PDF Layout problems

[Erwin]

I've rendered de PDF trough the Pediapres site, with all the default
settings. The lay-out of my wiki is ok, but the PDF shows some strange
layout problems. The are:
1. The 'none' alignment of an image doesn't seem to work?
2. Suddenly text is centered?
3.When using a bullit list, my layout is gone

Can someone please look at my PDF and give me some advice how to solve
these problems? I would be very grateful.

Erwin

I have uploaded the PDF as LayoutProblems.

The problem is that the table surrounding the list is removed. This is
done on purpose but in your case unnecessary - I opened a ticket for
that: http://code.pediapress.com/wiki/ticket/817

The fixes have only been done in the git repository.

And you might want to wait with updateing the software. There is a "new"
bug that is not present in the mwlib version you are currently using:

Other question; Do you mean i have to install the software on my own
server instead of using Pediapress?

Hi Erwin,

sorry for the confusion. Since you are using the pediapress renderserver
you don't need to do anything - I updated the software on the server.

Volker

Thanks, the first 2 issues are solved!

What i notice is that the rendering percentage has a lot of decimals
(it shows: 1.0029515647888%)

Do you have any estimate of solving issue 3?

Again, thanks a lot!

It will take a while until I fix this. I am hesitant to fix this now,
since it solves quite a few problems we had in the past. At some point
manipulating the parsetree with the "treecleaner" will be rewritten -
one of the goals is to improve the transformation of tables.

If I remember correctly you could work-around the problem by using a
<div> instead of a table in the template that renders the boxes.

Volker

Ok, i'll try the div tag.
But..... I can't render anymore. I get errors like this:

Try the div tag, but this alternative was disappointing. No layout (no
border) is made in de PDF. This makes my document very hard to read.
So, nothing more then to wait for the solution?

My lay-out stays a mess. What can i do? The PDF and the Lay-out at
Pediapress is also differtent. So we can't use the PDF and we can't
order a book at pediapress. Can someone please see if there can be
something fixed?

O, i forgot, the URL = http://nl.reflexwiki.net/index.php?title=Verkoop_artikelbestand

See the differebce between the wiki lay-out, the PDF download and the
Pediapress book

I hope someone can fix it, because it is not useable now.
