Answers.Text: Thanks for the (upcoming) documentation, Joanne. I am running civicrm 4.6.3 and the print or email buttons do not show when I view a contribution. I have enabled TAX & invoices. Is there any other requirement for these buttons to show up?

  The 4.6 version of the user guide should be published in the next few days (We are waiting for one more section to be proof read.)
  
  In the meantime here are 3 images containing that information (I can't attach a PDF.)![invoicing part 1](https://i.sstatic.net/r4jdK.png)
