Introduction

amsthm provide a syntax to use amsthm environments in pandoc, with output in LaTeX and HTML.

Usage

From makefile:

tests/model-target.md: tests/model-source.md
    pandoc -F amsthm $< -o $@
tests/model-latex.tex: tests/model-source.md
    pandoc -F amsthm $< -o $@ --top-level-division=chapter --toc -N
tests/model-latex.pdf: tests/model-source.md
    pandoc -F amsthm $< -o $@ --top-level-division=chapter --toc -N
tests/model-html.html: tests/model-source.md
    pandoc -F amsthm $< -o $@ --toc -N -s

Syntax

See tests/model-source.md (or next page in documentation site) for an example.

Tips

• Use -N, --number-sections to enable numbering in pandoc. This is mandatory for LaTeX output.
• To match LaTeX and non-LaTeX output numbering scheme, match these 2 settings manually
  • LaTeX output: pandoc’s cli flag --top-level-division=[section|chapter|part] and the use of parent_counter in pandoc-amsthm
  • non-LaTeX output: counter_depth in pandoc-amsthm

Supported pandoc versions

pandoc versioning semantics is MAJOR.MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH and panflute’s is MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH. Below we shows matching versions of pandoc that panflute supports, in descending order. Only major version is shown as long as the minor versions doesn’t matter.

Version Matching [1]

pandoc-amsthm	panflute version	supported pandoc versions	supported pandoc API versions
2.0.0	2.1.3	2.14.0.3–2.17.x	1.22–1.22.1

[1]	For pandoc API verion, check https://hackage.haskell.org/package/pandoc for pandoc-types, which is the same thing.
