Can I use a .pdf letterhead in Odoo 9? - odoo

We have a company letterhead document which we apply to all outgoing official documents. This is a .PDF document with a header and footer.
Is it possible to integrate this document to odoo v9 so it will be used or all our generated docs?

yes can can have global header and footer for your company.
you need to go to the settings >> companies and edit company record. where you can find the "Report Configuration" tab. in that you can edit the RML header as you want.
Hope this helps!

Odoo POS - Auto download invoice after validating

See this video: https://youtu.be/PW-C3xKFBAE
Can anyone tell me how to change this PDF invoice template to a different one? When you click validate in the POS module it automatically downloads a PDF invoice. But I want this to download a different template design that is already installed in Odoo.
Thank you!
To change the default layout of invoice reports in Odoo then go to General Settings > Companies > Configure Document Layout. Here you can change the template of the report for the company.

Header and footer by uploading PDF

I have multiple PDFs for which I want to insert Header and footer to them automatically while taking printout. Please suggest how to proceed.
Header and footer should display in background and body of PDF should not get altered.
A solution for Windows:
You can use CIB pdf brewer, which is available at https://pdfbrewer.cib.de/. It is a free PDF processor.
Just select all PDFs, which should be processed in the file explorer and right click on CIB pdf brewer => convert. Then you can define a profile with a stationery paper (as pdf or png) which should contain your footer and header and all files will be processed according to that profile.
As a post-Action you could also define to print the resulting pdf to a printer directly.

Change PDF title in browser window

I have a pdf file that I am putting on a website for a client. It is located here...
http://www.optiphysicaltherapy.com/dev/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/OPTI_NewPatientForms.pdf
The title should be OPTI New Patient Forms but if you look at the tab in the browser and the name at the top of the browser window it says "Coury And..."
Where can I go to change this?
The website is using Wordpress 3.8.1 and I am not sure if it is in Wordpress or in the actual pdf file.
Thank you,
Matt
Ok, So I found out how to change the meta-data in a .pdf form here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/X/pro/using/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7c63.w.html (dead link; archived version here)
Sure enough the Title in the Meta Data within the .pdf was "Coury And..."
Once I changed this the Tab and the Title in Firefox web browser changed to have the title that I wanted.
This shows us that the meta-data in the .pdf does show in Firefox as if it were the meta-title of the webpage when displaying a .pdf within the browser.
Open the PDF with Notepad++ and search (CTRL+F) for /Title
Change title between brackets (and leave the brackets)
For instance:
Change "/Title (OLD TITLE)" into "/Title (This is my new title)"
Save the PDF and Voila
If you have access to the Word document in which the PDF is based, you can define the title when you save the file.
Whatever was on that link, I did it opening the PDF with a hex editor (HxD) and searching Title, so I found /Title (untitled) somewhere and just edited it (changed the value between parentheses, here untitled).
no need to change in meta of pdf. just to following change in iframe url
http://localhost:8080/getDataPDF//?patientId=145. use // to solve this problem it can hide your title.
Open the PDF document in Adobe Acrobat Pro: (OR use google chrome extension)
(1) Go to Select File > Properties
(2) Select the Description tab to view the metadata in the document, including the document information dictionary
(3) Modify the Title field to add or change the document's Title entry
When you open pdf in chrome you can hit print and save as pdf. As file name write what you want as title in browser, it should be the same now.
Open File > Properties, then in the box labeled 'Title', add your title.
Click on the 'Initial View' tab, where it says Show:, make sure the drop down says 'Document Title' instead of 'File Name'. This works for Chrome, but sadly not IE yet.
For change my pdf tittle I just open it on nano terminal, or with another text editor that open the raw, and I edit the Title field.
The title can be changed inside MS Office or LibreOffice if you have access to the source by going to file/properties/description.
As another answer suggested, printing as a PDF works here if you have the source document. What the other answer perhaps got wrong was that there is an option to add a title in the print dialog.
You can also use this online pdf editor to change metadata of a pdf file.
The title does not come from the pdf. it comes from the word file you export it from.
Right click on the word file, go to details. change the title and export again
Good luck

Is there any file pdf version which allow for automatic(or manual) addition of http source of document?

Is there any pdf version which allow for automatic(or manual) addition of http source of document ?
Scenarion of this problem from user side looks like that :
I found disire document in pdf format on web.
I save it.
In a few months I open this document and I wish to find the web page where I've found it.
It would be nice to have somewhere address of that file, of course it could be manually written in soe text file, but usually there are problems with copy+paste of pdf documents titles.
If you can modify your PDF files before sending them to the browser, then there are several places where you could put the URL where the document came from:
You could use a node in the "logical structure" tree (chapter 14 part 7 of the PDF reference document). This tree will show up in Acrobat Reader in the "Model Tree" tab.
You could add a hyperlink annotation to the top or bottom of each page, or the first page, or in a new page that you can add at the beginning or at the end of the file. I personally think this is the best approach since the link will be click-able.
You could add a button field on a page that fires a GoTo action that is linked to the source URL. Actions are explained in chapter 12 - Interactive Features of the PDF reference document.
You could add a bookmark(outline) that points to a named destination that is linked to the source URL. Named Destinations are also explained in chapter 12. This approach can also be used with just one click, and it is possible to hide the bookmarks tab if we will not use it.
You could add it as a Document property as #Bobrovsky said.
PDF allows you to add custom values to document information dictionary (see 14.3.3, "Document Information Dictionary" in PDF Reference). You might put your URL there. Adobe Reader will show custom values in Document Properties dialog on the Advanced tab.
Starting from PDF 1.4 (Acrobat 5x and later) you might add URL to XMP Metadata stream referenced from document catalog (see 14.3 Metadata in PDF Reference). Adobe Reader will show metadata properties too if you put them in Custom scheme.
Acrobat Professional could be used to add custom values or XMP metadata. Almost any PDF library that can open and save PDFs could be used for the task too.
I think there is no other places in a PDF document that you can use to store your information.

Print as PDF functionality in Contacts module

I am using Sugar Enterprise 6.4.0
Is there any way to Add "Print as PDF" like functionality available in Quotes module to the Contacts module. I want to save the contact information into a PDF format by clicking on a button that may appear in the Contact module Detail View.
I know this is an old question but thought would post a related reply, might help out someone.
In the Contacts module there is a Generate Letter option in the actions dropdown on detail view. This option will link to the related templates you create in PDF Templates module.
If you do not have a pre-defined template, you can go to the PDF Templates module build a custom template for the related module with the information you need in the PDF.
Then when you click on the Generate Letter link, it will show you the templates present for the said module, you just have to select the preferred template and it will download the PDF for you.
If I've understood your question correctly this I think might help you.
