You can configure each template to include a link to the pdf in the order meta, you can then use this in conjunction with other plugins to for example create reports that include the pdf link or that send them to other services.

To include a link to the pdf in the meta do the following:

1.- Go to template settings and check “Add pdf link in order meta”

2.- Define a metadata name, this will be the name used in the order’s meta. This name should be in lowercase and include only alphanumeric characters and underscores

Important: If you don’t start the name with a underscore WooCommerce and other plugins might consider the metadata as public and could display it in other places like on the orders page. In the example below the metadata was called ‘pdflink’ and since it didn’t start with an underscore it is shown in the ‘Custom fields’ section of the order page

You can configure each pdf template to add a button in the “Orders” page to quickly view or download a template

To add these buttons for a template do the following.

1.- Open the template designer and go to template settings

2.- Go to order actions

3.- Configure the type of button and icon that you want to add in the orders page

And that’s it! now the configured template will add the button in the orders page so you can quickly access the pdf.

To import a template (either created by you using the template designer or downloaded in the online gallery you to the wc invoice page and click in import

Then select the template file (.zip file) that you want to import and that’s it! The template will be created.

To add a custom font please do the following

1.- Go to the template designer and click in Template Settings

2.- Go to Appearance tab and click in “Default Font Family”

3.- Click in add font

4.- Submit the font that you want to use, this font needs to be a ttf file (you can find several fonts like these in sites like https://fonts.google.com/)

5.- That’s it! now your font is installed and you can use it in your template.

Following these steps will make the plugin use the selected font in the whole pdf but if you want you can make the plugin use the font only in specific fields by going to the style tab and changing the font attribute

You can configure a template and repeat it for each order line. This is useful to create for example a certificate or license for each product ordered.

To repeat the template for each line do the following.

1.- Open template settings

2.-Check “Create a new page for each order line”

That’s it! the pdf template will be repeated for each order line and then all the pages will be merged into one pdf.

You could also combine this feature with conditional logic so the generated pdf only contain order lines that match a condition (for example products that belong to an specific category)

Most of the fields have an option to add or remove taxes.

To configure which sections of your template have to display taxes (or not), click in your “Invoice Detail” table

Then in the table settings define which fields should display the taxes
