Flextable in Quarto 1.4 produces corrupt documents

[BMC1986]

Firstly, great to see the crossrefs of Quarto being implemented.

However, now when rendering to quarto with a flextable object I get a corrupt document with the warning of "Word found unreadable content ...". The contents all seem fine if you recover the doc.

Cann reproduce here.

Sorry, we did not change anything about Word quarto captions, we stopped doing anything about it a long time ago. If you look at the code, you can check it: https://github.com/davidgohel/flextable/blob/master/R/printers.R#L275

For all related "Quarto caption" related issues:

• we can't do anything about it, Quarto itself is supposed to do it
• we only are looking at the quarto 1.3, when 1.4 will be almost released we will look at it, etc. It seems to me Quarto 1.4 is far from being ready:

• the quarto product is actively developed and evolve quickly since more than 2 years now, let's be patient as the team advised.

  You should instead open an issue in Quarto repo.

This issue can be closed, it is now working as expected with Quarto 1.4.549
