I guess the default css are somewhere else or maybe there is none by
default.

I don't think so. You would have to run XWiki in debug mode in Eclipse

Re: [xwiki-users] PDF Export of {code} sections
Did you tryed to export a xwiki/20 document which is using the new
{{code}} macro instead ? This one is not based on so you should
not get the same issues.

I tried following the instructions at:

Re: [xwiki-users] PDF Export of {code} sections
Dear all,
this issue is really a showstopper for us.
What I did now was adding two hacks to PdfExportImpl.java:
1) Remove call to JTidy in convertToStrictXHtml() and instead just
do a trim() on the html string.
2) Do not apply the user CSS rules if there are none (i.e. don't call
applyCSS() if css equals "")
No I have somewhat better output. On the other hand, now the
generation of the table of contents doesn't seem to work anymore.
Strange.
Is there any chance that someone from the XWiki team will
investigate the issue any time soon? Otherwise we'll try to stick
to my current solution (not really satisfactory, but at least partially
does what we need). ;-)
Kind regars,
Alex

Re: [xwiki-users] PDF Export of {code} sections
Hi Tomas, all,
debugging XWiki in eclipse, I found at least part of the problem:
In PdfExportImpl.convertToStrictXHtml() the page is converted
to strict xhtml using jtidy. Unfortunately, jtidy also imposes its own
indentation on the document, which effectively breaks any
environment like the one generated by the code macro.
I haven't used jtidy. Can it be configured to keep the original
indentation and whitespaces of an input document?
Cheers,
Alex

Dear Thomas,
thanks for your quick reply.
I tried following the instructions at:
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Configuration#HCustomizingthePDFexportLook26Feel
I even tried with very simple css snippets such as:
h1
{
color: blue;
}
but it doesn't seem to have any effect on the PDF output.
BTW, i was wondering why there is no pdf.css in my XWiki
installation. I'm using XWiki Enterprise 2.1.1.
I have looked in the release notes to check that the PDF export
hasn't changed in newer versions, right?
Any ideas how I could debug this issue? Are the intermediary files
during generation available somewhere?
Cheers,
Alex

The display of code macro is controlled by a css class, maybe it's

[xwiki-users] PDF Export of {code} sections
Dear all,
we are using XWiki for the project websites and online
documentation of our open source projects and are
(almost) very happy with it.
For releasing distributions and for easy printing of multi-page
documents, we would like to use the PDF export facility
of XWiki. The problem is that the {code} snippets used
often in our documentation are nearly unreadable in PDF.
Here is an example (web page and PDF export):
http://jadex-agents.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/xwiki/bin/view/Standalone+Platform+Guide/01+Introduction
http://jadex-agents.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/xwiki/bin/export/Standalone+Platform+Guide/01+Introduction?format=pdf
We browsed the documentation, but found it a little bit confusing.
Can anyone please point us in the right direction for solving
this issue or (even better) suggest a fix?
