Multiple errors and dysfunctional .tex file

[jfernandz]

When I convert my MWE to a .tex file and then I try to produce a .pdf output with xelatex I'm getting a lot of errors which apparently point to a malformed .tex file. I don't know if this is related with my xetex install or the asciidoctor-latex itself. This is my MWE

I've already seen several issues mentioning lack of support for asterisk lists or tables and fontspec/pdflatex problems. I would say there is also bad support for \[\] enclosures and nested tables. Anyway ... this is the xelatex output when I try to produce the .pdf file (basically the log):

latex-example.log

It seems to have a few syntax errors. When I try to use pdflatex instead I cannot use fontspec as #79 suggests. And also I need to switch the \[\] enclosure for a $$ one. In fact, the tabular equivalent environment produced in .tex file is this one

\admonition{NOTE}{Here you have a note.}
\begin{example}
\begin{center}
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|}
\hline
(Test) \[X_nY_m\] & \ & \ \\ 
\hline
\end{tabular}
\end{center}
\end{example}

Which I think is far to be what it should be (actually the \(\) are not being recognised either). The nested table and asterisk list is not rendered at all.

I would like a full support for all those features, otherwise I'm not sure if this asciidoctor-latex could be considered as fully functional.

After a few conversations in ascidoctor-mathematical repo I've realised \[\] and \(\) are not part of asciidoc syntax. That's because I've modified and extended my MWE a little bit.

.Now a ordered list

I'm trying to test stem macros and blocks in different situations. Particularly I'm getting this document body for the .tex file after give the .adoc file to asciidoctor-latex.

Obviously there a malformed body as you can see, there lack a lot of math expressions originally included in the .adoc file, mainly those inside table; but also the in-line math in the first item in the ordered list.
