When the event takes place, there is a list at the entrance with the corresponding codes of the pdf entrance ticket. At least, that's how I thought I could do it, but it turns out to be different? So you have attach serial and pdf serial. Which one should I use and can you please point me to the right documentation? Thanks in advance.")* was created by *[HSD](/forum/user/52655-hsd "View HSD's Profile")* -- HikaShop version -- : 5.1.5 -- HikaSerial version -- : 5.0.0 Dear Hika team, I purchased Hikaserial a while ago and now I'm ready to sell entrance tickets online.

"PDF Serial" creates a PDF. The two plugins have globally the same configuration; one takes a PNG as "template" (an image used as the base and the plugin "print" information on it); the other creates a PDF file (and can also use another PDF as "template"). So you can read the "attach serial" documentation page and you will have the general process for both: [ www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/1...ns-attachserial.html](https://www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/152-hikaserial-plugins-attachserial.html) Now, it looks like you want to generate a PDF, so "PDF Serial" is the one to choose. The starting point is to know if you will use an existing PDF as "template" or you want to start with a blank A4 page and "print" information on it.
