OK, I think I found the problem....

in quexmlpdf.php the following line pulls the style information from the style-file.
$this->style = $controller->render('/admin/export/quexmlpdf_view','',true);

Unfortunately, in LS 2.05 there are some css/JS files registered using e.g. registerCssFile() in CClientscript.php.

Now, together with the style information from the style-file comes alist of these registered files and some other stuff created by the renderer. The whole style variable looks like this on my system:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://localhost/github/limesurvey/tmp/assets/b52d3e57/css/bootstrap.min.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://localhost/github/limesurvey/tmp/assets/b52d3e57/css/bootstrap-yii.css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="/github/limesurvey/third_party/jquery/jquery-1.10.2.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://localhost/github/limesurvey/tmp/assets/b52d3e57/js/bootstrap.bootbox.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://localhost/github/limesurvey/tmp/assets/b52d3e57/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/github/limesurvey/scripts/admin/admin_core.js"></script>
<style>
td.questionTitle {font-weight:bold; font-size:12pt;}
td.questionTitleSkipTo {font-weight:bold; font-size:16pt;}
td.questionText {font-weight:bold; font-size:12pt;}
td.questionSpecifier {font-weight:normal; font-size:12pt;}
td.vasLabel {font-weight:bold; font-size:10pt; text-align:center;}
td.questionHelp {font-weight:normal; text-align:right; font-style:italic; font-size:8pt;}
td.questionHelpAfter {text-align:center; font-weight:bold; font-size:10pt;}
td.questionHelpBefore {text-align:center; font-weight:bold; font-size:12pt;}
td.responseAboveText {font-weight:normal; font-style:normal; text-align:left; font-size:12pt;}
span.sectionTitle {font-size:18pt; font-weight:bold;}
span.sectionDescription {font-size:14pt; font-weight:bold;}
div.sectionInfo {font-style:normal; font-size:10pt; text-align:left; font-weight:normal;}
td.questionnaireInfo {font-size:16pt; text-align:center; font-weight:bold;}
</style>
<script type="text/javascript">
/<![CDATA[/
jQuery('a[rel="tooltip"]').tooltip();
jQuery('a[rel="popover"]').popover();
/]]>/
</script>

Only the middle part is the style information from the file and the last bit of these lines is where the /**/ is coming from in the quexml-PDF.

I am unsure how to deal with this...Adam, can you please advice? Do we need to pull the styles through the renderer? Apply filtering before passing it to tcpdf..?

Hi mfaber,

I see this problem too. I'll post a solution shortly.

Hi again mfaber,

Attached is a new quexmlpdf.php file that doesn't use the renderer. I think this is more appropriate as the class style is specific to queXMLPDF and doesn't need to be separated. Let me know if this works and I'll update 2.05.

Works! Yeeha :)

Thanks,
MF

Suggest to also remove the now obsolete quexmlpdf_view.php from the repository...
