Support for bookmarks and fields (references, forms) in docx reader #6781
Comments
I've created a test document with custom properties, a bookmark and a link to the bookmark: The <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>

I'm also missing this. As a heavy user of custom fields for template ODT files, converting them correctly in Pandoc would be very useful. Currently those fields are simply blank, making the converted documents unusable for me. |
There is currently no support for converting bookmarks or fields (references, forms) from
docx
tomarkdown
. The primary use case for this is the ability to embedded invisible metadata into specificdocx
segments and enable bidirectional collaboration betweendocx
andmarkdown
users.Docx's invisible metadata options are more limited than markdown's and include:
a) bookmarks
b) custom properties
c) fields (references, forms - including XML bound ones)
Since bookmark creation is already implemented for conversion from
markdown
todocx
(e.g.[This is a bookmark in docx]{#bookmark1}
), it perhaps makes most sense for that to also be the first candidate for reader implementation. In addition, bookmarks also exist in other formats.Combination of bookmarks and custom properties (e.g. as already discussed in #3034) would enable lossless conversion between
docx
andmarkdown
. By using this combination one could transfer everything not supported bydocx
as custom properties linked to bookmarks' location and by that enable almost perfect reverse operation without sourcemarkdown
document.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
