Styling & Editing PDF Invoice outside the admin menu

[DeiNeMudda]

Hello,

 

Im editing the PDF Invoice Modul for a easier view because I want to generate automatically Eventtickets.

 

Im working with the pdf_packingslip.php and now I have the problem that I want to change the X position of the Invoice Address box and the product title outside of the standard table

 

 

Questions: Why I cant change the X position in my pdf_packingslip.php but the Y position ?

 

//Draw Box for Invoice Address
if ( PDF_PCKSLP_SHOW_SENDTO == 'true' ) {
$text_color=explode(",",PDF_PCKSLP_SENDTO_LINE_COLOR );
$pdf->SetDrawColor( $text_color[0], $text_color[1], $text_color[2] );
$pdf->SetLineWidth(0);
$text_color=explode(",",PDF_PCKSLP_SENDTO_FILL_COLOR );
$pdf->SetFillColor( $text_color[0], $text_color[1], $text_color[2] );
$pdf->RoundedRect(0);

//Draw the invoice address text
$pdf->SetFont( PDF_PCKSLP_SENDTO_TEXT_FONT,
			   PDF_PCKSLP_SENDTO_TEXT_EFFECT,
			   PDF_PCKSLP_SENDTO_TEXT_HEIGHT);

$text_color=explode(",",PDF_PCKSLP_SENDTO_TEXT_COLOR );
$pdf->SetTextColor($text_color[0], $text_color[1], $text_color[2]);
$pdf->Text(11,77, ENTRY_SHIP_TO);
$pdf->SetX(100); // ### Cant change, why? ###
$pdf->SetY(50);
$pdf->Cell(9);
$pdf->MultiCell(70, 4.1, tep_address_format(1, $order->delivery, '', '', "\n"),0,'L', '1' );

}

 

and how I can extract the product title and set it to an other place?

I had the same problems but not only do you have to change the x position, you have to change the first number in the parenthesis after text and or mutlicell. I found a formula for it months ago, but can't find it now. Trial and error is tedious but eventually you can get it positioned where you want it.
