I'm trying this again, on a Mac instead of Windows. I managed to get
ox-pandoc working. (It now displays an org export menu too big to fit on
my screen, and I can't figure out how to scroll it.)
When I try to export to docbook via pandoc (C-c C-e p d), I get
Running pandoc with args: (-f org -t docbook5 -o /Users/peterdavis/Dropbox/HMH/my_file.dbk --parse-raw --mathjax --standalone /Users/peterdavis/Dropbox/HMH/my_file.tmp3362h9T.org)
Error occured.
pandoc: Unknown writer: docbook5
Any guesses? Is there something additional I need to install in pandoc?
Thanks!
