Ah yes! Thank you ND!
Your attachment jogged my memory about there being another editable menu. It works!

It's so confusing that configurable style sheet items are in two locations. In case anyone else has similar issues, below are where to find these editable properties.

From the menu:
Edit/Style Sheets: Colors, Fonts, General, Images, Tables
Edit/Report Options: Display, Display Columns, General, Layout (has editable CSS script)

I guess you were using Fancy Invoice from the Business pull-down menu.  Fancy isn't really a style sheet, but a predefined report template.  You can just manipulate the CSS template under the report option->Layout by adding one more line to the end of the style sheet to specify your image height and width, e.g., img {height: 100px; width: 200px}.  Please see the attached image for details.  I just tried and it works!  Hope this helps!

GNC appears to be controlling the invoice header size based on pixels. My invoice logo image should come out to about 5" wide. At 300dpi its 1495px. To get the image to be 5" wide in the GNC invoice output, I had to reduce it to 513px which becomes an unacceptable 72dpi image. I think I used the "fancy" style sheet template to create my new renamed style sheet. I have played around with all of the included style sheets with the same results. This is why I want to find and adjust the come html code for GNC invoice output. BTW - I'm using GNC version 5.10

If all you need is to adjust the logo image size/pixel resolution, you may want to use an image editor to adjust the size before you load it to the build-in style sheet editor.  Which style sheet did you use in your invoice report?

Thanks ND,
Modifying the style sheet is my first desired approach. So far I have not been able to find the right CSS file and/or html file to modify. GNC seems to have file scattered everywhere.

Although LaTex is quite powerful, but not without steep learning curve.  An easy way would be to modify or create your own CSS style sheet in GNC and generate the report in HTML before you print...

I'm not familiar with LaTex but I may need to check it out since you're the second person to mention it. I don't expect a lot of fancy graphics from Gnucash, but it seems like throwing a simple not pixelated graphic should be simple enough. The rest of the program works fine. I'm looking for simplicity while still looking professional. Thanks.

This probably does not help you much, but what I did was abandon using GnuCash to generate *printed/printable PDF* invoices directly. Instead, I wrote a simple Python script to extract the invoice information and generate a LaTeX source file and then used LaTeX to create PDFs that I could send to my
customers.

That is how to do it. If you want "pretty printed" output, have gnucash "print" to a file, and then use a full powered compositing program to modify that output to your heart's content.

Think about it for a moment. Why should an accounting program include all the capabilities of something like LaTex?
