Examples and reproduction

Previously we created documents using Google Docs. We are using some filters and templating which you can see here.

We are running it with:

pandoc -s --quiet --from=docx --to=html \
    --output=test/<test-dir>/none/expected.html --template=src/template.html \
    test/<test-dir>/input.docx

Examples

Example input	Example output (using filters as defined above)
test/libreoffice-title-subtitle-headings-image-lists-quote-preformatted-text-docx	test/libreoffice-title-subtitle-headings-image-lists-quote-preformatted-text-docx/none/expected.html

Explanation on examples

Following issues are visible:

Style quotation is not (properly) implemented.
Style preformatted is not (properly) implemented

The style name for the quote is "Quotations". The style name for the preformatted text is "Preformatted Text". We can probably fix this by adding these to the lists at src/Text/Pandoc/Readers/Docx.hs l. 241-249 isCodeDiv, isBlockQuote
