depapel vs Pandoc
Compare depapel with Pandoc for Markdown exports. Use depapel for no-install web PDF and DOCX conversion, and Pandoc for local automation, filters, templates, and broad format coverage.
Use depapel when
- You want a no-install web editor for PDF or DOCX export.
- You need a quick handoff document from Markdown, a README, or AI-generated Markdown.
- You want built-in themes, syntax highlighting, Git URL import, Mermaid rendering, and product-backed output proof.
- You prefer product proof over local renderer setup.
Use Pandoc when
- You need local offline automation, filters, citations, templates, or many output formats.
- Your workflow already standardizes on a scripted Pandoc build.
- You need deep publishing customization beyond depapel's current web surface.
Decision points
depapel emphasizes no-install PDF and DOCX export, Git file import, themes, syntax highlighting, Mermaid, and proof artifacts. Pandoc is stronger for local CLI automation, filters, templates, citations, and broad multi-format publishing.
Limitation
depapel should not replace Pandoc when your team needs offline builds, custom filters, citation processing, template-heavy publishing, or broad format coverage.
