    Description
    This module adds a new Report Engine based on WebKit library (wkhtmltopdf) to support reports designed in HTML + CSS.
=====================================================================================================================

The module structure and some code is inspired by the report_openoffice module.

The module allows:
------------------
    - HTML report definition
    - Multi header support
    - Multi logo
    - Multi company support
    - HTML and CSS-3 support (In the limit of the actual WebKIT version)
    - JavaScript support
    - Raw HTML debugger
    - Book printing capabilities
    - Margins definition
    - Paper size definition

Multiple headers and logos can be defined per company. CSS style, header and
footer body are defined per company.

For a sample report see also the webkit_report_sample module, and this video:

Requirements and Installation:
------------------------------
This module requires the ``wkhtmltopdf`` library to render HTML documents as
PDF. Version 0.9.9 or later is necessary, and can be found at
http://code.google.com/p/wkhtmltopdf/ for Linux, Mac OS X (i386) and Windows (32bits).

After installing the library on the OpenERP Server machine, you may need to set
the path to the ``wkhtmltopdf`` executable file in a system parameter named
``webkit_path`` in Settings -> Customization -> Parameters -> System Parameters

If you are experiencing missing header/footer problems on Linux, be sure to
install a 'static' version of the library. The default ``wkhtmltopdf`` on
Ubuntu is known to have this issue.
