MichaelMiller Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Hi, I´m having a problem with the generated pdf invoices. In the preview formating is as it should be but after exporting/converting to pdf the text is nearly unreadable. Formating is far from the preview, the entire text is super bold and sort of blurry. If I choose print invoice and select my system pdf printer formating is fine, but this is a pretty dirty workaround and not applicable for automatic email delivery. Changing the default layout settings did not do the job... Is this a known issue? Any ideas how to generate "nice" pdfs? Thank you Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teri Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 My pdf's are coming out nice and clear. I'm running 3.99 on a Mac. Could it have something to do with your pdf viewer? Especially if they print fine. Can you email one to yourself (or a friend with a different pdf viewer) and see how they look? Or view it on a different computer?

MichaelMiller Posted November 18, 2014 Author Share Posted November 18, 2014 Teri, thanks for your reply. No it definitively has nothing to do with the pdf viewer. If I print the (by invoice) generated pdf it is as bold and blurry as on the screen. Below is an example: I´m running Windows 7 and Express Invoice 4.29. Any further ideas?

Teri Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Michael, That must be very frustrating! I'm using 3.99 on a Mac, so I don't know if there is something different about the Windows and EI structure. Perhaps a Windows user would be willing to chime in? I don't see anything in the Preferences section that specifically addresses your issue. I would try adjusting the appearance of your invoice. Perhaps use a different template, or different font size settings to see if it makes a difference. I had trouble setting up our invoice layout because things would jump around when I made slight adjustments. It was a matter of doing a lot of little changes to finally get it to do what I wanted. But we never had a problem with blurry fonts. Sorry I can't be of any more help! Teri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
