Hi John,

In the past I never used the Report option to create a printable invoice.  Rather, I edited the default Style Sheet and /Applications/Gnucash/Contents/Resources/share/gnucash/guile-modules/gnucash/report/invoice.scm such that all I had to do was click "Print Invoice" to get what I needed.  I think you are now suggesting I create a Report for each invoice I want to print, which is many more steps.

I see also that the new invoice layout is a bit problematic for me.  Where before I had "CHF 390.00" I now have "SFr.390.00" (no space between currency and value).  Also, the cells in the printed table have very little space to the cell borders.  I'm wondering if it's worth the effort to dig through the default invoice.scm to get the layout I want (like it used to be in 2.4) or if I should just stay with 2.4.  Are there any particular gotchas with running 2.4.11 with Mojave?

Thanks,

- Axel
