Order documents are back-office plumbing that nobody notices until they break. Webtoffee WooCommerce PDF Invoices, Packing Slips and Credit Notes Pro automates the whole document flow: invoices attach to order emails, packing slips print in bulk, credit notes generate from refunds, and shipping labels carry barcodes from tracking numbers. From the same WebToffee ecosystem as the Import Export Suite, it is the operational side of running a WooCommerce store.
The 1.7.x line reads like a wish list from warehouse teams: FTP/SFTP cloud storage for documents, barcode values from custom tracking meta keys, invoice due dates, and base64 image embedding that speeds up PDF generation.
