PDF Report blank when using minimum_fee token
January 26, 2012, 04:26:31 am
If I include the token {membership_type.minimum_fee} in my message template, the PDF Report is blank when produced.

I can include {membership_type.name} without problems, it's just the minimum_fee token which causes issues. I thought it might be because some of the minimum_fee values were set to NULL, but setting them to 0 has made no difference.

I've tried viewing the queries in my browser using CIVICRM_DAO_DEBUG, but I get a massive list of queries (which I can't see anything wrong with), and then a message that the PDF can't be produced because the headers have been sent (obviously just caused by the browser being sent a debug webpage).

Anyone have suggestions of what might be wrong, or how I should debug the PDF? Thanks.

Can you see what HTML is being sent when the PDF is blank and tweak that to see what changes are needed to generate the PDF

Might want to upgrade to the latest version of dompdf and see if that fixes the issue

If I remove the token {membership_type.minimum_fee} from the HTML template it starts working. But we need to display this token in the PDF, to let members know the price.

Just tried upgrading to DOMPDF 0.6 beta 2, didn't fix the problem unfortunately.

I debugged the code before the HTML gets sent to DomPDF, and the HTML contains a "?" broken character where I'm presuming the currency icon should be in minimum_fee. Presumably this is why the PDF is blank, as DomPDF can't accept invalid HTML.

I've tried changing the Default Currency to USD in localization (it's normally GBP), and also changed the "Monetary Amount Display" format to not include the currency symbol, but none of this has made a difference.

Does anyone know which function replaces template tokens with the CiviCRM values?
