Adobe Forms function module - downloading the xstring output in PDF file

Hi Guys,
I'm using Adobe forms and fetching its output in an XSTRING PDF format. How can I download this XSTRING output to a PDF file and store on the local file system?
I'm using the following approach to getting a PDF output:
ls_outputparams-getpdf = 'X'.
CALL FUNCTION 'FP_JOB_OPEN'
  CHANGING
    ie_outputparams = ls_outputparams.
* Get the name of the generated function module
  CALL FUNCTION 'FP_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'
    EXPORTING
      i_name     = 'ZADOBEFORM'
    IMPORTING
      e_funcname = lv_fmname.
  IF sy-subrc <> 0.
  ELSE.
*   Call the Adobe Form function module
    CALL FUNCTION lv_fmname
      EXPORTING
        /1bcdwb/docparams  = ls_docparams
      IMPORTING
        /1bcdwb/formoutput = ls_form_output
      EXCEPTIONS
        usage_error        = 1
        system_error       = 2
        internal_error     = 3.
    IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    ENDIF.
  ENDIF.
* Close the spool job
CALL FUNCTION 'FP_JOB_CLOSE'.
Now, the variable LS_FORM_OUTPUT-PDF contains the PDF output in XSTRING. My question is how can I download this as a PDF file to my local machine.
Kind Regards,
Shailesh.

hi guys,
im using all FM to download my PDF adobe but in this part :
ls_spfli-carrid = 'AA'.
ls_spfli-connid = '0017'.
APPEND ls_spfli TO it_spfli.
flag                     = 'X'.
is_address_type          = '1'.
is_address_number        = '22515'.
is_person_number         = '22517'.
is_country               = 'IN'.
*&--- Call the generated function module
CALL FUNCTION '/1BCDWB/SM00000200'
   EXPORTING
*   /1BCDWB/DOCPARAMS        =
     it_spfli                 = it_spfli
     flag                     = flag
     is_address_type          = is_address_type
     is_address_number        = is_address_number
     is_person_number         = is_person_number
     is_country               = is_country
  IMPORTING
    /1bcdwb/formoutput       = fp_formoutput
  EXCEPTIONS
    usage_error              = 1
    system_error             = 2
    internal_error           = 3
    OTHERS                   = 4
I have usage_error knowing that the execution of the function module in SE37 pass successfuly and also the execution of the forms .
in your opinion what can be the problem?
Kind Regards,

    Please go through the forum rules. This has been discussed many times. You can search in the forum for this.
    Infact there is no problem. Just expand that excel cell. You can see the full value. This is standard excel property.

  • Adobe form not saving user-input data into saved pdf file

    Hi forumers,
    I'm a new abap developer and I'm tasked to create an interactive adobe form that will require the user to input data in the form.
    No data is passed and received from PDF, but PDF has to be u2018Fillableu2019. I am able to fill out the form but when I actually save the form, it will be saved as a blank form again. I've seen the relevance of the  LS_DOCPARAMS-FILLABLE = 'X' on this forum and I have incorporated it in my code.

    Not quite yet, I have to say...
    If you check the domain "FPINTERACTIVE", you'll see these values:
                   Print Form
    X     Interactive Form with Additional Usage Rights
    N     Interactive Form Without Additional Usage Rights
    F                                                                
    So, you are not providing "additional usage rights" (Adobe Form Credentials), meaning there could be a problem when you want to use those forms in a Production environment.

  • Using Adobe Forms and document will not convert to a PDF file

    I just purchased the Forms add on pack today and I was able to create a form with no trouble.  I would like to have the form downloaded as a PDF (which is an option in this package) and I keep getting and error message that says Adobe is unable to download the form at this time.  I tried opening and downloading the form on different computers at my work, all generating the same error message.  Is there an Adobe issue, or could this be a security feature that is not enabled on my highly blocked/monitored work computer that I have limited control over?  I can view the form as a link, embedded URL, and web form, just having so much difficulty getting it to open as a PDF, really the only way I want to use this program.  If this is a temporary problem, then I can wait until its resolved, however, if I can never open any forms I create as a PD, the package is useless to me.

  • To download the query output to falt file

    Hi all,
    i have a query which i know will give more than 65k records as the output for a selection.
    i cannot run this query in excel due to its limitation.
    if i run on web i cannot download this as downloading is happening to excel file only.
    The customer ideally wants to download the query result to a text file(csv,tab-delimited etc) which inturn it will upload to MS-Access.
    How do i achieve this?
    SAP has given response use try using these options:
    1.open interfaces to receive the output of a query via the MDX language.
    2.open hub tool as it is designed for big amounts of data.(i suppose this is not possible as i want to download query output not the data target contents)
    how do i achieve my scenario with option 1?
    Are there any alternatives??
    Any useful help will be rewarded.

  • Error while determining the form function module

    Hi everyone,
    We are experiencing problems while displaying one adobe form in ESS. It’s the Travel Expense form (PTRV_EXPENSE_FORM). When pressing the button to “Display/Print” the form we get an error message: "Error while determining the form function module", and no form I shown. The ADS server is configured correctly and there are other forms that are actually working, for example the Travel Request form. We are running WAS 7.0 with SP12.
    Anyone has an idea what can cause the problem? Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    In Travel Reqeust (ECC6/ESS) when i click the Display Form after raising the Travel Request it shows the error
    "Error while determining the form function module"
    Can anyone have idea on this?
    Regards,
    Boobalan

    Hi,
    This error was due to Not supported platforms of ADS (Adobe Document services)
    It was not supported on itanium64 bit processors.
    Please check where the ADS is supported in service.sap.com/pam
    You can use the ADS in the Non-Supported Server by linking it to Supported Platform Server using the SM59 link. This will make the ADS files to work.
    Please refer the ADS Config Doc for details.
    Hope you also solve this problem.

    CALL FUNCTION 'CONTROL_FORM'

    UNOPENED
    The current form function could not be executed, since the form output was no yet initialized using OPEN_FORM.

    >The last used form was closed using END_FORM, but no new form was opened using START_FORM.
    >The last filled page of the current form has no subsequent page. In this case, the system automatically terminates form printing after this page. You need no explicit END_FORM call.
