Download and print quote and order PDFs

5 min readUpdated 31 Oct 2026Basics

Where are you working?

Download the quote, sales order or invoice, or print the full document from POS. Check that you have the right document type and version before sharing it.

A signed record uses the stored copy frozen at signing. That is different from generating a fresh document from an unsigned sale's current details.

Before you start

Open the correct sale

Start from Create a quote or order or an existing record.

Check access

Viewing documents needs View quotes and orders.

Check billing

A fresh PDF needs the record's owning location to be billed.

Prepare POS printing

Connect a printer to Shopify POS before using its print action.

The PDF's appearance comes from SettingsBrandingQuote PDF. Your brand kit covers the shared branding choices.

Location details, standard terms, wire instructions and order notes come from Business details and documents.

Download the document

  1. Step 1: Download the quote or order

    Open •••, then choose Download Quote PDF or Download Order PDF. The same eligible action appears on list-row menus.

    The page shows Downloading PDF..., then PDF downloaded successfully. Open the downloaded document to inspect it.

    The quote PDF download action
    Choose the document for this quote or order.
  2. Step 2: Check whether it is signed

    Read the document and signature area. On a signed record, the download is the stored signed copy.

    Use Signature records when you need the agreement's evidence or an older signature version. Do not assume later catalog edits changed this signed document.

  3. Step 3: Download an invoice

    Open Payments and Invoices, switch to Invoices, then choose Download on the intended current or archived version.

    Refunds and payment history explains those versions. Invoices are downloaded from that tab, not a separate order-menu invoice action.

  4. Step 4: Print the downloaded file

    Open the PDF in your usual document viewer and use its print command. Check the preview and page range before printing.

    The app's order menu has no Print item. The downloaded PDF is the document you print from the computer.

  1. Step 1: Open the print choices

    Open the quote or order and tap Print. Choose Print Quote or Print Order.

    The full PDF opens through POS's print preview. Check that the selected document belongs to the customer in front of you.

    The POS print choices
    Print Quote and Print Receipt produce different documents.
  2. Step 2: Review and print

    Review the preview, then print through POS. The document uses the same PDF rendering and assigned theme as the app download.

    For a signed sale, the stored signed copy is used. Check the version if the customer requested a copy after later changes.

  3. Step 3: Choose the other format when needed

    Use Print Receipt for the 80 mm receipt. Use Print to Sign when the customer will sign a printed agreement.

    Those actions serve different tasks. A receipt is not the full quote PDF, and printing a document does not itself record a signature.

Read the document from top to bottom

AreaWhat it contains
HeaderLogo, document number and reference, customer details, addresses, quote date, validity date and salesperson.
Bill to and Ship toThe relevant customer addresses, with company beneath the name. All-pickup and services-only sales use their applicable address treatment.
Line itemsProducts and options, with options following the template's field order.
Delivery groupsSeparate Delivering, Store pickup and Services tables appear when the sale needs them.
SummaryProduct subtotal, named fees, discount rows, shipping, tax, total and payment information.
Signature and notesThe customer signature and date, applicable waiver wording, wire instructions and sale notes.
TermsStandard location terms, followed by relevant category and product terms.
The quote PDF line and fee summary
Check the configured sofa and its named delivery fee.

Each fee prints by its own name. Subtotal and fee rows show gross amounts; Line Discounts, Fee Discounts and order Discount are separate reductions.

The payment area can include a Pay button. For customers abroad, the document identifies the store currency rather than implying their local currency applies.

The order's own note prints below the location note and above the signature. Treat both notes as customer-facing content.

Additional terms can include categories and selected products. Terms on documents explains their order and how signing preserves them.

Sales Order PDFs can include Memo, Credit Card Authorization and Rental Agreement pages according to the assigned theme. These are not additional pages on every quote.

What happens next

The first order PDF assigns its sales order number. Quote files use the quote number; invoices use their own numbering and later-version suffixes.

A document has one Customer Signature and Date area. Its terms page does not add another signature line.

After Force Convert, the signature area can say Signature not required with the staff member and date. That records the exception, not a customer signature.

If something goes wrong

Download is greyed out

Check the location's subscription. Fresh documents require a billed location; stored signed copies stay readable.

Valid until is in the past

It is calculated from creation, with a default of 30 days. Reviving a quote does not restart that date, and the date is not enforced as an expiry.

The validity period cannot be changed here

It is not an ordinary quote-page setting. Confirm the supported document-setting route with support.

No terms page appears

Blank-only terms do not produce a terms page.

Couldn't print

Review the printer connection and retry the intended document.
