Look at the php settings "post_max_size" and "upload_max_filesize".

An alternative method is to render your report in html first (which people seem to find easier to format than PDF) then using wkhtmltopdf.org/ which converts html to PDF via the command line.

It's easy enough to create an html version of your report in the final page text setting by using the expression manager to extract the answers, which also means you don't need to access the API.

Quick question: is there a default or auto-generated HTML template we could use with pdfReport, or do we really have to write a specific HTML template for every surveys (which also means manually process every fields in it, and re-implementing their display logic too)?

I saw in the README.md (at GitLab) that there are default stylesheets (CSS) from pdfReport and limeMpdf, but I can't find anything about a default or auto-generated HTML template, which would produce a basic default PDF for any survey. Did I miss something?

To answer one question of the first original post.

Export to PDF queXML : this option will generate a PDF without metadata, yet all the answers are truncated to the first 10 characters.

@Joffm do you know if there finally was a bug report for this problem/enhancement? (since this user wasn't able to create one at the time)
