[SOLVED] Integrated Labels

[bigstef]

Hi everyone.

I use integrated labels to print off my invoices on Ebay and was wondering if anyone knows how to set up the pdf invoice for use with the labels so that I can use them with my PS shop. The invoice pdf I print in the back office is ideal apart from the few changes I need.

The customers address would need to be in a bigger font and moved slightly in order for their details to be printed on the address label on the integrated label. The label is on an A4 sheet of paper, the label is 23mm from the top of the page and 20mm from the right hand edge, the label itself measures 85mm wide by 54mm high.

Also the details of what they have purchased would need to be moved down the page slightly.

The only other thing needed would be to move the invoice number to the top of the page in the middle.

Can someone help on this as I have no idea how to do it.

Many thanks :-)

Hello, it looks like you may have to edit one of the php files to change the PDF output.
Have a look at the file called PDF.php under the classes directory. There are a few values in there that look like they might affect the font size, type and layout.

Yeah, had a look at the file and have no idea how it creates the .pdf invoice.

It know it uses fpdf to create the pdf file but I have no idea how to edit it.

It seems that you might need a bit more in depth knowledge of fpdf to be able to get this sorted out.

Cheers

So many companies are vying the labels on customer base.I think we should select the best one.I would suggest you to go for JSB prints who prints the integrated labels.

Its not the labels I need, I have them already.
I need a bit of help (huge amount) to edit the pdf file.
I have integrated labels that have 2 stickers at the bottom. One I use as a delivery label that has my PPI number on it and the other is a returns label.
I have found out how to change the footer to go higher up the page but this affects all the pdf's generated.
I have downloaded the Print Label module but again its just not quite there.
Can anyone else shed some light on the values I need to use to get the address formatted correctly in the output.

it's in classes/pdf.php

lines 376-384

$width = 100;
$pdf->SetX(20);
$pdf->SetY(25);
$pdf->SetFont(self::fontname(), '', 12);
$pdf->Cell($width, 10, self::l('Invoicing'), 0, 'L');
$pdf->Cell($width, 10, self::l('Delivery'), 0, 'L');
$pdf->Ln(8);
$pdf->SetFont(self::fontname(), '', 9);

Just play with the numbers until you get the result you want

Thats not quite what I was looking for.

I have adapted the Print Label module to suit my labels. There are 3 labels, 2 large and one strip. The 1st large one has my PPI impression and return address with the customers delivery address, the second has my return address for return packages and the strip is to put into my PPI posting book.

When someone enters their address on the website, if they do not enter any details into address line 2 then there is a gap in the address for the customer.

I am looking for a way to make their address show so that if they have not entered anything into the address 2 field then instead of having a blank line on my label it removes the blank line.

Hope this is clearer.

Got it sorted with loads of trial and lots of errors.
FPDF.org was a huge help.
Thanks anyway

Hi bigstef ...
There are many ways in which a PDF file can be edited, using a wide range of editor tools that are on the market. This page focuses on the typical editing needs in a prepress environment. The following types of changes are discussed:

* Text manipulations: how to edit text in a PDF.
* Image editing: how to edit an image in a PDF file or replace it.
* Page related changes: how to delete pages, change their order or rotate them.
* Altering a PDF file: how to merge pages from separate PDF files, edit password protected files or add bleed.
* Color editing: how to convert a PDF from color to black&white;.

Thank you...
