Document blocks (content & styles)

The card "Custom document (general settings)" divides the document into six sections. For each section you can define your own content (rich text) and your own CSS (style). Use the dropdown to select the block to edit.

The six blocks

Block	Position in the document	Applies in the template to
Letter Header	Top header area	header { … }
Receiver	Receiver/delivery address	.recipient-address-container { … }
Sender	Sender line	.sender-address-container { … }
Positions	Above the line items table	.hue-costom-document__positions, .line-item-table
Summary	Totals area	.payment-shipping-container { … }
Letter Footer	Bottom footer area	footer { … }

Content (rich text)

The content field is a rich text editor. The entered content is inserted at the respective position in the document:

• Letter header, receiver, sender, positions, summary, footer – Add e.g. additional texts, notices, logos (as HTML) or legal information here.

• If content is set for the footer, it replaces the entire standard Shopware footer (four columns). Leave the field empty to keep the standard footer.

• The positions content is rendered above the line items table.

• The summary content is added inside the payment/shipping area.

Note: The content is embedded as HTML (raw). You can therefore use HTML markup. Make sure the markup is valid and properly closed so the PDF renders correctly.

Style (CSS)

The style field is a code editor. The CSS entered is written into the document's <style> block and applied to the respective container (see table above). You only write the CSS rules (properties), not the selector – the latter is set automatically by the plugin.

Example – letter header (block "Letter Header"):

text-align: center;
padding-bottom: 20px;
border-bottom: 2px solid #000;

This produces in the document:

header {
    text-align: center;
    padding-bottom: 20px;
    border-bottom: 2px solid #000;
}

Example – receiver address (block "Receiver"):

font-size: 11px;
line-height: 1.4;
color: #333;

Language switcher

Content and styles are stored per language. Use the language switcher (top right of the card) to change the language. When switching, the values stored for that language are loaded.

Tip: Save your changes before switching the language so no input is lost.

Hide delivery date

Using the "Hide delivery date" switch (top of the card) you can hide the delivery date in the document. The setting is stored per document configuration.
