In Asciidoctor PDF, you cannot use subs on a source block (when the source-highlighter attribute is also set). You can use it on a listing or literal block, but not a source block. The way syntax / source highlighting in done in the PDF converter is fundamentally incompatible with the subs processing. I have yet to find a way around this limitation.

Hello - Thanks to everyone who has made Asciidoc possible. I'm really enjoying this way of writing.

I enlarged and bolded a portion of a source block, but I can't seem to escape it properly for Asciidoctor-PDF:

[source, sh, subs = "specialchars, quotes"]
----
normal code
[.big]*large and bold code*
normal code
----

No problems with HTML output, but in Asciidoctor-PDF output it passes the resulting HTML straight through:

normal code
<strong class="big">large and bold code</strong>
normal code

Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks,

Dusty
