    You can change numbers to words in PHP:

    $a = new NumberFormatter("en", NumberFormatter::SPELLOUT);
$letter_amount = $a->format(152345);

    will give $letter_amount the value: "one hundred fifty-two thousand three hundred forty-five"

    But I don't think there is a way to use that directly in your PDF template.

    So, I would add a read-only text field in the module (you don't need to display it in the view if you don't want to) and add a before save logic hook that populates that field with the value returned by the format function above.

    Then use that new text field in your PDF.

    Maybe someone else has a better solution?
