Embed existing PDF into QWeb report
Dear contributors, i have a client that requests to add their terms and conditions* as part of the order report as the last page, but they have some order specific data and specific styling around, so I can’t just append static pages at the end of the report. I am looking for a solution to embed PDF* into the QWeb report. Quick search on the internet gave no result. My best bet idea (not yet tested however) would be to convert the PDF to embed into SVG and embed this and try out if wkhtmltopdf can handle this. Any better ideas? Bonus question: Is there something readymade to append existing PDF to the PDF generated by QWeb reports? Thanks. Regards, Peter * Terms and conditions is a PDF document I could store as attachment or static file into the module in this case.

Re: Embed existing PDF into QWeb report
Joerg, please don't advertise in this list private things that are outside OCA unless you plan to contribute them to OCA.I'm also surprised by the paragraph in https://odoo-partner.org/ about OCA supporting the aim of such an alliance where that's not true and I can know it at first hand as I was on the OCA board at that time. Please remove it for not giving incorrect messages trying to get more support. It's correct and great that you want to launch the initiative, but don't bind it to us.Regards.El vie., 2 oct. 2020 a las 13:07, Joerg Lorenz (<jlorenz@itis.de>) escribió:Hi Peter:We have developed such module since V8 and up to V12.

Re: Embed existing PDF into QWeb report
From at least Odoo 12 a method hook exists to allows you to postprocess the generated pdf document into ir.actions.report https://github.com/odoo/odoo/blob/14.0/odoo/addons/base/models/ir_actions_report.py#L210You can override this method to merge your static pdf page with the generated report. Should be easy thanks to this hook.On Thu, Oct 1, 2020 at 5:42 PM Axel Mendoza <aekroft@gmail.com> wrote:Check the usage of this Odoo examplesorThe idea is to be able of generate the PDF from the Qweb report and merge it with the static PDF Pages from another file contentI think that It's simpler than the SVG wayMsc.
