PDF ↔ ZPL Converter
This module provides an automated solution to convert attachments between PDF and ZPL formats directly within Odoo. It monitors incoming messages and their attachments, and when a file matches configured rules (based on filename or message content), the conversion process is triggered automatically.
ZPL files are converted into PDF format, and PDF files are converted into ZPL format without any manual intervention. The converted file is automatically attached to the same message, allowing users to access both formats easily.
This module integrates seamlessly with the Odoo chatter system and is especially useful for businesses that require both label printing (ZPL) and document sharing (PDF). It is optimized for single-page file conversion.
