* fix(pdf): stop an unresolvable template taking the PDF route down
RealisticDemoSeeder::seedEstimate() never set template_name, while seedInvoice()
has always set invoice1. Every demo estimate therefore had '', so
findFormattedTemplate() returned null and EstimateService did $template['custom']
on it -- a 500 on the estimate PDF route, on either driver, since the exception
is thrown before a driver is reached. That is the "Unable to load document
preview" people were seeing.
The seeder now sets estimate1, but seeding was only how this surfaced. The stored
name is validated when a document is saved through the UI and nowhere else:
seeders, imports, recurring-invoice copies and rows predating that validation all
bypass it, and a template can also be deleted from disk after the fact. A name
that cannot be resolved should fall back to the default design, not take the
route down.
PdfTemplateUtils::resolveView() -- already the resolver for payment receipts and
reports -- gains an optional fallback and tries each candidate as custom then
built-in. Both document services collapse to a single call and can no longer
index null. The fallback logs a warning, so a bad name stays visible rather than
being silently swapped.
Also casts two nulls in GeneratesPdfTrait: an address line or custom field that
was never filled in reaches htmlspecialchars() and strtr() as null, which every
PDF render was emitting a deprecation for on PHP 8.4 and would be an error on 9.

* feat(pdf): a command that measures the two drivers against each other
"The PDF looks different" has been diagnosed by eye every time, because nothing
compares the renderers. Asserting on PDF bytes is useless and rendering through
Gotenberg needs a live service, so the suite has never covered it.
pdf:compare renders each stock template through both drivers and reports the
page box, page count and the bounding box of the text on page one, then flags
any template whose ink lands more than --tolerance points apart. It goes through
the real document services, so it exercises the same shared view data and
template resolution a request would.
Two things it has to get right to be honest:
Comparing designs means persisting the template choice -- InvoiceService reads it
back with Invoice::find($id)->template_name, so assigning in memory silently
compares the same design every row. The run happens inside a transaction that is
always rolled back.
Page numbers are turned off for the duration. They are a Chromium capability with
no dompdf equivalent, so leaving them on puts ink at the foot of every Gotenberg
page and drowns out every difference worth seeing -- which is exactly what the
first run of this command did.
Word positions come from poppler's pdftotext, which is on most dev machines but
not in the app container; without it the command still compares page geometry and
says what it could not check.

* fix(pdf): let the two renderers agree on the items table, and drop the shim
Two parts: the stock templates stop doing their own page margins, and the items
table stops relying on a property that does not apply to it.
Page margins. The templates carried their own via `html { margin-top: 50px }`,
which predates page setup owning them. dompdf largely collapses that margin;
Chromium honours it and adds it to the page box, so the same template came out
38px from the top on one renderer and 77px on the other. The html rule is gone
and body is reset instead, which is what makes the page box agree. Headers that
were positioned absolutely at a negative offset -- only possible because of that
margin -- are back in flow.
The items table. Every stock template sets `table { border-collapse: collapse }`,
and CSS says padding does not apply to a table in that mode. dompdf applies it
anyway; Chromium follows the spec and drops it, so the table's `padding: 0 30px`
inset the content on one renderer and not the other. Measured in isolation: with
border-collapse, content starts at x=24.0 on dompdf and x=1.5 on Chromium -- the
full 30px. All of the table's spacing moves to .items-table-wrapper, a plain
block both engines treat the same, using padding so nothing collapses through it
either.
Measured across the seven document templates, that closes the horizontal gap
outright: xMin was 57 on dompdf against 37 on Chromium for five of them, and is
now within 3pt on all seven.
GotenbergStockTemplateCompatibility is removed. Its premise was that dompdf
inflates declared line heights by 1.5x, and that does not hold: rendering the
same text at 12px, 18px, 36px and unitless 1.0/1.5 through both engines gives
line spacing within 0.5pt every time. It also applied its multiplier to the
reports, where line-height 21px pairs with font sizes of 14, 16 and 20px -- so
.report-footer-value at a 1.05 ratio was being blown out to 31.5px, half again
taller than dompdf renders it.
A residual vertical difference remains and is localised, not guessed at: it
accumulates only in the address blocks, which are <br>-joined text emitted by
getFormattedString() with an <h3> in front. Reduced to that construct alone,
Chromium steps 11.25pt per line -- exactly the declared line-height: 15px --
while dompdf steps 14.4pt. That needs deciding on its own terms rather than a
global multiplier, so it is left visible and measurable via pdf:compare.

