Invoice class: how to change currency












4















I just wondering if anyone familiar with the invoice class could show me how to change the currency from dollars into pounds. Below is the code needed-I wish to change the dollars in the table into pounds. Note that I got this file from this link. The invoice.cls file is needed to compile this document. I've had a look at this link but it doesn't really explain how to do this in other currencies.

The use of dollar signs is hard-coded in the template as $. If you want a complete replacement of $ with £, you can add



renewcommand{$}{pounds}


to your preamble.
