Hello Doug
I did not find any form designer.  But, I am thinking the following, so
that the users have some amount of flexibility to design/modify the invoices
- Show the CKEditor for the users - http://ckeditor.com/
- The user designs the HTML invoice with CKEditor
- In the CKEditor, the user places placeholder variables,  like ${name},
${zipcode}, ${invoiceNo} at the desired positions
- Save this HTML along with placeholders
- Process the HTML to replace the placeholder variables.
- Here you can use jquery, if you plan on doing on the browser, to
manipulate the placeholder values.
- However, I want to do this process of creating the final invoice on
server.  I found the following  https://github.com/jawher/moulder-j.
