Styling

It's easy to change the look and feel of the commercial invoice. The template API allows you to easily insert your own logo and specify a custom font.

    
        {
    "template": "commercial_invoice",
    "font": "Open Sans",
    "font_size": 0.9,
    "font_color": "#32325d",
    "data" : {...}
}
    

Generate as PDF or Image

By default all templates are generated as a PDF document. If you would like to generate as a PNG or WEBP image, supply the file_type parameter in your API request:

    
        {
    "template": "commercial_invoice",
    "file_type": "png",
    "data" : {...}
}
