Shopify Order Printer Pro Invoice Design A - Set up Guide

This guide will provide you with all the steps required to add your new Shopify Order Printer Pro Invoice template to your Shopify site. If you have not yet purchased the invoice template you can do so by clicking here.

To complete this set up process you will need to have an image for your business logo and have downloaded the template code, which will have been emailed to you following your purchase (shopify_order_printer_pro_invoice_design_a.txt).

 

Step 1 - Log into Shopify

Ensure you are logged into the Shopify Admin area

 

Step 2 - Install the Shopify Order Printer Pro App

If you do not already have the Order Printer Pro app installed on your store, head over to https://orderprinterpro.com/appstore?ref=artisan-it-ltd and install/add the application.

 

Step 3 - Upload your business logo to Shopify

  1. Within the Shopify Admin area, click on Settings in the bottom left-hand corner of the screen
  2. Select Files from the left-hand menu
  3. If you do not already have a logo image uploaded, click Upload Files and upload your business logo image (for best results ensure the logo is cropped so whitespace around the image is removed)
  4. Within the file table, click the link icon to the right of the logo and copy the image URL

  5. Paste the link copied in part D somewhere that can be easily accessed later on in the process

Examples of where you could paste the links are Notepad or Word applications. It does not matter what you choose, as the links only need to be held temporarily, whilst you set up this template

Step 5 - Update the template number

On line 7 {% assign templ-number = "UPDATE TEMPLATE NUMBER HERE" %}, replace UPDATE TEMPLATE NUMBER HERE with the template number noted in Step 4 Part 7 (do not delete the speech marks)

 

Step 6 - Add your business logo to the new template

  2. Adjust the logo width and height values on lines 9 and 10
  3. If you wish to display the logo on the left hand side, on line 11 change {% assign logo-position = "right" %} to {% assign logo-position = "left" %}

 

Step 7 - Use the template as a receipt (if applicable)

On line 12, change {% assign templ-title = "Invoice" %} to {% assign templ-title = "Receipt" %}

 

Step 8 - Change the horizontal line colour (if applicable)

If you wish to change the colour of the invoice horizontal lines, change the hexadecimal colour value on line 13 (do not delete the speech marks)

 

Step 9 - Change the footer text

Edit the text within the speech marks for lines 14 - 17
