We're just keeping a list of header formats that different languages use
as their default styles. At the moment, we have English, German, Danish,
and French. We can continue to add to this.
This is simpler than parsing the styles file, and perhaps less
error-prone, since there seems to be some variations, even within a
language, of how a style file will define headers.
When users number their headers, Word understands that as a single item
enumerated list. We make the assumption that such a list is, in fact, a header.
Currently, pandoc has hard-coded the following in order to make tight lists in
LaTeX:
```hs
text "\\itemsep1pt\\parskip0pt\\parsep0pt"
```
Which is fine, but does not allow customizations. For example, the `memoir`
class already has a `\tightlist` declaration for this purpose:
```tex
\newcommand{\tightlist}{%
\setlength{\itemsep}{0pt}\setlength{\parskip}{0pt}}
```
I'm proposing to use a similar solution:
```diff
@@ In Writers/LaTeX.hs:
-then text "\\itemsep1pt\\parskip0pt\\parsep0pt"
+then text "\\tightlist"
@@ In templates/default.latex:
+\newcommand{\tightlist}{%
+ \setlength{\itemsep}{1pt}\setlength{\parskip}{0pt}\setlength{\parsep}{0pt}}
```
This allows us to customize the tightness to our needs.
Backward Compatibility
If a person is using a custom LaTeX template (not based upon the `memoir`
class), the `\tightlist` declaration must be added.
Because of the built-in line skip, LaTeX can't handle a section header
as the first element in a list item. (To be precise, it can't handle it
if the list immediately follows a section header, but the instance is
rare enough that we can afford to be a bit more general). This puts a
non-breaking space before the header to solve this problem. We won't see
this space, since the header skips a line before printing anyway.
The output is ugly in LaTeX and this structure seems like it should
probably be avoided. But it is valid HTML and native pandoc, so we
should have some sort of typesettable representation in LaTeX.
Previously text that ended a div would be parsed as Plain
unless there was a blank line before the closing div tag.
Test case:
<div class="first">
This is a paragraph.
This is another paragraph.
</div>
Closes#1591.
We can now handle all different alignment types, for simple
tables only (no captions, no relative widths, cell contents just
plain inlines). Other tables are still handled using raw HTML.
Addresses #1585 as far as it can be addresssed, I believe.
This makes to docx reader's native output fit with the way the markdown
reader understands its markdown output. Ie, as far as table cells go:
docx -> native == docx -> native -> markdown -> native
(This identity isn't true for other things outside of table cells, of
course).
Currently, pandoc has hard-coded the following in order to make horizontal
rules in LaTeX:
```hs
"\\begin{center}\\rule{3in}{0.4pt}\\end{center}"
```
Which is fine, but does not allow customizations. It also does not take into
consideration the current line width.
I'm proposing this change:
```diff
@@ In Writers/LaTeX.hs:
-"\\begin{center}\\rule{3in}{0.4pt}\\end{center}"
+"\\begin{center}\\rule{0.5\\linewidth}{\\linethickness}\\end{center}"
```
Also, if page-progression-direction not specified in metadata,
don't include the attribute even in EPUB3; not including it is
the same as including it with the value "default", as we did before.
Closes#1550.
Previously a section like this would be enclosed in a paragraph,
with RawInline for the video tags (since video is a tag that can
be either block or inline):
<video controls="controls">
<source src="../videos/test.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
<source src="../videos/test.webm" type="video/webm" />
<p>
The videos can not be played back on your system.<br/>
Try viewing on Youtube (requires Internet connection):
<a href="http://youtu.be/etE5urBps_w">Relative Velocity on
Youtube</a>.
</p>
</video>
This change will cause the video and source tags to be parsed
as RawBlock instead, giving better output.
The general change is this: when we're parsing a "plain" sequence
of inlines, we don't parse anything that COULD be a block-level tag.
