All,

I use BBEdit and Pandoc in tandem to create PDFs, ePubs, and HTML versions of a magazine that I edit.

All my editing is performed in BBEdit and all subsequent formatting is performed in Pandoc using the command line or scripts.

Recently, I ran across an article

[Adding Pandoc Arguments to BBEdit](https://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2021/05/13/adding-pandoc-arguments-in-bbedit/)

The author recommended the following steps:

> I  spent an hour reading the Pandoc man page (just kidding, I was actually skimming, that’s the only way I could possibly get through all that in an hour) and found the --no-highlight option. Perfect! So I dropped into Preferences > Languages > Language-specific settings:Markdown > Markdown, set the “Markdown processor” dropdown to “Custom”, and filled in the following:

> Command pandoc

> Arguments --no-highlight

I attempted to replicate these settings in my BBEdit preferences.  Here is a screenshot of the changes that I made.  Does it look like I entered the Custom info correctly?

Thanks in advance!

Yours,

Mark Mayberry