* fix(pdf): restore the stock template design
Two regressions from the page-setup work, both visible on the page.
The coloured header band stopped bleeding to the paper edges. invoice2 and
estimate2 are built around a full-width band, and it now sits in normal flow at
the top of body, so it only reaches the edge when the page margin is nothing.
#728 defaulted margins to 1.2cm on the reasoning that it matched dompdf's
built-in default and so kept existing output unchanged. That was the wrong
reference: the templates are drawn for a zero margin and carry their own 30px
insets, and Gotenberg rendered them at zero before #728, which is the intended
look. Margins now default to nothing. Setting one still works and is honoured by
both drivers, at the cost of the band no longer reaching the edge.
A bare `0` is valid CSS and the only length needing no unit, so CssLength and
PdfPageSetup accept it -- without that the new default would have thrown on
every render.
The totals block was pushed in from the items table's right edge. Fixing the
border-collapse padding problem moved the table's 30px inset onto a wrapper that
contains the whole partial, so it stacked on the insets the hr (25px) and the
totals container (25px) already had. Those two were always honoured by both
renderers; only the table's own padding was not. The inset now lives on a div
wrapping just the table, and the wrapper keeps vertical spacing only, which
restores the original 30px/25px relationship rather than inventing a new one.
Also drops the negative margin-bottom that pulled the addresses up into the band
and hid "Bill to,", and removes a stray `bottom: 0px` on invoice1's
.header-bottom-divider that combined with `top: 90px` to stretch the rule down
the page.
Checked by rendering, not only by measurement: invoice2 and invoice1 on both
drivers now match the intended design. pdf:compare puts the two renderers within
a few points horizontally on all seven documents, xMin 21-22 and xMax 564-575.
The remaining vertical difference is the address-block line spacing documented
earlier and is unchanged by this.

* feat(demo): make the demo data actually demo the product
The demo company had no address row, and Invoice::getCompanyAddress() returns
false outright in that case, so every seeded document rendered with an empty
company block -- the name only appeared because the header falls back to it when
there is no logo. Several headline features had no demo data at all: zero tax
types, zero notes, zero recurring invoices, zero custom fields.
DemoSeeder, which the test suite and reset:app both run, now creates Acme Inc
with a postal address, tax ids and a country -- the fields the default address
format actually renders. The address is created through the relation, as
CompaniesController does, so company_id is set and type/user_id/customer_id stay
null: Company::address() is an unscoped hasOne, so anything else carrying that
company_id would be picked up as the company's own.
It also stops trusting currency id 1. Migration 2025_08_18 inserts Algerian
Dinar via firstOrCreate() before any seeder runs, so on a fresh migrate+seed the
demo priced everything in "DA". RealisticDemoSeeder already worked around this
for itself; resolving USD by code fixes it at source for reset:app and the tests
too.
RealisticDemoSeeder gains a logo, two tax types, a notes library, custom fields
and an active recurring invoice. Notes are seeded twice over on purpose: the
library and a document's notes column are unrelated in this application -- there
is no foreign key, and is_default only drives a badge in the settings list, so
nothing pre-fills a document with one.
Tax is applied at document level to most but not all documents, so the demo has
a zero-rated example in it. The arithmetic is the caller's: the service layer
trusts whatever amount it is handed rather than recomputing it, so tax is
rounded once off the subtotal and carried through total, due_amount and every
base_* twin -- miss due_amount and a paid invoice renders as part-paid.
Custom fields are on Customer, the only model_type with a create/edit UI end to
end. The PDF renders only model_type 'Item', which would add a column to the
items table and disturb a layout that was just squared up across both drivers.
The logo is a generated Acme mark rather than one of InvoiceShelf's own, which
would read as InvoiceShelf billing the customer.
Also documents both seeders in AGENTS.md. RealisticDemoSeeder was referenced
nowhere outside database/seeders/, which is a poor place to keep the thing that
makes the app look real.

* fix(pdf): tighten the spacing the old absolute header left behind
invoice2 and estimate2 carried three stacked top offsets -- content-wrapper's
60px margin plus address-container's 18px margin and 20px padding -- 98px of
dead white between the coloured band and the first line of content. They existed
because the band used to be position: absolute and out of flow, so everything
below had to be pushed clear of where it visually sat. The band takes its own
height now, so the compensation is just a gap. Collapsed to a single 32px.
