In general, this version is working correctly. Thanks !

I experience several problems with the makepdf.php.

The first problem is that the path to the tcpdf library is wrong. E.g. line 35 of make.pdf:

if (!is_file(XOOPS_PATH '/vendor/tcpdf/tcpdf.php')) {


This should be:
if (!is_file(XOOPS_ROOT_PATH '/class/libraries/vendor/tecnickcom/tcpdf/tcpdf.php')) {


There are several similar problems in the makepdf.php.

The, there is an error message:
XOOPS URL not defined


This can be solved by deleting all lines such as:
SetFont(PDF_FONT_NAME_SUBSUBPDF_FONT_STYLE_SUBSUBPDF_FONT_SIZE_SUBSUB);


I don't know what is wrong, but this code is a few time in the make.pdf and generates the error.

Subtitle is not displayed on the index page. I added after line 207 in index.php:

$story['subtitle'] = $thisstory->subtitle();


Furthermore, I did several adjustments on the layout.

I experience two other problems, possibly bugs.

Problem 1:
In the admin there is a tab "Newsletter". The date selection does not work. I tried to export news items from nov 2016 till now and entered the dates using the calendar. The result: all news items in de database were expeorted !

Problem 2:
I tried to download the file created in step 1. It generates an error. The link contains "uploads/news/newsletter.txt", whereas the file is stored as "letter.txt".
