Does anyone have a good setup/configuration for converting documents to Obsidian-flavored markdown with Pandoc? I’ve been fiddling with it for a few hours but can’t seem to get everything right:
- Obsidian markdown doesn’t support
^superscript^
. I can get Pandoc to usesup
instead by allowingraw_html
, but then… - Image embeds don’t work. Pandoc wants to use
img
for some reason, and no matter what relative src I use the image just won’t show up.
I could fix all of this by running the files through a linter of some sort, but I feel like I’m missing something. Surely someone must have had these issues before me, right?
I’ve done something like this converting html to obsidian md. I interrogated gpt 3.5 with specifically what I needed to accomplish and went from there. If you can’t accomplish a formatting quirk in the same conversion process you might run iterative processes to accomplish them after conversion. I’ve done similar with BBEdit and vs code basically to find and replace across a lot of documents.
Oh wait I think you want to expressly use pandoc, my bad
