How FreshBooks writes PDFs
- • Invoices are generated from templates.
- • Amounts are right aligned.
What that means when you change the year
- • Amounts and line items edit in place; keep totals consistent yourself.
- • Amounts in FreshBooks PDFs are right aligned, so a longer value grows to the left and the column stays straight.
What happens to the rest of the page
- • Repeated headers and footers are separate text on each page, so edit each page's copy.
- • Tabular digits keep columns of years lined up.
Questions people ask
+Is there a find and replace?
Not yet. Edit each occurrence; each keeps its own layout exactly.
+Is it better to edit in FreshBooks?
If you have the original FreshBooks file and a lot to change, yes. For quick changes to the PDF itself, editing the PDF is faster and keeps it exactly as sent.
