| Pandoc 3.9 Feb 4, 2026 |
Add support for compiling pandoc to WASM. (To build, make pandoc.wasm.) A stanza in cabal.project contains the necessary build modifications. We owe this almost entirely to TerrorJack, who created the original proof of context and came up with the necessary build flags and patches to some dependencies. pandoc.wasm has almost all the power of regular pandoc. The main limitations is that it operates in a WASM sandbox and thus cannot use HTTP to fetch resources and cannot run system commands. As a result, JSON filters cannot be used, --embed-resources works only with resources that have been explicitly provided in the WASM sandbox, and PDFs cannot be produced (since that requires running external commands). However, Lua filters can be used, as long as they do not run system commands. A JavaScript bridge module, wasm/pandoc.js, is provided; this handles the setup necessary to run pandoc.wasm in a browser. In addition, a full-featured GUI interface is provided in the wasm subdirectory. make serve from that directory and it will run locally, or visit https://pandoc.org/app. Note that once the relevant code has been downloaded by the browser, it runs entirely in the browser, and the conversions never touch a server. The GUI was developed in interaction with Claude Code. This app includes a WASM version of Typst and can produce PDF output via Typst. Defaults files may now be either JSON or YAML (though a .yaml extension will still be assumed if the file has no extension). The structure of a JSON defaults file is isomorphic to that of a YAML defaults file. Variable expansion now works even for the defaults field of defaults files (#8024, Jacob Larkin). --extract-media will now create a zip archive containing the media (instead of a directory) if the path provided has a .zip extension. Processing with --citeproc is now affected by a reset-citation-positions class on headings. When the reset-citation-positions class is added to a top-level heading, --citeproc will reset positi |

HTML reader: allow blank space between open and close iframe. RTF reader: improve hyperlink parsing Docx writer: properly handle nested comment spans RST writer: Don’t use simple tables with RowSpans Typst writer: Escape open paren after non-space. This fixes an issue that occurs if an open paren comes right after e.g. #strong[test]. Typst template: ensure that title block is properly centered. LaTeX writer/template: small fix for unnumbered tables for compatibility with older LaTeX installations MANUAL.txt: Fixed missing backtick Correct anchor references to pandoc.text module documentation Fixed golden test regeneration in Docx reader test. Allow unicode-data 0.8. Use citeproc 0.11. This fixes a significant performance regression in pandoc 3.8, which was due to a rewrite of the default chicago-author-date.csl file. Performance with --citeproc is now on par with what we had in pandoc 3.7, even with the revised Chicago styles. Org reader: Parse parameter lists on unknown blocks (#11188, Albert Krewinkel). The reader tries to parse the rest of the opening line of a block, e.g., #+begin_myblock …, as a parameters list. It first assumes that the parameters are in lisp-style (:key value), then alternatively tries to read python-style key-value pairs (key=value) and falls back to reading the entire remaining line as a single parameter attribute. Add support for dynamic blocks. Docx writer: properly handle nested comment spans RST writer: Don’t use simple tables with RowSpans Typst writer: Escape open paren after non-space. This fixes an issue that occurs if an open paren comes right after e.g. #strong[test]. Typst template: ensure that title block is properly centered LaTeX writer/template: small fix for unnumbered tables for compatibility with older LaTeX installations MANUAL.txt: Fixed missing backtick Correct anchor references to pandoc.text module documentation Fixed golden test regeneration in Docx reader test.

Markdown reader/writer: implement new table_attributes extension (#10884). When table_attributes is enabled (as it is by default for pandoc’s Markdown), attributes can be attached to a table by including them at the end of the caption. Previously the writer would emit an identifier in this position, but the reader didn’t handle it. Now arbitrary attributes are allowed, and they work in both the reader and writer. Typst writer: don’t add superfluous semicolons (#11196). Previously we added semicolons after inline commands not followed by spaces, but mainly this was to deal with one issue: the presence of a semicolon after an inline command, which would be swallowed as a command separator (#9252). This commits adopts an approach that should avoid so many superfluous semicolons: it escapes semicolons that might come right after a command. Typst template: fix 3.8 regression in which links disappear (#11194). A template change in 3.8 added a show rule for links which causes them to disappear except in special cases. Text.Pandoc.Parsing: rewrite oneOfStrings more efficiently. LaTeX writer: Fix strikeout in links (#11192, Tuong Nguyen Manh). As in #1294 url and href need to be protected inside an mbox for soul commands. Text.Pandoc.Extensions: Add Ext_table_attributes constructor for Extension [API change]. Use released texmath 0.13.0.1. Update FSF contact information in COPYING (#11183, Bensun Muite). MANUAL.txt: remove some redundancy (#11178, Reuben Thomas). |
