I am evaluating the pdf control and I'm trying to work out the best way to do an invoice report using the tool.

I've looked through all the examples and I am not sure the best way to proceed to get a professional layout for an invoice. I can do bits and pieces based on the examples but struggling with anything sophisticated.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thank you

Hi,

One common way for this kind of task is to use HTML to layout the output and then use our HTML to PDF converter to render the HTML as PDF. HTML is not only extremely versatile and powerful, but also you can easily debug/test your layout with a web browser. So basically your focus would be to generate the property HTML instead.

Thanks!
