The handling of formats can be tweaked by enabling or disabling format extensions. Running

pandoc --list-extensions=my_format

lists available extensions and their default status. Extensions are enabled by prefixing them with `+`, and disable with `-`:

pandoc --from my_format+enabled_extension-disabled_extension

Example: disable the smart handling of quotes, ellipses, etc in #Markdown with

pandoc --from=markdown-smart

#pandoc #formatExtension
