Hi
I have installed Invoice manager and the pdf extension following the instructions but I am not getting a PDF icon showing up? I am also not getting PDF invoices attached to any emails?

    Sorry I forgot to mention also I don't see any option to print the invoices I know having the PDF option would solve that problem but I though I would ask in case Im missing something really obvious ;)

    Hi Karl,

    I had this same problem when I first installed Invoice Manager, so from my experience here are a few thoughts:

    - When on the Components>Invoice Manager Page, go to options at the top right. Then navigate to email tab and select Attach PDF invoice in email.
    - Double check your invoice template has HTML in the PDF section, and double check your current invoice has this template chosen as its prefered.

    Also, these where the other issues:

    - Make sure you have a folder called 'pdfinvoices' in your Joomla directory for the PDF files to be generated into. I had this in the wrong spot to start and dompdf didn't have a temp location for the files, it should be at something like: /public_html/pdfinvoices

    - I also double checked to make sure my dompdf folder was uploaded to the correct location: /public_html/components/com_invoices/helpers/dompdf

    Hope this helps, otherwise I am sure the experts will sort you out :)

      you probably already have this fixed, but maybe the above will help others in future. Cheers.