Only those two templates had it, which is the tell: they are exactly the two
whose headers were absolutely positioned.
Also pins the margins on the <h3> the address formats emit. Left to the
user-agent default it pushed the company column out of line with the Bill to /
Ship to columns beside it, so the three column headings started at three
different heights. They line up now.
That h3 is also where the two renderers were measured drifting apart, and
pinning it narrows invoice2 from 85.8pt to 72.0pt and estimate2 from 84.4 to
76.8. The templates without a coloured band barely move, which places the rest
of the difference in the per-line spacing of the <br>-joined address lines
rather than in the heading -- consistent with the isolated measurement earlier
(dompdf 14.4pt per line against Chromium's 11.25pt) and still open.

PdfDriver and ResponseStream existed but nothing implemented them. The factory
returned the vendor dompdf wrapper for one driver and a bespoke class for the
other, so the two were never held to the same shape. Three things had slipped
through that gap.
Report PDFs answered 403 for everyone. The five report routes carry no company
header, so ScopeBouncer is not in their middleware stack and the ability scope
was never set; 'view-financial-reports' is stored scoped to a company, so the
check could not pass. They now scope to the company named in the URL. The policy
still checks membership, so this grants nothing new. Also firstOrFail() on the
hash lookup, so an unknown company is a 404 rather than a 500 on a null.
Report downloads were fatal on Gotenberg. GotenbergPdfResponse had no download(),
and the report controllers are its only callers. Added, alongside stream() and
output(), with the whole set now on the interface.
Streamed documents carried an HTTP preamble. GeneratesPdfTrait wrapped
$pdf->stream() -- already a Response -- in another response()->make(), which
stringified it and prepended "HTTP/1.0 200 OK" plus headers to the file. Readers
scan the first kilobyte for %PDF so nobody noticed, but the bytes were malformed.
Passing ->output() fixes it, and the render test now asserts the position.
Two driver-parity settings, both checked against a real gotenberg:8 rather than
inferred: emulateScreenMediaType(), because Chromium defaults to print media
while config/dompdf.php renders as screen, so a @media print rule applied on one
driver and not the other; and printBackground(), which turns out to affect only
the root background, since Chromium paints element backgrounds either way. No
stock template sets a body background, so that one changes nothing today and is
here to keep custom templates consistent across drivers.

Services/Integrations/ExchangeRate/ and Services/Pdf/ were both mostly Support-shaped: interfaces, abstract classes, static factories, concrete adapter drivers, DTOs, and exceptions — infrastructure that doesn't carry business logic. They only each had one real DI-injected service mixed in.
This commit applies the same Services=DI-business-logic / Support=stateless-plumbing rule we've been using throughout the reorg:
**Moved to Support/Integrations/ExchangeRate/** (7 files): ExchangeRateDriver (abstract), ExchangeRateDriverFactory (static), ExchangeRateException, and the four concrete drivers (CurrencyConverter, CurrencyFreak, CurrencyLayer, OpenExchangeRate). These are HTTP adapters over third-party currency APIs — same shape as the Hashids library wrapper classes already in Support.
**Moved to Support/Pdf/** (6 files, merging with existing Pdf utilities): PdfDriver (interface), PdfDriverFactory (static), PdfService (static facade), GotenbergPdfDriver, GotenbergPdfResponse (DTO), ResponseStream (interface). The Support/Pdf/ dir now contains the full PDF rendering subsystem — drivers + sanitizer + template/image utilities.
**Promoted to Services/ root** (the real DI services): ExchangeRateProviderService (CRUD for ExchangeRateProvider model) and FontService (font package install/download orchestration). Both are proper DI services — instance methods, model writes, HTTP side effects.
Services/Integrations/ and Services/Pdf/ are now empty and deleted. Services/ holds only DI-injected classes; Support/ holds all the plumbing.
17 files renamed (git detects 90-99% similarity), 4 consumer files updated (DriverRegistryProvider, PdfServiceProvider, ExchangeRateProviderController, FontController, GeneratesPdfTrait, test). 350 tests pass, Pint clean.
The app/Services/ directory had grown into 22 flat files at the root plus 7 uneven subdirectories — finding anything required scrolling through an alphabetical mix of small CRUD services, infrastructure drivers, and install-time utilities. This commit groups services by domain, folds Backup into a new Storage namespace, and moves framework-infrastructure and install-time helpers out of Services and into Support where they belong.
