Hi there!

I want to change the invoice orientation from "PORTRAIT" to "LANDSCAPE".
Kindly advise if there any syntax that I can add in the .rml file or any other way would be much appreciated.

Many Thanks

this seems only possible after rewriting the reports using webkit

You can try to modify your report with Aeroo module which is a module
for OpenOffice.org to modify reports : https://launchpad.net/aeroo

First of al you must to remove RML header from from report action invoice. (Administration-> Customization->Low level objects->Actions->Reposts).
Then find in account_print_invoice.rml this ocurence:
<document filename="test.pdf">
  <template pageSize="(210mm,305mm)" title="Test" author="Martin Simon" allowSplitting="20">
and change pageSize what you want: pageSize="(297mm,210mm)" is A$ landscape.

and then you must adapt all table column definitions to use the new paper width ...

Hi

If I modify the report directly from source, what will happen when there will be new version?

when you upgrade addons your changes will be lost.
