Don't even think about it!
Machine translation is not too bad at present, but it is a specialized field, and is really not very good at translating "un-natural" language to / from English. The kind of language you get on an invoice is not natural, and would probably translate badly.

If you can stick to a few stock phrases, get them properly translated, and insert them yourself in your print form, you should be ok.

If you are translating the invoices for different countries, be aware that the legal requirements as to the content may also change.

Solution 1

In the print form: change the language displayed at runtime by setting
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture to a different CultureInfo.
To change formatting for dates, currency, etc..., use
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture.
