Common Questions

How do I get a copy of my invoice so my employer can reimburse me?

  1. While logged in, click on your Profile picture and select Settings > Billing section.

  2. You will see a row called "Invoices". Click the View button.

  3. Click the PDF button to download your invoice.

What if I need a custom invoice?

  1. Big Mountain Studio has a custom invoice you can view and save a copy of. 
  2. Enter all of your company's details that you might need for expense reimbursement and then save it as a PDF to submit to your company's accounting department.

Can I copy code out of the book?

  • You can! We have found that you will get better results when using any other PDF reader besides Preview. The Preview app (default PDF reader) doesn't do such a great job with copying and will sometimes paste words out of order. 🤷‍♂️
  • The ePub isn't very good though as it puts quotes around whatever you copy and automatically adds where you got the quote from. There is nothing I can do about this.
  • Your best option is opening the Xcode companion project so you can alter, test, copy, and paste code quickly.
