I think that you might need to create/modify the invoice report template for
this, don't really know, though, as I don't use multiple currencies in my
business.
Why do you generate and print bills for your suppliers, though? Surely they
send you a bill in USD or whatever, and you need to record it as something to
suit you?

Yes, you need to hand edit your data file - somewhere near the top (line 50 in
my file), you should have something like this:
<slot:key>gncInvoice</slot:key>
<slot:value type="integer">390</slot:value>
this is the number from last invoice generated, and GC will keep count from
whatever you alter it to. Note that it is a numeric count only.

GC uses the $LANG setting for your gnome desktop - so I guess that the gnome
control centre would be a place to start?
