print PDF

[Carlos Villavicencio]

Hello there, I need to change the invoice's format in the PDF for printing,
so where I can change that?

In the uri of the PDF button referees an invoice.pdf file which receives as
parameter the invoice number, but I cant find that file. Where is the
mechanism for doing thant?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Actually what you have seen in the url is not a file but a request path
that you must check out in the controller.xml. It's probably a url that
points to a view handled by a freemarker .ftl file or a form widget .xml
that renders pdf.

To summarize, you must check everything in
/webapp/$component_name/WEB-INF/controller.xml. where $component-name is the
same component you find in the url. it's probably accounting or ordermgr in
your case.

Regards.
Amine.

Moreover the final file you are likely to change would be something like *.fo.ftl. Then you have to learn a bit about FOP I guess  :
