 This way, any future breaking changes in pandoc will not affect your workflow.
 You can find out whatever the latest released docker image is on [docker hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/pandoc/core/tags).
 You should avoid specifying *no* tag or the `latest` tag -- these will float to the latest image and will expose your workflow to potentially breaking changes.
