The 30s delay makes it very slow. I would prefer some other way of addressing the issue, or lowering the delay, does it really need to be that long?
I tested it with a 20s delay and in some tests, the MathJax didnt load properly. With 30s, it worked fine.
In 6d620dc I used the option 'window-status': 'finished' in the wkhtmltopdf call. This causes it to wait exactly until mathjax is fully loaded. However, it also tries to retrieve images and then gets stuck somehow which I tried to fix with a img-tag recognition workaround, but it still seems to get stuck with using that option on some quizzes for me, although the quiz doesnt contain any images. I dont know why this occurs and therefore I instead used a js-delay. The problem is that wkhtmltopdf doesnt have a useful verbosity option which really makes debugging that problem a guessing game...
I think we should then disable it by default, and add the info to the readme.
good idea, meanwhile I can try to figure out something more about the problem and try to find a solution.
A solution could be to write a moodle quiz parser, I did write one a couple years ago in java: https://gist.github.com/Romern/3ac8db103abaed2a73c707a55bd78186 . It outputs latex. would have to rewrite it in python though
MathJaix LaTeX elements are now rendered correctly in the output pdf.
However, wkhtmltopdf gets stuck while trying to retrieve images embedded in quizzes. I added a js-delay, that stops after 30s and prints the pdf. For now, images are not displayed in the pdf. There are however not many lectures that i know of that use images inside quizzes so that might not be an important problem.
I also fixed multiple quiz downloads that occured to me.
