

I have also used Pandoc to convert a friends Markdown to ePub. Slick and nice.

Cheers,
Alan

Hi,

Lately been hearing great things about Pandoc's ability to export to ebook formats and more. 

Folks that use both Pandoc and org-mode: how do you use them together, and why?

Kind regards,
