Print BDS document(in PDF format) from SAP R/3

Hello ,
I have a requirement to print BDS document(in PDF format) from SAP R/3 without user interaction.
In simple way, if I execute the program - PDF document will get printed on local default printer.
Please help me if anybody worked on similar requirement.
Thank you very much,
Liliya

Hi Liliya,
First you should create a smartform for BDS  Layout and give output parameter like this..
  wa_param-langu     = sy-langu.
  wa_param-no_dialog = 'X'.
  wa_param-getotf = 'X'.
  wa_param-DEVICE = '     '.                               " (here you can give the path of your printer)
  lv_output_options-tdnewid = 'X'.                      "Print parameters,
  lv_output_options-tddelete = space.                "Print parameters,
  lv_output_options-tdnoprev    = 'X' .
   lv_output_options-TDIMMED    = 'X' .               " it will give the immediate output of form in given output device
I hope it will help you.....
Enjoy...

  • Print, Save form in PDF Format from SAP

    Hi,
    The business users would like the ability to save, print a form, i.e. a Contract (VA42/43) in a PDF format.  My understanding is, this feature/option is should be available through Goto menu through a feature/option PDF Display which opens the form in a PDF Viewer that allows the user to Print and Save the form in a PDF Format. 
    My question is what is required in SAP to make this feature/option available to an end user, is it a security role, a user parameter, a trigger of a function module...etc.....any help on this would be much appreciated
    Thanks,
    Sean

    Hello Sean,
    you can define local printer as PDF printer (e.g FREEPDF) and print your PDF forms to that printer.
    To be able to generate a form, you can create new printer:
    name: locl_pdf
    device type: PDF1
    Host spool access method: G - front end printing
    This locl_pdf printer will generate a pdf and send to your local printer which is setup for PDF saving.
    Hope it helps,
    Evgenij

  • Trying to print word document in postsript format it gives invalid flavor

    I want to print word document in PDF format or post script format.I have installed PDF writter .This gives exception -invalid Flavor
    Please help me how shall i correct this

    import javax.print.event.*;
    public class PrintPage {

    This mean your printer did not support this DocFlavor.
    Try to find what DocFlavor your printer support.
    // Just check the default one
    PrintService service = PrintServiceLookup.lookupDefaultPrintService();
    DocFlavor[] flavors = service.getSupportedDocFlavors();
    for (int i = 0; i < flavors.length; i++) {

    Hi Ragha,
    SAP has created a standard program RSTXPDFT4 to convert your Sapscripts spools into a PDF format.
    You will get the spool number from transaction SP02.
    Also go through the following document:

  • Error when printing a PDF direct from SAP archive

    Hi together,
    I try to print a PDF direct from SAP archive and I got the error ""C:\Program files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\reader\AcroRd.exe" /p /h" not found. In the internet I found several topics which describe this way to print a PDF without open the Acrobat Reader.
    The customizing for document management (Local application) seems o.k. If I remove in the registry the parameters /h /p for print, Acrobat Reader will open and show the document if I use the print button in SAP.
    Have anybody an idea what the reason is?
    Thank you.
    Regards

  • When I Print a Document to PDF and Save a PDF the format displays differently.

    We use PDF with Microsoft Dynamics GP. When we Print a document to PDF the format of the form is fine. When we SAVE a document to PDF the format is off. We believe we have ruled out application issues.

    We are opening the document with Adober Reader. The same Application was used for both documents.
    This image was printed from the Application to a PDF and opened in Adobe Reader.
    This is the same document from the same application, but when we SAVE to a PDF the format of the gridlines is off.

    Hi papick,
    this may be easier than expected for a million dollar erp system:
    You need a PDF printer.
    When I played around with adobe interactive forms our basis guys created a new printer in SPAD with
    Device Attributes
    Device Type PDF1
    Device Class Stabdard Printer
    location PDF-Frontend printer = Standard printer for workstation
    Access Method
    Host Spool Access Method FF
    Host printer                          PDF
    Then need some expremimenting with Functions
    RSPO_OUTPUT_DEVICEDATA Spool Output Control of an Internal Table with Formatted Data
    or something alike (see function group SPOD)
    Then you should be able to create an entry in spooler (SP01) with spool request type adobe pdf document.
    Sorry, I don't have this problem, thus I did not check out the details yet.
    But I'm convinced it should work that way because the ADS server creates a complete PDF binary and it can be printed using the above described printer - actually a HP Laserjet V was configured as frontend printer and it can print the pdf.
    Regards,
    Clemens

  • Automator Workflow to export Numbers documents in PDF format

    Does anyone know of any automator workflow to export Numbers documents in PDF format? I tried this program: Convert to PDF 1.2
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/automator/converttopdf_mauriziominelli.htm l
    But it gives an error.

