Ok, so let me talk about a last
detail. The printing of invoices.

4. History of Report Webkit
First,
We are going to have resellers.
They should be able to have unique
style and header on invoices.
They should be able to customize
design easily.

Second,
We have to print payment slip.
With or without background
or formatted for easy copy paste.
And some time we do not want
payment slip.
Simple isn’t it...

commercials strips from our server.
I heard that OpenERP has a DMS.
