Magento Error – Troubleshooting Invoice Printing Issues

errorinvoicemagento-1.7print

I've got a standard Magento 1.8.0.0 installation on Windows 7
using the BitNami Magento installation for XAMPP.

When I open the Sales -> Invoices screen and click on an
invoice and then click on the orange Print button in the
upper right hand corner of the screen I get the following
error message inside the web browser:

Fatal error: Declaration of
Zend_Pdf_FileParserDataSource_File::__construct() must be compatible
with Zend_Pdf_FileParserDataSource::__construct() in
C:\xampp\apps\magento\htdocs\lib\Zend\Pdf\FileParserDataSource\File.php
on line 41

Anyone know why I am getting this and how to fix this?

Magento in versions before CE 1.9 / EE 1.14 is not compatible with PHP 5.4 out of the box, which causes this error.

Anyways, there is an official patch for this.

Magento – Printing invoice in different custom language

Some information for you on this:

The language is set in the getPdf() method of Mage_Sales_Model_Order_Pdf_Invoice. You will see that the locale and store are set according to the invoide data:

Mage::app()->getLocale()->emulate($invoice->getStoreId());
Mage::app()->setCurrentStore($invoice->getStoreId());

What you could do is to extend this functionality and add maybe a second button to your admin-backend which always generate the english invoice.

Be aware that emulate() needs a store id. If you don't have an english store, this won`t work.

In this case you could try to remove the first line Mage::app()->getLocale()->emulate($invoice->getStoreId()); from your rewritten-method and also the revert back Mage::app()->getLocale()->revert(); at the end of the function which sets the locale back to the last one before emulation.
