Hi Marek, Sunayana/I shall check with customer on your query and feedback Can the HTML format have Red Hat Logo attached in it? So when customer takes print out, it would be included in that report Regards, Sherjil CSM-Red Hat
We probably don't want to include logo by default, but givem this is based on report templates, customers could modify it and add arbitrary html code to it. Why is logo important for the customer, perhaps there are other ways to fullfil the need.
Thanks for the question, Marek I understand customer(service provider) wants to share a consistent report to their customer/s about the OEM/software patching related information. This is a requirement coming from Strategic Government Body They have provided us with a sample pdf that gets generated from Windows, I am attaching it on ticket with ref name ' Windows Post-patch_GeM ' Can we help customer with a similar output ? I believe this feature will be helpful to other customers as well.
We will not be providing this. Instead, we will generate the data which can be formatted however the customer chooses.
