 * Hi,
 * I would like to change the language of the invoices to English (instead of Dutch
   like it is now) because most of my customers are English. Is this possible?
 * Thanks in advance!

 * Hi! The invoice is always generated in the language of the site at the time of
   generation. This means that if you switch your backend (or whole site) to English,
   it will create English invoices, and if it’s Dutch, it will create Dutch invoices.
   If you want to do this independently from the site/user profile language, you
   need a more advanced solution like WPML or Polylang in combination with our [Professional extension](https://wpovernight.com/downloads/woocommerce-pdf-invoices-packing-slips-professional/),
   because unfortunately this is quite complex to do.
    That’s a relatively costly
   and high impact solution though, if most of your customers are English and your
   site is also in English (I assume), I would recommend to set your backend to 
   English too, which would be the most simple solution.
 * Hope that helps!

 * My Website language is set as German. But the invoice which is sent on order 
   confirmation is showing in english. How can I fix it?
