I did some research and found out that there are converters that can 
merge Pdf and Xml into a Zugferd invoice. Pdf is already output by our 
software, so I will create the XML in Gambas and use Gambas as a glue 
layer to transfer the Pdf and the XML to the converter and get back the 
Pdf/A which is the Zugferd invoice.

Until there this seems to be quite easy.

Things I dislike is that it costs a lot more computing power. I like 
slow computers which do not use much energy. I also dislike the bloated XML.

But what I can't accept at all is a concept that makes it possible to 
show the eyes something other than the real content.

In an invoice??? This is bullshit. Mega bullshit!

I bet some crazy companies then sell some weird M$ AI that promises to 
solve the problem but makes it even crazier.

Alles Gute
