# Paperless-ngx branding — SMK

## What's supported
- Custom logo: `PAPERLESS_APP_LOGO` env var → path to a logo image served as static.
- Paperless ships its own dark mode (matches SMK dark-first).

## Assets
- Logo: `../../assets/icon.svg` → serve as static file; reference in `PAPERLESS_APP_LOGO`.

## Apply (cosmetic only)
In the paperless compose `.env`:
```
PAPERLESS_APP_LOGO=/usr/src/paperless/static/logo/icon.svg
```
And bind-mount `assets/icon.svg` into the container's static dir.
Then `docker compose up -d paperless-webserver` (env change → recreate container; no DB/auth changes).

## Note
Logo path must be inside the container. If mount friction, host via Gitea raw URL instead:
```
PAPERLESS_APP_LOGO=https://git.smkfam.com/larry/smk-branding/raw/branch/main/assets/icon.svg
```
