Please direct me to the right direction ?

anyone ?????

1. Open PDFHelper class
2. Find PrintOrderToPDF method
3. Use the following code to render addresses in table (2 column)

int[] addressColumnWidths = new int[1] { 100 };
            int addressCount = 1;
            if (order.ShippingStatus != ShippingStatusEnum.ShippingNotRequired)
            {
                addressColumnWidths = new int[2] { 50, 50 };
                addressCount = 2;
            } 
            Table addressTable = new Table(addressCount, 1);
            addressTable.BorderWidth = 0;
            addressTable.DefaultCell.Border = 0;
            addressTable.AutoFillEmptyCells = true;
            addressTable.Cellpadding = 0;
            addressTable.Width = 100f;
            addressTable.SetWidths(addressColumnWidths);


            //billing info
            Cell billingAddressCell = new Cell();
            billingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph(" "));
            billingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph(LocalizationManager.GetLocaleResourceString("PDFInvoice.BillingInformation", LanguageID), fBold));
            if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(order.BillingCompany))
                billingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph("   " + String.Format(LocalizationManager.GetLocaleResourceString("PDFInvoice.Company", LanguageID), order.BillingCompany), f));
            billingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph("   " + String.Format(LocalizationManager.GetLocaleResourceString("PDFInvoice.Name", LanguageID), order.BillingFullName), f));            
            billingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph("   " + String.Format(LocalizationManager.GetLocaleResourceString("PDFInvoice.Phone", LanguageID), order.BillingPhoneNumber), f));
            if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(order.BillingFaxNumber))
                billingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph("   " + String.Format(LocalizationManager.GetLocaleResourceString("PDFInvoice.Fax", LanguageID), order.BillingFaxNumber), f));
            billingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph("   " + String.Format(LocalizationManager.GetLocaleResourceString("PDFInvoice.Address", LanguageID), order.BillingAddress1), f));
            if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(order.BillingAddress2))
                doc.Add(new Paragraph("   " + String.Format(LocalizationManager.GetLocaleResourceString("PDFInvoice.Address2", LanguageID), order.BillingAddress2), f));
            billingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph("   " + String.Format("{0}, {1}", order.BillingCountry, order.BillingStateProvince), f));
            billingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph("   " + String.Format("{0}, {1}", order.BillingCity, order.BillingZipPostalCode), f));
            billingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph(" "));
            addressTable.AddCell(billingAddressCell);

            //shipping info
            if (order.ShippingStatus != ShippingStatusEnum.ShippingNotRequired)
            {
                Cell shippingAddressCell = new Cell();
                shippingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph(" "));
                shippingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph(LocalizationManager.GetLocaleResourceString("PDFInvoice.ShippingInformation", LanguageID), fBold));
                if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(order.ShippingCompany))
                    shippingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph("   " + String.Format(LocalizationManager.GetLocaleResourceString("PDFInvoice.Company", LanguageID), order.ShippingCompany), f));            
                shippingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph("   " + String.Format(LocalizationManager.GetLocaleResourceString("PDFInvoice.Name", LanguageID), order.ShippingFullName), f));
                shippingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph("   " + String.Format(LocalizationManager.GetLocaleResourceString("PDFInvoice.Phone", LanguageID), order.ShippingPhoneNumber), f));
                if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(order.ShippingFaxNumber))
                    shippingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph("   " + String.Format(LocalizationManager.GetLocaleResourceString("PDFInvoice.Fax", LanguageID), order.ShippingFaxNumber), f));
                shippingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph("   " + String.Format(LocalizationManager.GetLocaleResourceString("PDFInvoice.Address", LanguageID), order.ShippingAddress1), f));
                if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(order.ShippingAddress2))
                    doc.Add(new Paragraph("   " + String.Format(LocalizationManager.GetLocaleResourceString("PDFInvoice.Address2", LanguageID), order.ShippingAddress2), f));
                shippingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph("   " + String.Format("{0}, {1}", order.ShippingCountry, order.ShippingStateProvince), f));
                shippingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph("   " + String.Format("{0}, {1}", order.ShippingCity, order.ShippingZipPostalCode), f));
                shippingAddressCell.Add(new Paragraph(" "));
                addressTable.AddCell(shippingAddressCell);
            }
            
            doc.Add(addressTable);
            doc.Add(new Paragraph(" "));

would you please show me how to add logo to the pdf invoice? Thanks

Here is what I use:

      
      Cell rightHeaderCell = new Cell();
      rightHeaderCell.HorizontalAlignment = Element.ALIGN_RIGHT;
      rightHeaderCell.VerticalAlignment = Element.ALIGN_TOP;
      Image logo = Image.GetInstance( new Uri( "http://www.elementalcoffeeroasters.com/images/logo_graphic.gif" ) );
      logo.ScalePercent( 50 );
      rightHeaderCell.Add( logo );

Hi, Just before I try, can I use "~/folder/images/logo_graphic.gif" instead.
I am still run it in local computer.
Thanks,

I dont think so. I think you have to use the full URL to the image. I am pretty sure I tried it and it wouldn't build.

Yes, you are right.  I just try it without local folder.  I get all kinds of errors.
Thanks so much for help me out.  I will try with my local ip.

Hi, I have no luck. I don't know what I am doing wrong or missing.  I used the "http://www...", but when rebuild the project it give me the same list of errors. (62 errors relates to Metadata file 'C:\\......\Nop.BusinessLogic.dll' could not be found.
Should I add it to the bin of Nop.businesslogic?  There is not thing in there before.
Thanks

Rebuild the solution.
