Default Re: Compact Attractive Invoice

Troy,

Congratulations on mastering the order_invoice.tpl

May I suggest:

1. kill the field names. Most people don't need to see the field: "name" before their name. They know this is their name (usually)
2. Combine city/state/zip for US addresses into one line.
3. Combine first/last name into one line.
4. Move NAME from "personal info" to the billing name
IN fact, I'd move all the "personal info" field to billing section... (or vice versa)

etc...

You've definitely improved on the stock invoice, but I would take it all the way.

How would YOU want the invoice to look if you were the customer?

In my opinion, less is more (that is make sure it prints on 1 page of letter paper)

Hope this helps,

Jeremy
