  • how can i have calculating numbers on an invoice?

    Posted by Matt Rowlands on June 16, 2010 at 12:49 am

    I’m working with Indesign cs4 and i’m filling in my first invoice for first real client and the prices keep changing due to new quotes from 3rd party material etc.

    Thus im wondering if theres a way a text box or text boxes can add up all data within them and spit them out in the ‘Total remaining:’ then when i enter something in ‘Total paid:’, total remaining would be deducted of that figure.

    thanks for any help!
    really looking forward to having this work..

    Not really what the program was designed to do. Industry standard would be to make a template that contains your company information, logo, boxes, etc… and then print that empty template.
    Then using a business application (excel, quickbooks, billings, etc…), enter in your specific information/numbers which then laser print on your pre-printed template.
