Note that odt
, docx
, and epub
output will not be directed to stdout unless forced with -o -
.
Extensions can be individually enabled or disabled by appending +EXTENSION
or -EXTENSION
to the format name. See Extensions below, for a list of extensions and their names. See --list-output-formats
and --list-extensions
, below.
-o
FILE, --output=
FILE
Write output to FILE instead of stdout. If FILE is -
, output will go to stdout, even if a non-textual format (docx
, odt
, epub2
, epub3
) is specified.
--data-dir=
DIRECTORY
Specify the user data directory to search for pandoc data files. If this option is not specified, the default user data directory will be used. On *nix and macOS systems this will be the pandoc
subdirectory of the XDG data directory (by default, $HOME/.local/share
, overridable by setting the XDG_DATA_HOME
environment variable). If that directory does not exist, $HOME/.pandoc
will be used (for backwards compatibility). In Windows the default user data directory is C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\pandoc
. You can find the default user data directory on your system by looking at the output of pandoc --version
. A reference.odt
, reference.docx
, epub.css
, templates
, slidy
, slideous
, or s5
directory placed in this directory will override pandoc's normal defaults.
--bash-completion
Generate a bash completion script. To enable bash completion with pandoc, add this to your .bashrc
:
eval "$(pandoc --bash-completion)"
--verbose
Give verbose debugging output. Currently this only has an effect with PDF output.
--quiet
Suppress warning messages.
--fail-if-warnings
Exit with error status if there are any warnings.
--log=
FILE
Write log messages in machine-readable JSON format to FILE. All messages above DEBUG level will be written, regardless of verbosity settings (--verbose
, --quiet
).
--list-input-formats
List supported input formats, one per line.
--list-output-formats
List supported output formats, one per line.
--list-extensions
[=
FORMAT]
List supported extensions, one per line, preceded by a +
or -
indicating whether it is enabled by default in FORMAT. If FORMAT is not specified, defaults for pandoc's Markdown are given.
--list-highlight-languages
List supported languages for syntax highlighting, one per line.
--list-highlight-styles
List supported styles for syntax highlighting, one per line. See --highlight-style
.
-v
, --version
Print version.
-h
, --help
Show usage message.
