Hello @William-Hatanaka ,
Go to the following path:

Hello @Naresh-webkul,
I could customize this pdf.blade.php file, but if I update Bagisto with a new version of it can my customization be overwritten?
This concern occurs to me when I want to make any changes within Bagisto.
Is there a way to make some changes to the Bagisto without changing the core?

Hello @William-Hatanaka ,
You can create your own package and there you can override the invoices file without changing the core bagisto code .
You should check this link:
https://devdocs.bagisto.com/create_package.html

Thank you.

@Naresh-webkul
Thank you .
And there is a logo that appears in the pdf.blade.php. I was unable to discore the folder and not even the name of the logo file.

<img class="logo" src="{{ Storage::url(core()->getConfigData('sales.orderSettings.invoice_slip_design.logo')) }}"/>

Could you tell me where the logo file should be?
Thank you

Thank you very much

Naresh-webkul

Hello @William-Hatanaka , can you tel me how did you solved it?

Hello @chemisax ,
The problem with unreadable characters was the lack of an installed Japanese font. I found a website in Japanese that taught how to install these fonts for the laravel-dompdf package.

I found a similar site explaining in English.
