Printing and Exporting Documents

3 min readPublished April 12, 2026

Every document in Fixmo can be printed or exported to PDF from the print preview page.

  1. 1Open any document from the Invoicing page.
  2. 2Click the 'Print' button in the action bar at the top of the document detail page.
  3. 3The print preview page opens, showing a full A4-sized preview of the document.
  4. 4A toolbar at the top provides a Back link, the document code, a template dropdown, and a Print button.

Choosing a Print Template

Fixmo offers three professionally designed print templates. Use the dropdown in the print toolbar to switch between them. The preview updates instantly.

  • Classic — a traditional business document layout with a bold header showing your shop name and logo, a bordered 'Bill To' section, a full items table, notes and terms sections, footer text, and dual signature lines for authorized and customer signatures.
  • Modern — a contemporary design with an accent color bar at the top, clean typography, labeled 'From' and 'Bill To' sections, and a minimalist items table. No signature lines, giving a professional digital-first appearance.
  • Compact — a space-efficient layout that fits more content on a single page. The header and customer info are condensed into single lines. Ideal for documents with many line items.

Both printing and PDF export use your browser's native print functionality.

  1. 1Select your preferred template from the dropdown.
  2. 2Click the 'Print' button in the toolbar.
  3. 3Your browser's print dialog appears.
  4. 4To print: select your printer and click Print.
  5. 5To save as PDF: select 'Save as PDF' (or 'Microsoft Print to PDF') as the destination and click Save.
Tip

All templates are designed for A4 paper in portrait orientation. The print CSS ensures colors and backgrounds are preserved in the output.
