Exporting Orders to a Text-Searchable PDF

  • Hello,
    Just came across your plugin which is proving very useful.
    Have been able to export all necessary orders as an EXCEL file which itself is readily searchable via text.
    However, my client doesn’t like EXCEL and prefers to work with PDFs.
    No problem, I thought.
    I switched output to PDF and re-ran export.
    Unfortunately after over half-a-dozen tries with different settings, page sizes, etc. the resulting PDFS don’t appear to be searchable by either Acrobat Reader, Apple Preview or LibreOffice.
    I suspect I’m missing something in front of my nose.
    Kind regards,
    TCB

    Hello

    Can you export fake order and share PDF?

    I’ve just successfully tested text search using Chrome and LibreOffice Draw.
    thanks, Alex

    Unfortunately, I’m on time-crunch and because the exported CSV’s and EXCEL are completely and adequately searchable, I’ve gotten client to agree to use CVS or EXCEL converted to ODS and LibreOffice rather than PDF.

    The Current WooCommerce site is commingled with 10-year-old 9000-page eZine that’s accumulated a lot of technical debt, so I’m exporting all remaining all remaining WC data (primarily Products) and deleting WC entirely from the site. eStore will be rebuilt from scratch on a dedicated server.

    Still, thanks so much for your plugin as it saved me many hours and allowed me to focus on other tasks.

    Do you have or recommend any plugins that can migrate products and/or customers from one WooCommerce site to another?

    Hello

    you can just use standard WordPress xmls to migrate these data.

    backup db at first!
    thanks, Alex
