on 5 September 2026 The PDF and interface settings group together the configuration for PDF documents and the Quotes, Orders and Invoices screens in DoliPlus.
In practice, this page brings all display settings together in one place. This way, you control both the data entry screen and the printed output. Plus, you save time on a daily basis.
Home Menu → Configuration → PDF/Interface Settings
First, note that the page has four main sections. Each section covers a specific use of PDF and interface settings:
- Sales/Purchases interface settings (No. 200–223): behaviour of quote, order and invoice forms on screen
- PDF settings (No. 100–168): display options for printed documents
- Additional PDF settings (No. 300–328): numerical values (margins, column widths, etc.)
- Colours: background, borders and text in PDF outputs
Moreover, each option has a fixed reference number. You’ll easily find them in the tables below.
Section 200 — Sales / Purchases interface settings
To begin with, these options modify the display and behaviour of on-screen forms. They mainly concern quotes, orders and invoices.
Additionally, the Documents column specifies the scope of each option. It indicates the relevant document type (P = Quote, C = Order, F = Invoice) or a global scope (Yes/No).

Multi-entity: duplicate PDF and interface settings
In a multi-entity setup, you configure each entity separately. This is why you sometimes need to repeat the same setting.
However, the “Duplicate this configuration” button simplifies this task. It copies all settings to another entity, speeding up the implementation process.
In summary, these PDF and interface settings give you full control over data entry and editing. Take the time to configure them once to save time later.
