I've been using pandoc for a while now, but did not know that it could handle docx (I should probably read through the manual again!).

Does it handle embedded pictures well?

It handles them pretty ok when converting to pdf, obviously not converting them to markdown.
Thank you! This has been useful to know, and I now have some amount of fiddling around with pandoc and docx files on my TODO list :)
If you do I highly recommend looking into using a reference doc. I struggled to make the markdown -> docx conversion until I set a few reference docs up to keep consistent style.
