Everything you need to know

A walkthrough of the generator, answers to the questions we get most often, a few invoicing habits worth adopting, and fixes for the rare things that go wrong.

Step-by-step guide

  1. 01

    Open the Generator

    Use the navbar, or the 'New invoice' button in the top-right corner.

  2. 02

    Add invoice details

    Invoice name, number, currency, issue date and due date.

  3. 03

    Fill in Bill From

    Your business name, address, email and phone — the sender block.

  4. 04

    Fill in Bill To

    Your client's details. These appear side by side with yours on the page.

  5. 05

    Write the summary

    A description of the work, the amount, payment method and any closing notes.

  6. 06

    Check the preview

    The document on the right is exactly what the PDF will contain.

  7. 07

    Download

    Click Download PDF. It saves as invoice.pdf and a copy lands in Saved Invoices.

Invoicing tips

Number your invoices consistently

A simple INV-001, INV-002 sequence is enough, and it makes chasing a late payment far easier.

Always set a due date

'Net 14' beats 'at your convenience'. An explicit date on the document gives you something to point at.

Spell out the payment method

Bank name and last four digits, or the UPI/PayPal handle. Fewer follow-up emails, faster payment.

Keep a template per client

Download one invoice per client, then reuse it monthly and only change the number, dates and amount.

Troubleshooting

My saved invoices disappeared

Local storage was cleared — by a browser cleanup tool, private browsing, or 'clear site data'. Saved invoices cannot be recovered, so download the PDF as your permanent copy.

The preview looks cramped on my phone

The preview stacks below the form on small screens. Rotate to landscape or open the page on a laptop for a full-width document view.

The amount in words looks wrong

Check the Amount field contains only digits and a single decimal point. Commas and currency symbols belong in the Currency field instead.
