Hi,

I'm using VB.NET (Visual Studio 2013) and Mysql.
And right now i'm trying to make a program to make and print Invoice.
Already have the Invoice template and already convert it to JPEG.
How to make & print the Invoice using the existing invoice template (JPEG) so the strucuture and placement of the Invoice's component will be the same?

Can i use the existing invoice as a background image and then using the data that i query from Mysql (maybe put it in the textbox) as the data to be place according to the position of the existing Invoice's component?

Best Regards,
Rabbi

Why jpg? Use html + css.

OR crystal reports export or FastReports export or PDF writer / templates

Because the invoice is created using excel, and i thought i can use the jpg as background.
I guess crystal report is the easiest way right?