New Services layout: Documents/ (Invoice, Estimate, RecurringInvoice, Payment, Expense, Transaction, DocumentItem, SerialNumber, Currency — matches the 'Documents' navigation group); Company/ (Company, Member, Invitation); Mail/ (MailConfiguration, CompanyMailConfig); Storage/ (FileDisk, plus Backup folded in). ExchangeRateProviderService moves next to its drivers in ExchangeRate/; FontService moves into Pdf/ where it belongs. CustomerService, ItemService, CustomFieldService stay at the Services root as standalone single-file domains.
Moves to Support/: Hashids/ (library wrapper — not business logic); Setup/ (one-shot install-time utilities — stateless helpers); Pdf/ (ImageUtils, PdfTemplateUtils, plus the existing PdfHtmlSanitizer consolidated into the same subdir). These are all framework infrastructure and stateless utilities — the 'service' label never really fit them.
Namespace declarations in 29 moved files updated to match new paths. 62 consumer files (controllers, other services, tests, database factories, seeders, routes, bootstrap/providers.php) have their use statements rewritten via a literal-string replacement script — no regex meant no risk of half-matching. Three Documents services needed an explicit 'use App\Services\Mail\CompanyMailConfigService' added because the same-namespace short reference they relied on no longer resolves after the split.
Verified: composer dump-autoload, 350 tests pass (850 assertions), vendor/bin/pint clean, npm run build succeeds.
Mail DEFAULT_DRIVER changes from smtp to sendmail; DRIVER_ORDER is reshuffled so sendmail is the head of the list on fresh installs. This matches what most self-hosted installs already have working out of the box — SMTP requires provider credentials the typical user doesn't have set up yet. The mail config description is rewritten to drop the 'Laravel' framework reference and to explicitly tell unsure users to leave it on sendmail.
SiteApi::get() now catches GuzzleException (the broader interface) and returns null on network failure instead of bubbling the exception object — callers were treating a non-array return as 'marketplace unavailable' anyway, so null is the correct shape.
main.ts exposes the Vue runtime on window.__invoiceshelf_vue so module JS (compiled against the host's Vue install) can call createApp / defineComponent without re-bundling Vue. invoiceshelf.css adds Tailwind source globs for Modules/**/*.{js,ts,vue,blade.php} so module-contributed classes are picked up by the host CSS pipeline.
Installation wizard PreferencesView was already in the tree waiting for the API field rename (date_formats, time_zones, fiscal_years, languages) that landed in setting.service.ts; this commit catches both sides up together.
Every main_menu entry moves from numeric group (1/2/3) to string-based group + group_label + priority. Groups now carry their own i18n label and child entries are sorted by an explicit priority field instead of config-array order, so module-contributed menu items can slot into any existing group at any position.
BootstrapController merges module-registered menu items into main_menu (previously they lived in a separate module_menu response key) and introduces a user_menu response key for items modules want to place in the avatar dropdown. The global store follows suit: moduleMenu becomes userMenu, menuGroups is a computed that sorts by priority, and hasActiveModules drops out.
New admin Appearance setting page with a single toggle for whether sidebar group labels render — so instances that prefer a compact sidebar can hide the Documents/Administration/Modules headings without losing the grouping itself. CompanyLayout watches route meta and re-bootstraps when the admin-mode flag flips so the sidebar repaints with the right menu on navigation across the admin boundary.
Test suites updated: module menu merging is asserted against main_menu (name: 'module-{slug}') rather than the old module_menu response; HelloWorldIntegrationTest verifies the schema translation path; CompanyModulesIndexTest covers the display_name attachment.
Closes the residual surface from the three published SSRF advisories (GHSA-pc5v-8xwc-v9xq, GHSA-38hf-fq8x-q49r, GHSA-q9wx-ggwq-mcgh / CVE-2026-34365 to 34367) that the original 2.2.0 fix only covered for the Notes field. The same blade templates render company/billing/shipping address fields with {!! !!} via Invoice/Estimate/Payment::getCompanyAddress(), getCustomerBillingAddress(), getCustomerShippingAddress() — and those flow through GeneratesPdfTrait::getFormattedString() which did not call PdfHtmlSanitizer.
