Saudi Currency Symbol
رمز العملة السعودية
Display the official Saudi Riyal (SAR) symbol in your backend, Point of Sale, and all PDF reports â without breaking your existing fonts or report layouts.
Zero Configuration
Font-Safe
Works Everywhere
The Problem We Solve | المشكلة التي نحلها
❌ Without This Module
- Standard fonts don't include the official SAR symbol glyph
- Currency displays as "SAR" text or shows a broken character
- PDF reports and invoices look unprofessional
- Manual workarounds break other fonts or layouts
✅ With This Module
- Official SAR symbol renders correctly everywhere
- Install once â works in backend, POS, and all PDF reports
- Uses CSS unicode-range â your company fonts stay untouched
- Zero configuration required â automatic setup on install
How It Works
Saudi Arabia introduced a dedicated currency symbol for the Saudi Riyal. Standard system fonts do not include this glyph, so it cannot be displayed by simply setting the currency symbol in Odoo.
This module solves the problem by bundling a custom icon font and registering it using the CSS unicode-range technique. The font activates only for the SAR character and does not affect any other text. This approach follows the same pattern used by Odoo 19 core for NotoSansArabic.
Key Features
⚡ Zero Configuration
Install and go. The SAR currency record is updated automatically â no manual setup needed. The symbol position is set to "after amount" by default.
🔒 Font-Safe Technology
Uses CSS unicode-range: U+E900 so the icon font activates only for the SAR glyph. Your company font stays completely untouched.
📄 PDF Reports
Works perfectly in all PDF reports â invoices, sales orders, purchase orders, delivery slips, and any QWeb report template. Compatible with wkhtmltopdf.
🛒 Point of Sale
Full POS support â the SAR symbol renders correctly in the POS interface, receipts, and session summaries.
🖥 Backend Views
The symbol appears in all backend views â list views, form views, dashboards, and accounting journals wherever SAR amounts are displayed.
🌐 Cross-Browser Support
Includes font files in multiple formats (WOFF, TTF, EOT, SVG) for maximum browser and PDF engine compatibility.
What Happens on Install

| Symbol Position Set | The symbol is placed after the amount (e.g., 1,000.00 ﷼) |
| Font Registered | The sar-symbol font is loaded in backend, POS, and report assets |
Frequently Asked Questions
الأسئلة الشائعة
unicode-range: U+E900 and does not interfere with any other font. Your company font renders all regular text; the sar-symbol font activates only for the SAR character.
