What happens to your file
pandoc parses the HTML into its own document model and writes ODT from it. Because it works on structure — headings, lists, emphasis, links — rather than on appearance, the output is a real ODT document rather than a screenshot of one.
Settings this conversion runs with
| Engine | pandoc |
|---|---|
| Works on | Document structure, not page appearance |
What changes
- Structure survives; precise visual styling does not. Custom CSS, exact fonts, and hand-tuned spacing are re-expressed in the target format's own conventions.
- Only what is in the HTML itself converts. Content a page loads with JavaScript, and anything behind a login, is not there to convert.
