I know that sticking in a contact-related custom field to the invoice template is just "contact.custom_xx" (where xx = custom field id).
We're trying to do the same for a Contribution-related custom field, but the syntax:
contribute.custom_xx or contribution.custom_xx is not working.
Any suggestions?
Tokens are available only for contact related columns - if you want to use contribution related columns as tokens then you need to create an extension and add token hooks for making the values available in tokens list
Please refer to the following link for creating token hooks

Also have a look at the answer to this more recent question about how to add custom Participant and Organisation fields to an invoice.
