Odoo PDF Viewer

Odoo PDF Viewer Features

• The app is a universal net hijacking intelligently QWeb reports, custom URLs and merged documents. It intercepts those files before they can cause an unwanted automatic download, immediately rerouting them into a clean, native previewer.
• Allows users to choose their preferred way of viewing. The documents are opened in a second tab, using advanced background loading mechanisms to successfully defeat modern browser popup blockers.
• The module is tightly coupled into the core Action Manager and the HTTP controller level, so it works automatically everywhere. The previewer catches all of them: Sales Orders, Vendor Bills, Inventory Labels, third-party custom reports.

• The app adds a lightweight settings shortcut directly in the user profile menu. This lets any employee switch on the fly between modal popups, new tabs, regular downloads or auto-printing, without having to go through complex backend menus.
• Because print preferences are saved directly to the user profile, administrators can set up role-specific behaviours in the standard Odoo Users menu in advance – for example, setting the Warehouse team to “Auto-Print” for instant packing slips, and assigning the Sales team to “Preview in New Tab”.

Complete Workflow for PDF Viewer Preview

Simply navigate to your user profile menu and select your preferred Report Print Behavior (Preview Document, Standard Download, or Auto-Print) and toggle the Open in New Tab setting according to your needs. Go to any application within Odoo (such as Sales, Invoicing, or Employees) and select one or multiple records, then click the standard Print or Download action button. A loading indicator will instantly appear to secure your session, followed rapidly by the generated PDF opening flawlessly in your chosen layout format. Finally, review the document natively and use the integrated toolbar to print, download, or close the preview without ever leaving your current workspace.
