I have created two files 'fileone.css' and 'filetwo.scss'. they have styles for my template to generate a PDF report in sales app.

I want to add these two style files to the "assets" in the "__manifest__".

the pb is I don't know where to put them. there is 2 assets: 

'web.report_assets_common'  and 'web.report_assets_pdf'.

which one I should pick ?


'assets': {
        'web.report_assets_common': [
            '/my_addons/static/src/scss/filetwo.scss',
            '/my_addons/static/src/css/fileone.css',
        ],
        'web.report_assets_pdf': [
            '/my_addons/static/src/scss/filetwo.scss',
            '/my_addons/static/src/css/fileone.css',
        ],
    },


Anyone could help?

Thanks.

Hi Liam Robs,

If you want to use custom fonts you will need to add your custom font and the related less/CSS to the web.reports_assets_common assets bundle.

Example:

'assets': {
        'web.report_assets_common': [
           'your_module/static/src/less/fonts.less'
        ],

and let's say this is your fonts.less file

  1. web.reports_assets_common
  • This speaks about the common resources that Odoo uses for its web-based reports. on Odoo, reports are frequently created and displayed on a web interface. These reports may contain a variety of assets, including JavaScript files, CSS stylesheets, and other resources needed for proper report rendering. 

  2. web.report_assets_pdf

  •  This phrase probably has something to do with creating PDF reports in Odoo. With Odoo, you can create PDF versions of many system reports and documents.
  • This can contain the materials needed to design the layout, style the PDF output, and guarantee that the content is accurately converted to PDF format.

The main difference is report_assets_common affected on both web view and pdf view while report_assets_pdf does not affected on web view.

Thank you.
