magento-1.7pdf
I am creating own module for print order-pdf for the admin section of Magento. This is working fine. I'm able to print individual order pdf as well as multiple order pdf but problem is that When I print complete order pdf with "Print All" then order pdf not printing. Any Suggestion. The Function in below:-
$this->getMassactionBlock()->addItem('pdfdocs_order', array(
'label'=> Mage::helper('sales')->__('Print All'),
'url' => $this->getUrl('*/sales_order/pdfdocs'),
));
In the same file the Mage_Sales_Model_Order_Pdf_Abstract::insertOrder method is what draws the header part of the PDF. To change gray background to white, change:
$page->setFillColor(new Zend_Pdf_Color_GrayScale(0.45));
to
$page->setFillColor(new Zend_Pdf_Color_GrayScale(1));
before the line
$page->drawRectangle(25, $top, 570, $top - 55);
To change color to black in the same file change:
$page->setFillColor(new Zend_Pdf_Color_GrayScale(1));
to
$page->setFillColor(new Zend_Pdf_Color_GrayScale(0));
right after drawRectangle call.
You will have to do the same in Mage_Sales_Model_Order_Pdf_Abstract::insertDocumentNumber() because that is where Invoice # is added.
With all of the above said, you are better off with doing local module which overrides the abstract class or the invoice class. And in it just change what you need. This way in case of future changes in the Abstract.php file in core code pool you will inherit new features and retain your changes as well.
You are mixing up two different comments here. The code $invoice->getCommentsCollection() will retrieve comments entered via this box
which will appear here in the admin
The Magemaven comment is saved with the order object - see here
So something like this should do the trick:
$order = $invoice->getOrder();
$orderComment = $order->getCustomerComment()? $order->getCustomerComment() : $order->getCustomerNote();
$page->drawText($orderComment, 35, $this->y, 'UTF-8');

From you question I can gather the following information.
If this is correct and you problem is that number 3 does not work then I have bad news for you as this is actually a "feature". If you look at the action that is called
Mage_Adminhtml_Sales_OrderController::pdfdocsActionyou will see that the first thing that is done is a check for order ids to print and if there are none in the request than nothing is printed.I think what you will need to do is use the Magento grid select all option before selecting the button to print all and this should work, if it does not take too long.
