# Known Bugs

## User Feedback

- Chunking does not work.

- Table Support is partially implemented.

- Lists column management , half - fixed.

- When the user specifies a preamble or overrides some templates, there may exist undefined commands (e.g. \hypertarget without the hyperref package). Check.

- Extra spaces generated at the end of segtitle.

- \usepackage{fancybox} prevents toc and lof, even added by hand, to be generate: we get empty shells (try it directly in the TeX).

- biblioset is not supported (Workaround, need to work on this).

- biblioentry have funny final punctuation (dangling commas and the like).

- character not supported in the text Check out all iso-latin-1 while you're at it.

- Feature requests: . I would like the thing to handle languages in documents (article lang="fr". Right now I add by hand the needed.

- \usepackage for input encoding and active characters.

- Aesthetics remarks: sometimes you use {} and sometimes not in the preamble (\usepackage).

- itemizedlists inside tables will cause LaTeX errors unless column widths are specified (but tabularx is fine).

- Ordered lists don't support 'continues' (only 'enumerate').

- longtable/widetable

- Trouble with screen/verbatim environments inside tables, admonition.

- Alternative presentations for revhistory

- Empty hypertarget problem (paragraph breaks) with latex (as opposed to pdftex).

- Using a style file for makeindex can cause incorrect index generation if it involves changing the “quote” character. This may conflict with the makeindex `-g` option.

## Further Investigation Required

- Footnotes: if possible, improve upon the existing \catcode kludge for \urls within \footnotes. Do index links work inside footnotes? How can footnotes work in tables?

- Page-spanning floats in two-column reports. Add a Q&A.

- Handling of character entities. Make a user guide about this.

- authorgroup and copyright ranges -- localise rather than use hard-coded "x, y, and z".

- Provide a more compact \maketitle for articles.

- Support per-chapter ToC. Does LaTeX already provide a facility?

- Support for regular typefaces in literallayout.

- Support for subtitles.

- Support for tocbibind.

- LaTeX whitespace distance after acronyms/abbrevs that terminate with mid-sentence full stops.

- Parameterise remaining \sc usage.

- itemizedlist in varlistentry?

- Better hooks, in places where it can be provided (e.g. figures).

- Verbatim in tables

- \refs inside \hyperlinks

- Processing of PIs

- Persistent links for reference documentation.

- Different modes for long headers (e.g. two-per-page or chap on one page and section on the other.)

## Long-term Projects

- Documentation.

- Index support.

- xrefs to unusual types such as anchors.

- Use xmllint --valid on samples.

- Proper tables support.

- bibliomixed support.

- Componentinfo support. Support of abstracts in more places?

- Improved verbatim-type support.

- Q&A support (including hyperlinks).

- Support multiple section-level indices, etc. (Already have biblio support.)

- MathML support.

- Add chunking, so each chapter/part/etc... is created on a separate .tex file and manage the \input. (Also: automation of cover file generation.) May support $rootid attribute, though LaTeX hyperlinking won't work.
