3. Set article lines by using the set_articles() method on the invoice object, eg. invoice.set_articles([{'name': 'Pizza margherita', 'price': 9.99, 'amount': 1}, {'name': 'Pizza fungi', 'price': 11.99, 'amount': 1}])
4. Generate an InvoicePDF object eg. pdf = InvoicePDF(invoice <the invoice object>, invoice_language <the desired print language>)
