jonndoe45 Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 I have developed a intranet php app. I need to create nice looking printouts - reports and invoices. Yes I know that you can't print for the clients machine, it won't be done like that. The server will do the printouts. What I am going to do is create the printable files in a set directory. The invoices need a graphic image to be printed as the logo then the invoice, probably done on a thermal printer. The reports will be a bog standard printer. So, I need to know if there are print libraries out there to get my formatting set out and how do I test these files easily without having to print them out every time I make a minor change - is there some sort of print preview viewer in Ubuntu ? If anyone can help, greatly appreciated Thanks JD Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/207984-print-formatting-in-php/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
MockY Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 When I have need for reports, summaries, and invoices, I simply create a HTML document (or PDF) in a report folder. That way I can use CSS to style it the way I want and I can easily go back to view older ones.