    Reading carefully is often useful.
    The description of the tool which you tried clearly states :
    *About Convert to PDF*
    *_Convert all of your text files to PDF_. This action uses the underlying cups printing system ability to convert files, it’s a simple front end to the command line tool cupsfilter.*
    As far as I know, but maybe you don't, *_a Numbers document isn't a text file._*
    I already posted a script exporting Numbers documents as PDF.
    Here is an enhanced version which apply only to Numbers '09 (or maybe higher) :
    --[SCRIPT save2Numbers&PDF.app]
    Enregistrer le script en tant que Script : save2Numbers&PDF.scpt
    déplacer le fichier créé dans le dossier
    <VolumeDeDémarrage>:Users:<votreCompte>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
    Il vous faudra peut-être créer le dossier Numbers et peut-être même le dossier Applications.
    aller au menu Scripts , choisir Numbers puis choisir save2Numbers&PDF
    Le script enregistre le document au format natif de Numbers
    et l'enregistre dans un fichier PDF.
    S'il existe déjà un PDF homonyme, il est renommé en lui ajoutant une chaîne
    construite sur sa date de modification.
    --=====
    L'aide du Finder explique:
    L'Utilitaire AppleScript permet d'activer le Menu des scripts :
    Ouvrez l'Utilitaire AppleScript situé dans le dossier Applications/AppleScript.
    Cochez la case "Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre de menus".
    +++++++
    Save the script
    as a Script: save2Numbers&PDF.scpt
    Move the newly created file into the folder:
    <startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
    Maybe you would have to create the folder Numbers and even the folder Applications by yourself.
    go to the Scripts Menu, choose Numbers, then choose save2Numbers&PDF
    The script saves the document in the native Numbers format and saves it in a .pdf file
    If such a .pdf already exists, it is renamed with a stamp matching its modification date.
    --=====
    The Finder's Help explains:
    To make the Script menu appear:
    Open the AppleScript utility located in Applications/AppleScript.
    Select the "Show Script Menu in menu bar" checkbox

  • Error when opening PDF files from SAP.

    Hi Gurus
    I have posted this question in ABAP Development section also. Please read the below text.
    We are having a strange intermittent problem with Adobe Reader. When we try to open PDF files from SAP Frontend we get an error pop-up. The pop-up does not have any text. The title of the pop-up has "Adobe Reader". There is a blue question mark and an OK button.
    This issue occurs few times a day in Windows Vista.
    This issue does not occur in Windows XP.
    Since past few weeks, we have been trying to find some error/warning/atleast some text in log files of SAP, OS, Adobe Reader, Registry entries, Event Viewer. So far, we have not found anything.
    SAP is not able to help as this issue occurs intermittently and said when they tried, the issue did not occur. They made two attempts and in each attempt they tried 10 times to reproduce the issue. This issue occurs intermittently.
    Environment
    SAP R/3 4.7 EE SAP_Basis 620 Support Package 61
    Windows Vista Enterprise
    Adobe Reader 9.0 and Adobe Reader 9.1 (tried with both versions)
    SAPGUI 710 Patch 12 (latest patch). It also occured in Patch 11.
    Please suggest
    Thank you
    Pavan

    Now I got to capture the screenshot, however not able to attach/upload here but it says:
    'Reading Untagged Documents'
    lets say i tried to open 6 page document then it said:
    'This 6-page document is untagged and must be prepared for reading. While the document is being
    analyzed, your assistive technology will not be able to interact with this application. '
    then it asked for Reading options
    then a checkbox for to confirm 'Always use the settings from the Reading Preferences (Do not show this dialog again)
    then 'OK/START' and 'cancel' buttons
    It seems, this is the problem with Adobe w.r.t Vista.
    thanks
