Rendering source-code with highligted syntax in the quiz forms

[dipanjanchakraborty]

I am creating an offline quiz for a programming course. The questions and the answer options might have code snippets (in Java). I can use the option in the moodle question creation interface to highlight the syntax of the source code, and this renders fine on the moodle interface.

However, when generating the PDF forms for the quiz, all the lines in the code are rendered in one single continuous lines (the newlines in the "pre" environment are ignored).

Is there any work around for this?

Hello.
This bug is for all code snippets, without highlight filter also. I thing the problem is "pre" tag is removed, "code" tag is preserved.

Actual bug :

Expected :

Actually, I try to find in source code where "pre" is removed.
This bug is seriously problematic for computer science assessments.

Is maybe a problem with ATTO html editor.
I actually make tests with TinyMCE HTML editor.

Regards.

@dipanjanchakraborty : no problem with TinyMCE HTML editor...

[dipanjanchakraborty]

@obook same outcome even with TinyMCE HTML editor

Preview is fine:

But the PDF form is not:

This is the xml for the question:

<!-- question: 8  -->
  <question type="multichoice">
    <name>
      <text>Question 7</text>
    </name>
    <questiontext format="html">

<pre class="language-java"><code>class Voop {
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          doStuff(1);
          doStuff(1, 2);
     }
     // insert code here
}</code></pre>
<p>Which of the following line(s) if inserted in line 6 above will compile?</p>]]></text>

I am creating an offline quiz for a programming course. The questions and the answer options might have code snippets (in Java). I can use the option in the moodle question creation interface to highlight the syntax of the source code, and this renders fine on the moodle interface.

However, when generating the PDF forms for the quiz, all the lines in the code are rendered in one single continuous lines (the newlines in the "pre" environment are ignored).

Is there any work around for this?

Finally, I think is Moodle HTML editors fault, not moodle-mod_offlinequiz.
So I use the tool online https://smb33.keosystems.com/qcm/ for make my questions.

This is a screenshot of PDF made with this tool:

Yes, the GIFT format worked. Thanks.
