Pandoc is a free, open-source command-line tool and Haskell library that converts documents between a wide variety of markup and file formats, including Markdown, HTML, LaTeX, Word, PDF, and many more. It supports advanced features such as automatic citations, bibliography generation, math rendering, and custom Lua-based readers and writers. Users can extend it via filters and templates to suit a wide range of document workflows.
