) contained
in an admonition (e.g. <blockquote

), the line numbers are rendered
completely outside the listing, at the left of the listing block. Did not find a workaround for what seems to be a FOP bug. There is no such problem with other XSL-FO processors (e.g. RenderX XEP, XMLmind XSL-FO Converter). This problem is not a regression of FOP 2.6. It was already there with older versions of FOP.

head
of a source HTML page were not copied to the
output file. Example, source HTML page equations.html
,
which is part of manual.ebook
, contains MathML equations
and thus requires the use of the MathJax support script:
<head> ... <script async="async" src="https://cdn.mathjax.org/mathjax/latest/MathJax.js?config=MML_CHTML" type="text/javascript"></script> </head>
Command ebookc -f html1 manual.ebook
out/manual.html
did not create an out/manual.html
file making used of the MathJax support script. This prevented
out/manual.html
to be correctly displayed in any Web
browser other than Firefox (which natively supports MathML).
Fixed a
bug which occurred when parsing a certain combination of ebookc
command-line arguments.

on a Western PC). In previous
version of ebookc, this default encoding was UTF-8
whatever
the platform. If you want to explicitly specify the encoding of a
Markdown file, please save your file with a UTF-8
or
UTF-16
BOM or add an
encoding directive inside a comment anywhere at the beginning
of your file. Example:<!-- -*- coding: iso-8859-1 -*- --> Heading ======= ## Sub-heading Paragraphs are separated by a blank line.
The above example should work fine because ebookc now
understands the GNU Emacs file variable called
"coding
".

class="role-ADMONITION"
) are converted to RTF, WML,
DOCX and ODT. This enhancement makes use of XMLmind XSL-FO Converter v6 new extension
attribute xfc:render-as-table

previous behavior, pass new XSLT stylesheet parameter -p xfc-render-as-table ""

") to ebookc

Incompatibilities:
load.markdown.more-extensions

passed to fo2rtf
. This option is needed to circumvent an
obscure bug in the RTF loader of MS-Word, which does not handle table
cell padding tags correctly.Enhancements:
Many “Markdown dialects” and many Markdown syntax extensions are supported, thanks to flexmark-java, the software component used to implement Markdown support in ebookc.
However for this to work, you must be using a Java 1.8+ runtime. More information in Markdown support.
<pre class="role-listing-XXX">
, tab
characters are now expanded by default to up to 8 space characters.
“Tab stops” may be controlled using new
-tabN
specification. Example:
<pre class="role-listing-1-java-tab4">
means expand
tabs to up to 4 space characters in this line-numbered Java listing.
Other example: <pre class="role-listing-tab0-shell">
means: do not replace tabs in this Bourne shell listing. More
