  2. If not installed: Follow the installation instructions provided
  3. Convert: Run the conversion with input and output files
  4. Present result: Provide the converted file to the user

Installation (if needed)

The script provides installation guidance, but here's a summary:

# macOS
brew install pandoc

# Ubuntu/Debian  
sudo apt-get install pandoc

# For PDF output, also install LaTeX:
# macOS: brew install --cask mactex-no-gui
# Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install texlive-xetex

Limitations

  • CSV/TSV/XLSX: Input only (converts to tables in other formats)
  • PDF output: Requires LaTeX installation
  • PPTX: Text extraction works; complex layouts may simplify
  • Complex formatting: Some features may not transfer between formats
