    Pandoc can convert into ConTeXt which can produce PDF/A (tagging included) easily. Why this can't be done in one command like with xelatex, wkhtml2pdf and what else is supported, I don't know. Many programs can be used to cre

    When I started with django, the development server was a nuisance due to behaving totally different from real servers. That was where documentation at that time didn't help too much.
