Start in src/render/notebook/notebook-contributor-html.ts at renderHtmlNotebook and compare the preview render with the host and notebook renders. Reproduce the issue using the four-file project in the report, run quarto render, and check the three grep counts. Done means notebook-preview.html includes the custom format's from-myformat tag, matching the other pages.

Bug description
When a page embeds a notebook cell with {{< embed >}}, Quarto also builds a preview page for that notebook.
I noticed that if the project uses a custom format from an extension, the preview doesn't get that format's options.
The host page and the notebook's own page get them just fine.
With the built-in html format, the preview gets the same options as the other pages, which is what I'd expect.
I'm not completely sure this isn't intended, but it does feel like a bug.
I think it comes from renderHtmlNotebook in src/render/notebook/notebook-contributor-html.ts.
It renders the preview with formats: ["html"] and only carries over the host format's theme, so the rest of a custom format's options are left behind.
I ran into this while moving the quarto.org theme into a local extension.
The notebook previews there lost the header and footer scripts that the site's format adds.
Steps to reproduce
Here's a small project with four files, and none of them need a computation engine.
_quarto.yml:
project:
type: default
format: myformat-html
_extensions/myformat/_extension.yml:
title: My Format
author: Example
version: 1.0.0
contributes:
formats:
html:
include-in-header:
text: '<meta name="from-myformat" content="yes">'
index.qmd:
---
title: "Host page"
---
{{< embed notebook.ipynb#cell-hello >}}
notebook.ipynb:
{
"cells": [
{
"cell_type": "raw",
"metadata": {},
"source": [
"---\n",
"title: Notebook\n",
"---"
]
},
{
"cell_type": "code",
"execution_count": 1,
"id": "c1",
"metadata": {},
"outputs": [
{
"name": "stdout",
"output_type": "stream",
"text": [
"hello\n"
]
}
],
"source": [
"#| label: cell-hello\n",
"print(\"hello\")"
]
}
],
"metadata": {
"kernelspec": {
"display_name": "Python 3",
"language": "python",
"name": "python3"
}
},
"nbformat": 4,
"nbformat_minor": 5
}
Then render it and look for the tag in each page:
quarto render
grep -c 'from-myformat' index.html notebook.html notebook-preview.html
Actual behavior
The tag from the custom format is missing from the preview:
index.html:1
notebook.html:1
notebook-preview.html:0
Expected behavior
I'd expect the preview to get the custom format's options, like the other two pages:
index.html:1
notebook.html:1
notebook-preview.html:1
That's exactly what happens with the built-in format.
If you swap format: myformat-html in _quarto.yml for the following, all three pages have the tag:
format:
html:
include-in-header:
text: '<meta name="from-myformat" content="yes">'
Your environment
- IDE: none, I ran
quarto renderfrom the terminal. - OS: macOS 27.0.
- I also reproduced it with a development build of quarto-cli at
