Use limeMpdf for printing surveys was created by thomasjanotta
Hi Denis, from your doc I cannot see, how to add limeMpdf print link for pdf export. I copied the plugin into "plugins/limeMpdf", I activated the plugin in the manager. I copied the twig (header, body, ffoter) files to my custom theme "upload/themes/survey/extends_fruity/views/subviews/mpdf".
Where do I have to change the generated link to the pdf?
Code:
<form action="index.php/printanswers/view?surveyid=675884&amp;amp;printableexport=pdf" method="post">

This is now generated by the default printanswer_head.twig

limeMpdf is a tool for other plugin.

It does nothing by itself.

Exemple of usage : gitlab.com/SondagesPro/ExportAndStats/pd...r/pdfReport.php#L540

Hi,
you only have to upload "pdfreport" and "limeMpdf" to the plugin folder.
Then you have this option in "pdfreport"

Hallo Joffm (ich steh auf'm Schlauch), many thanks.

I installed limeMpdf and pdfReport and activated it, but WHERE is this menu?

I don't have it in the question (I suggested it).

hmmm

Thanks B)

Hi, Thomas,
you know that you use a question of type "file upload" for "pdfreport"?
And here you find it.

Joffm

And this?

I copied the twig (header, body, ffoter) files to my custom theme "upload/themes/survey/extends_fruity/views/subviews/mpdf".

I have no idea what you tried to do here. Not necessary at all.

Hi folks, thank you.
RTFM ;-)
OK, i got it by looking at the demo. Unfortunately Dennis doesn't show how to 'simply' display Q and A like
Code:
{Q00001_SQ001.question}:{Q00001_SQ001.shown}

But now I am looking for code for groupname, everyone is writing books but noone writes the simple answer (as for Q: Q00001_SQ001.question).

Is this really the only way, besides writing the Group name 'manually'...

forums.limesurvey.org/forum/can-i-do-thi...ion-group-in-tempate

@joffm:

the limempdf help says that you should copy these twigs to [/upload/...custom_templ/mpdf] for editing it... :-)

Thanks. Danke.

Just put it into the question code.

I only had thi syntax file, not the survey itself. I created a quick and dirty one.


And

Unfortunately Dennis doesn't show how to 'simply' display Q and A like
{Q00001_SQ001.question}:{Q00001_SQ001.shown}

Why should he? It's all here: ;)
www.limesurvey.org/manual/ExpressionScri...#Access_to_variables

And to come back to my question.
In my opinion these folders are included in the plugin already.
In "lime\plugins\limeMpdf\views\subviews\mpdf"

In 4.X via a plugin (core plugin)

You're totally right, but for example : some user can like to add logo at header, make their own footer.

body are less need, but header and footer can really be intersetig :)

I update the plugin to allow update this 3 twig file in theme editor in some hour.

@Joffm Na gut, Dachs kann ich ja mal probieren, aber Ameise? Nein.
Cool, thank you.

I still have a last question: I put the pdfreport.css in the files/ folder but it is not used. (cleared cache)

with a pdfreport.css in the files directory of the template


Fruity?
my custom template? (limesurvey\upload\themes\survey\_extends_fruity\files\)

Thank you.
Would you, Joffm and Denis, send me your donation links? (paypal, patreon...)

pdfreport.css is used only with tcpdf (RTFM please).

WIth limeMpdf : gitlab.com/SondagesPro/coreAndTools/lime...df/style-custom.twig is here for this.
