Moving Invoiced To: to the right side of pdf invoice

[Hosting NSB]

Good Afternoon Everyone, I am new to WHMCS and am loving this system, I have a simple pdf change I would like to initiated, I have gone through the documentation but the php is over my head

 

My billing department has specially made envelopes with the clear plastic on the right side of the paper, I need to switch the Invoiced To: section of the pdf invoice to the right side, as I am having to physically print some invoices and mail them.

 

Can anyone help with this, I tried adding a table around it to push it to the right but it completely broke it. I have restored but I just need a simple way to tell the data to be right aligned instead of left

 

Thank you in advance for anyone that can help!

HI

 

have you read this: http://docs.whmcs.com/PDF_Invoice_Customisation

 

otherwise i'm geussing you have to change the settings of this in invoicepdf.tpl

$pdf->SetXY(15, 42);

have you played around with these x and y settings?

 

or

there are plugins available.

open /templates/{Your-Template}/invoicepdf.tpl file for editing,

 

between (approximately) line #69 and #94 change the following code (taken from v7.1.2):

 

# Clients Details
$addressypos = $pdf->GetY();
$pdf->SetFont($pdfFont, 'B', 10);
$pdf->Cell(0, 4, Lang::trans('invoicesinvoicedto'), 0, 1);
$pdf->SetFont($pdfFont, '', 9);
if ($clientsdetails["companyname"]) {
   $pdf->Cell(0, 4, $clientsdetails["companyname"], 0, 1, 'L');
   $pdf->Cell(0, 4, Lang::trans('invoicesattn') . ': ' . $clientsdetails["firstname"] . ' ' . $clientsdetails["lastname"], 0, 1, 'L');
} else {
   $pdf->Cell(0, 4, $clientsdetails["firstname"] . " " . $clientsdetails["lastname"], 0, 1, 'L');
}
$pdf->Cell(0, 4, $clientsdetails["address1"], 0, 1, 'L');
if ($clientsdetails["address2"]) {
   $pdf->Cell(0, 4, $clientsdetails["address2"], 0, 1, 'L');
}
$pdf->Cell(0, 4, $clientsdetails["city"] . ", " . $clientsdetails["state"] . ", " . $clientsdetails["postcode"], 0, 1, 'L');
$pdf->Cell(0, 4, $clientsdetails["country"], 0, 1, 'L');
if ($customfields) {
   $pdf->Ln();
   foreach ($customfields as $customfield) {
       $pdf->Cell(0, 4, $customfield['fieldname'] . ': ' . $customfield['value'], 0, 1, 'L');
   }
}
$pdf->Ln(10);

# Clients Details

Thank you so much that did the trick!

Thank you so much! This worked perfectly!

Ok now my office is asking if we can move it a little more in, so a margin to the right just a bit, trying to make it fit this envelope they have thousands of made, is this an easy fix? thank you so much for all you have helped with so far!

[sentq]

sure, add the following line after the opening <?php in the same file

 

$pdf->SetRightMargin(10);

 

or

$pdf->SetRightMargin(5);

Ok now it looks like I need to push it up higher too, is it possible to have it swapped with the details of my company? I am trying to do it on my own now with some interesting results!
