On Sphinx 2.x, I want to put a content that changes depending on the output format.
In any source document, say, index.rst, add the following lines: .. role:: pdf(raw) :format: pdf .. role:: latex(raw) :format: latex .. role:: html(raw) :format: html .. |foo| replace:: :pdf:`PDF!` :latex:`LaTeX!` :html:`HTML!` I am |foo| I expect it shows *"I am HTML!"* when the output format is in HTML, *"I am LaTeX!"* if it's LaTeX (even after converting the product to PDF via pdflatex) and *"I am PDF!"* if it's PDF. I make the HTML version using make html and I see only *"I am HTML!"* in a web browser as I expect: [image: A make html result] <https://i.stack.imgur.com/rRHCc.png> Install rst2pdf. Put the following lines in conf.py: extensions = [ 'rst2pdf.pdfbuilder' ] pdf_documents = [( 'index', u'testRst2Pdf', u'Test Title', u'Sarah Author')] Make the PDF version with sphinx-build -b pdf ./source/ ./build/ I see *"I am PDF! LaTeX! HTML!"* that includes all the three items. [image: An rst2pdf result] <https://i.stack.imgur.com/XRMbx.png> Is there any way to get either *"I am PDF!"* or *"I am LaTeX!"* in the PDF file? *Note.* - Before reporting this behavior as a bug, someone help me check if it's unexpected behavior or as-designed. - This question is derived from the other I asked earlier: StackOverflow: "Sphinx: Use a different directive for a different output format". <https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60439235/sphinx-use-a-different-directive-for-a-different-output-format/60440546?noredirect=1#comment106925678_60440546> - This question is from StackOverflow: "Sphinx rst2pdf and role directives" <https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60444185>. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sphinx-users" group.
