invoice_data = {
    "invoice_number": "INV-2026-001",
    "date": "2026-01-30",
    "due_date": "2026-02-28",
    
    "from": {
        "name": "Your Company",
        "address": "123 Business St",

PDF Generation with ReportLab

from reportlab.lib.pagesizes import letter
from reportlab.pdfgen import canvas
from reportlab.lib.units import inch

def create_invoice(data: dict, output_path: str):
    c = canvas.Canvas(output_path, pagesize=letter)
    width, height = letter
    
    # Header
    c.setFont("Helvetica-Bold", 24)
    c.drawString(1*inch, height - 1*inch, "INVOICE")
    
    # Invoice details
    c.setFont("Helvetica", 12)
    c.drawString(1*inch, height - 1.5*inch, f"Invoice #: {data['invoice_number']}")
    c.drawString(1*inch, height - 1.75*inch, f"Date: {data['date']}")
    
    # From/To
    y = height - 2.5*inch
    c.drawString(1*inch, y, f"From: {data['from']['name']}")
    c.drawString(4*inch, y, f"To: {data['to']['name']}")
    
    # Items table
    y = height - 4*inch
    c.setFont("Helvetica-Bold", 10)
    c.drawString(1*inch, y, "Description")
    c.drawString(4*inch, y, )
    c.drawString(*inch, y, )
    c.drawString(*inch, y, )
    
    c.setFont(, )
    subtotal = 
     item  data[]:
        y -= *inch
        amount = item[] * item[]
        subtotal += amount
        c.drawString(*inch, y, item[])
        c.drawString(*inch, y, (item[]))
        c.drawString(*inch, y, )
        c.drawString(*inch, y, )
    
    
    tax = subtotal * data[]
    total = subtotal + tax
    
    y -= *inch
    c.drawString(*inch, y, )
    y -= *inch
    c.drawString(*inch, y, )
    y -= *inch
    c.setFont(, )
    c.drawString(*inch, y, )
    
    c.save()
     output_path

HTML Template Approach

from weasyprint import HTML
from jinja2 import Template

invoice_template = """
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <style>
        body { font-family: Arial; margin: 40px; }
        .header { display: flex; justify-content: space-between; }
        table { width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin: 20px 0; }
        th, td { border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 10px; text-align: left; }
        .total { font-weight: bold; font-size: 18px; }
    </style>
</head>
<body>
    <div class="header">
        <h1>INVOICE</h1>
        <div>
            <p>Invoice #: {{ invoice_number }}</p>
            <p>Date: {{ date }}</p>
        </div>
    </div>
    <table>
        <tr><th>Description</th><th>Qty</th><th>Rate</th><th>Amount</th></tr>
        {% for item in items %}
        <tr>
            <td>{{ item.description }}</td>
            <td>{{ item.quantity }}</td>
            <td>${{ "%.2f"|format(item.rate) }}</td>
            <td>${{ "%.2f"|format(item.quantity * item.rate) }}</td>
        </tr>
        {% endfor %}
    </table>
    <p class="total">Total: ${{ "%.2f"|format(total) }}</p>
</body>
</html>
"""

def create_invoice_html(data: dict, output_path: str):
    template = Template(invoice_template)
    
    # Calculate total
    total = sum(i['quantity'] * i['rate'] for i in data['items'])
    total *= (1 + data.get('tax_rate', 0))
    data['total'] = total
    
    html = template.render(**data)
    HTML(string=html).write_pdf(output_path)
    return output_path

Best Practices

Validate required fields before generation
Use templates for consistent branding
Auto-calculate totals (don't trust input)
Include payment instructions and terms
