This module is used to print a lot of pages in a single PDF file without any errors like "buffer overflow" or "error code: -8".
You can print 2000 pages in one PDF in a quick time. A progression will be display in the info log.

TO-DO

Make sure to do this before using the fix_wkhtmltopdf module on your server

  1. It's first recommanded to set the limit of files that can be open on your server by using this command line : ulimit -n 1000000
  2. Also increase the limit_time_cpu and limit_time_real of your odoo configuration file odoo.conf :
    For example :
    • limit_time_cpu = 36000
    • limit_time_real = 72000

Sometimes, you just need to uninstall the "noto-color-emoji" font to make wkhtmltopdf working :
> sudo apt purge --autoremove fonts-noto-color-emoji --yes

Solve

Interface to follow the progression of the printing process.

When you print pdf, the log info will show up the progression of the printing process.

Remark

By default, the header and the footer will not be part of the final result to increase the speed process.
So if you don't need header and footer on your PDF, this is the best option.

Nevertheless, you can print the header and footer back by activating the button in the configuration panel.
This will greatly increase the printing time of the pdf.
