Email invoice automatically to mail upon purchase as attachment

**navido** · 5 May 2019, 02:47 PM

Hi everyone

There is a module i have been looking for for a while.

Does anyone know if its possible so that when customers order, say through moneyorder, that the invoice is sent as a pdf file automatically to the customers email after purchase? As now i have to do this manually.

Most of the modules that previously generated a pdf file seemed to do so for the packing slip or some other document. If there is still a plugin compatible with php 7.x (or could be made so) and that will generate a pdf file it could be used to observe the notifier used to generate the email of the new order and attach the pdf file to the email.

The question becomes what software supports the newer server environment securely?

Im not sure if you are for example referring to pdf order center module (which isnt compatible with 1.5). But i am surprised that this hasnt been questioned before. As i understand no modules for this is available today, right?

For pdf order center see https://github.com/Zen4All-nl/PDF-Or...t/tree/develop . I am working on an update.

And I had done something more at one point for a different pdf generator, but it isn't verified to be up-to-date with php 7.x.

I believe the crux of the matter is the pdf generation portion. After that, the attachment to the email is really not much of anything.

Otherwise there are things for which people have asked. They may have received what they needed and that was the end of discussion. They may have been shared with everyone, they may have turned into commercial product.

Do I know of something? Other than the advertising that Design75 just did, I don't know of much in way of a pdf creator/converter. Haven't had a need for it. If I wanted a "pretty" email, I could set up html, though a pdf may be more favorable in a more business type business.