Customer-controlled fields (name, street, phone, custom-field values) are substituted into address templates via getFieldsArray() without HTML-escaping, so a malicious customer name like "Acme <img src='http://attacker/probe'>" reaches Dompdf as raw HTML through the address path. Today this is blocked only by the secondary defense of dompdf's enable_remote=false; if a self-hoster sets DOMPDF_ENABLE_REMOTE=true for legitimate remote logos, the address surface immediately re-opens.
Move PdfHtmlSanitizer::sanitize() into the chokepoint at GeneratesPdfTrait::getFormattedString() so all four sinks — notes plus the three address fields, on all three models — get the same treatment via a single call site. v3.0's models (Invoice, Estimate, Payment) already had the simpler getNotes() shape (no per-method PdfHtmlSanitizer wrapper), so the trait edit alone is sufficient — no model edits required on this branch. Verified getFormattedString() is only called from PDF code paths (no email body callers, which use strtr() directly).
This is the v3.0 counterpart to master's f387e751. Re-implemented directly on v3.0 instead of cherry-picked because the import-block divergence from the larger v3.0 refactor produced four merge conflicts that were noisier than just porting the chokepoint change manually.
Extends tests/Unit/PdfHtmlSanitizerTest.php with three new cases covering the address-template scenario, iframe/link tag stripping, and on* event handler removal. All 8 tests pass via vendor/bin/pest tests/Unit/PdfHtmlSanitizerTest.php.
Bundle Noto Sans (Regular/Bold/Italic/BoldItalic) under resources/static/fonts/ as the default PDF face — it covers Latin, Cyrillic, Greek, Arabic, Thai and Hindi out of the box, replacing the limited DejaVu Sans fallback. Move all @font-face declarations into app.pdf.partials.fonts and include it from every invoice/estimate/payment/report template, dropping per-template font-family hardcodes and the conditional Thai locale include.
Introduce FontService + FontController to download static Noto Sans CJK packages (zh, zh_CN, ja, ko) from life888888/cjk-fonts-ttf on demand. GeneratesPdfTrait::ensureFontsForLocale primes the family before rendering and the partial emits @font-face rules for installed packages so dompdf resolves them through standard CSS — no separate registerFont() instance required. Static TTFs are mandatory because dompdf's PHP-Font-Lib does not parse variable fonts (fvar/gvar tables), which is why Google Fonts' NotoSansTC[wght].ttf rendered empty boxes.
Expose status/install via /api/v1/fonts/status and /api/v1/fonts/{package}/install with matching FONTS_STATUS / FONTS_INSTALL constants in scripts-v2/api/endpoints.ts. Flip DOMPDF_ENABLE_REMOTE default to true for remote asset loading.
Replace duplicated switch/case blocks across 4 methods with a clean
abstract driver pattern:
- ExchangeRateDriver (abstract): defines getExchangeRate(),
getSupportedCurrencies(), validateConnection()
- CurrencyFreakDriver, CurrencyLayerDriver, OpenExchangeRateDriver,
CurrencyConverterDriver: concrete implementations
- ExchangeRateDriverFactory: resolves driver name to class, with
register() method for module extensibility
Delete ExchangeRateProvidersTrait — all logic now lives in driver
classes and ExchangeRateProviderService. Adding a new exchange rate
provider only requires implementing ExchangeRateDriver and calling
ExchangeRateDriverFactory::register() in a module service provider.
Relocate all 14 files from the catch-all app/Space namespace into proper
locations: data providers to Support/Formatters, installation utilities to
Services/Installation, PDF utils to Services/Pdf, module/update classes to
Services/Module and Services/Update, SiteApi trait to Traits, and helpers
to Support.
Extract ~1,400 lines of business logic from 8 fat models (Invoice, Payment,
Estimate, RecurringInvoice, Company, Customer, Expense, User) into 9 new
service classes with constructor injection. Controllers now depend on
services instead of calling static model methods. Shared item/tax creation
logic consolidated into DocumentItemService.

* Convert string references to `::class`
PHP 5.5.9 adds the new static `class` property which provides the fully qualified class name. This is preferred over using strings for class names since the `class` property references are checked by PHP.
* Use Faker methods
Accessing Faker properties was deprecated in Faker 1.14.
* Convert route options to fluent methods
Laravel 8 adopts the tuple syntax for controller actions. Since the old options array is incompatible with this syntax, Shift converted them to use modern, fluent methods.
