ODOO Version 9. When I create a quote and make it a sales order and even an invoice for a client if I want to print them they look UGLY!

Just terrible and unprofessional. The PDF that gets emailed is terrible. When I first started using ODOO they looked nice and professional with a table and formatting. Not sure what changed or happened but now it is all just text. I don't mess around in the backend of things as I don't know the code to make any changes and Live with the defaults. How do I get my printed Invoices to look good and professional again?

Try this:

# any module necessary for this one to work correctly
    'depends': ['base',
                'report',
                'account'],

add 'report' in depends

Ensure you have installed the right compatible version of wkhtmltopdf, which is 0.12.1V for Odoo.

Incase if you had installed wrong version, then execute the following command to upgrade to the necessary version

sudo wget https://builds.wkhtmltopdf.org/0.12.1.3/wkhtmltox_0.12.1.3-1~bionic_amd64.deb

sudo dpkg -i wkhtmltox_0.12.1.3-1~bionic_amd64.deb

sudo apt-get install -f

sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf /usr/bin

sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/wkhtmltoimage /usr/bin
