Customising Invoice Reports

[Paul Kruger]

So far this is also the reason I cannot change to Gnucash from Quickbooks.
A business MUST be able to print invoices that are designed with their own
look and feel including logos etc.

So far it does not look like the developers are actually business users of
Gnucash or they would have taken necessary pains to make invoices and
reports editable.  

I do a lot of invoicing and the only option that works for me is to just
select the invoices I need and click "Print" and have them output as a PDF
to send via email to customers or to print or fax depending on the customer.

All the nice features are for naught if one can't easily send an invoice to
customers.  This is a MAJOR handicap for Gnucash.
