As my thread title suggests, is it possible to modify the font type and size of the pdf template via css?

you can add some style in the template textarea editor.

I didn't try to load a font type so I am not sure it will work (domPDF the library we are using, is not perfect, in the next release we are planning to use other lib)

Hi tompap,

I will try this. I would like to see if we can change the font size, if nothing else.

Also, can we alter the generated pdf to include the invoice number in the filename (rather than just file.pdf) ?

Hello,

for the name of the invoice, we need to make a fix. This feature doesn't seems to work correctly.

Best regards.

I can confirm that changing css style in the template works. However, to change font-face, I have to add the additional font to dompdf, since the dompdf library that comes with the module did not come with a full complement of fonts.

Any clues on how to modify the generated pdf filename ourselves? I assume this is done from within pdf helper class in the com_invoicing ?

Thanks again!

Hello,

DOMPDF don't manage CSS3.
The best way to convert to PDF is using wkhtmltopdf (but to use it you should install this program on linux etc.. a little too complicated for all users). but wkhtmltopdf is based on webkit to do the PDF rendering. so you can use all CSS syntax.

Regarding the file name, we have to do some test
because the code is correct already
in view.pdf.php
we do
$filename =

sprintf(JText::_('INVOICING_INVOICE_FILENAME'),InvoicingHelperFormat::formatInvoiceNumber($invoice));
$filename = str_replace(array("/","."," "),"_",$filename);
$this->setName($filename);
