I am trying to figure out the correct theme for the PDF output. I have successfully edited my custom admonition block extension for HTML output, but I am having trouble figuring out exactly how to make the theme.yml file so PDF output can match the custom admonition of the HTML.

I tried to follow the information here: https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor-extensions-lab/issues/9

but when I try to create a separate template, I am getting error messages. I don't have a problem just editing the default template either, but when I tried to do that by adding this into the admonition section:

  icon:
    question:
      name: fas-question
      stroke_color: 871452
      size: 24

(question is just my filler for now), I get errors in the output stating this:

asciidoctor: DEBUG: sample.adoc: line 5: unknown style for example block: QUESTION

(line 5 is line with the ==== after the [QUESTION] of the sample file).

I have tried adding it to a custom style, but was having trouble figuring out how to call it, and when I thought I did, I got a lot more errors since the only thing in it was the admonition block, so I went back to editing the default (again, this is fine for my purposes), but always get this or some other error message.

I am at a loss as to how to edit the default template (or create my own and to call it since that isn't clear either) so I can define the new admonition styles.
