Users - order pdf garbled

I’m on SVN 6494 and the order pdf layout has been garbled. If you open an order in PDF it overlays the company address and the order header info in the upper right corner. I updated orderView.fo.ftl to the newest SVN and it still exists. Still not too comfortable with this .ftl code to know how to change. This also happens with the demo data….

Any thoughts,

Mark

Re: Users - order pdf garbled

Hi Mark

We had the same problem, and ended up modifying the source file to meet
our needs.

Is this the same issue? If so... does this fix it?

Daniel,

Can you send your changes in as a patch?

Also, if Hans is reading this--I think the logo is not working either.

Re: Users - order pdf garbled

Hi

I would have, but we ended up removing the graphic completely, hard
coding our address, changing margins and reorganizing the layout... so
I pretty much guessed it would be worthless to the community.

However, in the name of sharing changes in case they are a good start
for another's efforts...

orderpdf.patch is attached.

Re: Users - order pdf garbled

In reply to this post by Daniel Kunkel

Thanks... I also figured out the logo thing earlier. I just inserted the
<fo:table-cell/> code before line 50. While this cleans up the PDF, it
removes the Order Header info.. Order id, etc...

Did I miss something? Do you get the order number somewhere else on the
pdf?

Thanks
Mark

Hi

pdf?

I don't think so... If it's the same thing that we tried, it seemed to
make the Sales order line, date, number etc disappear, probably by
having other commands or the header graphic overwrite it, or by forcing
the header information off one side of the page.

Re: Users - order pdf garbled

Yes,
We are on the same page, if you add the table cell code, it seems to bump
the order header info, status, etc... off the page.

Sooo, you have a nice clean return address in the upper right corner, but
you don't know the order status or order number anymore....

I was hoping for a solution that kept both items on the page....

back to trying to figure out this .ftl stuff....
