Custom Template PDF File Names

[rabii]

Thanks for your reply and good luck with your clients’ work.

rabii it's not that easy. On our production we just working on HTML templates which are coded on FTP. We started working on additional extension but there are limits in editor. We'll probably go back to this in the future, but there is no date, because on daily basis we're working on clients projects..

hey @emillod

Do you care to share what have you changed in the PDF engine to make such beautiful templates.

Thanks

We had similar issue. After we change few things in pdf engine, now we have 46 different PDF templates

We've managed to create document like this:

Among others we added fonts from Google Fonts and icons.
I'm not sure is it nice enough, but it works for us

Sorry for white blanks, but i had to cover confidential information

Hi Emilio!

Can you please share with us how to improve the PDF engine of Espo and if possible 1 or 2 PDF templates so we can make a public repo of nice looking PDF templates to use with EspoCRM.

Thank you in advance.

partomas -that's great question. I thought that we'll be able to publish it in few days, but we have too much work. First priority for us is release new version of dark theme which will not only fix few issues in vertical version but also add me dark horizontal version.

I hope I'll be able to release Darryl theme in few days or weeks. To publish PDF extension we need more time and help from our workers so I can't tell you specific deadline

[partomas]

what was conclusion? Might be I can find it already somewhere?

[partomas]

It would be amazing. When we can expect that?

Excellent emillod , great job !

esforim first version required creating template in HTML files through ftp server.
Second version allow users to prepare whole template through WEB GUI of EspoCRM in html editor.

I know, it's not ideal.
It's possible that we also share with community not only an extension but also some examples of our templates.

Wow! I don't believe that is being made from EspoCRM. But is it possible to create that from the Front End GUI using the WYSIWYG with your current implementation? Or require external magic and/or full use of the <code view>?

Hi, thank you.
Regarding the creation of PDF besides the built in TCPDF, perhaps this: https://github.com/mikehaertl/phpwkhtmltopdf could be a solution. I am not a developer, but perhaps someone with the appropriate skills might be able to use it.

or this one: https://github.com/dompdf/dompdf

shalmaxb i'll speak with my business partner to publish this as free extension

[shalmaxb]

How did you do that, looks very good.
