upgrade to 4.5

[raeyo]

I succesfully did the upgrade to 4.5 (from 4.2) and everything is running smoothly.

 

Only issue I have is that the € signs after amount / subtotal amount etc... in my pdfinvoice are gone.

 

Does anyone know how and where I can place the currency back in there?

Tried to edit this line from invoicepdf.tpl and place the currency but seems not to be working.

 

$pdf->Cell(40,7,$subtotal,1,0,'C','1');

 

 

Thnx in advance

I would guess you are using iso-8859-1 in WHMCS? In that case any special character in your PDF invoice will be gone, like reported here: http://forum.whmcs.com/showthread.php?t=38382

This didn't help. I have a customized invoice template (pdf) but even if I upload the original one, problem persist.

 

Anyone can explain how to add "€" after the amounts?

 

$pdf->MultiCell(40,$rowcount * 5,$item['amount'],1,'C',0,0);

I was trying to tell you it is a bug. If you are using iso-8859-1 in WHMCS, then any special characther will not display in your PDF invoice, including € - it's already there, you just can't see it. It is a bug.

Ah.. thnx Ditto.

 

In the meantime I did a workaround.

 

I replaced

 

$pdf->Cell(140,7,$_LANG["invoicessubtotal"],1,0,'R','1');

 

with

 

$pdf->Cell(140,7,$_LANG["invoicessubtotal"].' '.€.'',1,0,'R','1');

 

...now thats for the amount but for the other items like subtotal, credit and total I have to fix this code

 

$pdf->Cell(40,7,$total,1,0,'C','1');

 

(not succeeded yet)

 

 

... in the meantime waiting for the bugfix.

[raeyo]

$pdf->Cell(40,7,$total,1,0,'C','1');

 

becomes

 

$pdf->Cell(40,7,$total.' '.€.'',1,0,'C','1');

There's no reason why this shouldn't still be working. The TCPDF class has been upgraded to their latest version but that's the only change. Double check the font settings and try re-entering your currency in Setup > Currencies.

Hi Matt

 

We have the same problem?

 

After the upgrade we lost all our special characters in our invoices. BIG Problem!

 

We have even tried to install different characters to the font folder with out any luck?

 

Please advise what to do, i looks really unprofessional when we send invoices!

 

Please advise
