Print multiple forms between FP_JOB_OPEN and FP_JOB_CLOSE

I am aware, that there are questions regarding "Printing Multiple forms", but I didn't find answers there.
Still my system is not working as expected:
1. FP_JOB_OPEN is called
2. the generated Adobe Forms function is called multiple times
3. FP_JOB_CLOSE is called
This program doesn't deliver all the pages, but just the first call. How shall I solve this problem?
(Coding should work anywhere with copy-pase.)

      fp_docparams      type sfpdocparams,

Hi ZSOLT,
In order to call the form multiple times please do the following,
1) Just before your FP_JOB_OPEN you need to pass the output parameters (good practice). You can also set other parameters as well (for example nodialog, preview, copies., etc)
CLEAR fp_outputparams.
fp_outputparams-dest = 'PDF1'.      "Default pdf printer
fp_outputparams-reqnew = 'X'.       "New spool request
Now call your FM FP_JOB_OPEN with the above output parameters.
2) Usually this step is processed in a loop. (getting your interface data into a internal table and then looping at it)
But here I am enhancing your example code.
In order to trigger the form multiple times you need to change some input data to the form (for example I have changed date and time below in the prepare test data sections) so that the call function fm_name gets regenerated every time there is new data
data l_datatypes       type sfpdatatypes.
prepare test data
l_datatypes-char = '#'.
l_datatypes-string = 'Auf geht''s! '.    "#EC NOTEXT
l_datatypes-numc = '42'.

Adobe forms -Can we print multiple forms?

i,
Right now my form has an ability to display a single Order with single Header & line items.
Hi,
I want to enhance the functionality to multiple forms prints.I mean I will be having multiple headers and l ine items.
I can fill my internal tables with multiple records data but what are the other form changes should i take care( hierarchy, data, etc...)
In smartforms I was able to do this because there we can define loops.How do we handle it here in adobe forms?
FYI.. I am filling internal table through WD application.Should I do Some context level changes?
Also,
In Dev environment I can see my Bold objects but when i move it to QA they are disappearing & font is also changing.What could be the reason?

Print quality difference between iphoto and aperture...?

when ordering books, is there a print quality difference between using iPhoto and Aperture? or are they sent to the same lab?
it's possible i may have some setting wrong, but when i order a book using iphoto, i never really feel the quality is that great. it's good, i just feel it could be a lot better. the print quality sort of reminds me of newsprint, albeit high quality newsprint. similar sized prints made at home on my basic 3-in-1 printer look better.
thanks...

Previews are what you view on your display. When you import a photo into Aperture (and I'm pretty sure iPhoto as well), your computer automatically generates a preview for quick viewing. The original images are stored in your library, but it is the preview that you see.
In Aperture, you are able to set the size and quality of these previews. When sharing photos between Aperture and iPhoto, the process is as follows:
Let's say that your images are stored in Aperture, but you also want to be able to view them in iPhoto without taking up too much room on your hard drive. Essentially, if you were to import the originals into iPhoto as well, you would be storing two exact, yet separate copies of the same image on your hard drive. As you are aware, with large images (whether JPEG's, and especially RAW) this would put quite a tax on your storage capacity after not too long.
So, you have your images in one or the other (in this case Aperture), but you want to play around with them in iPhoto. What you can do, is open iPhoto, go to the File menu and then select, Show Aperture Library. This will open a window with all of the contents of your Aperture Library. You can then drag any images you want into iPhoto . The only thing is, you are not dragging the original JPEG's, but rather, the previews of those images. If you have those previews set to a lower quality (again for capacity concerns), you will only have lower quality and lower detailed images in iPhoto. These images might not be ideal, or even suitable for printing high quality prints. The previews that you generate in Aperture though can be adjusted to be extremely high quality with no size limits.
My thinking was that since you mentioned Aperture, it sounded like you had experience with working with it and with ordering a photo book through Aperture. I guess you were saying that you ordered via iPhoto, weren't happy with the quality and were wondering if Aperture created books were better.
Anyway, if this is the case, I cannot answer that for you. I have never ordered a book through Aperture. If the quality of your images is good, you should be able to get a decent product no matter where you order it from. There is not doubt that the materials used and the print shop that does the work makes a difference, but if your images are good, you should still get a decent product through iPhoto. Perhaps iPhoto isn't the way to go though if you have had poor experiences with them.
If you haven't used Aperture yet, I would highly recommend it though aside from the photo book aspect of this thread. It is a stellar product.
I hope this helps.

Multiple address between CRM and IS Retail

Hi Gurus,
In CRM we are maintianing multiple address function for 1 BP but Retail does not has, how to link it between CRM and Retail?
regards
Kannan

Hi All,
The major thing is we should not use ISU as stativ and CRM dynalic system. As we all aware When SAP is launching any module or technology its beleives in re-usabilty.
Now the issue data replecation between CRM and ISU-
1. In a utility market if the customer,retailer and the network operator initiate any business flow they should start with CRM as CRM is handling FOP part.It means CRM has not only build only for ISU.
2. In ISU before billing so many things is getting triggered - like new connecion,transfer,move-in,move-out etc....these process cant be done with the CRM business module as I mentioned earlier CRM is not only designed for IS-U
So for a smoother process and with proper business SAP introduced CRM IS-U.
Without replacting the data between CRM and IS-U we cant process the steps which will at last billed a customer.

Multiple display between Mac and Ipad

I have an IPAD with latest IOS system and a Mac with Maverick.
Would multi display works between Mac and Ipad?
If so, where can I found manual or instruction to make it works?
Thanks.

You'd have to use something like DisplayPad to do that. I have it set up on my system and its working great under Mavericks (it wasn't supported under Mountain Lion on my system).
Good luck.

How to print multiple form for tag printing in smartforms

Dear Experts,
I am working on tag printing in smartforms .in tag printing i am showing
1.material no.
2.material descrption.
3.material doc no.
4.Quantity
5.supplier.
my requirement is that for example , if the mat. document no. has a material of 10,000.00 quantity , in tag printing it should come 1,000.00 of each tag and total no of tag should be 10. and it should come one after another .
and the page format size 8 x 6 cm. is it possible .if possible how ! how the system will know how many tag is to be printed . please reply its urgent.

Hi Kumar,
Let me know. is the quantity 1000.00 is fixed? if so thn you can achieve the requirement.
For example:
There are A-material with 20000.00 quantity thn u can first divide the quantity with 1000.00
v_ex = 20000.00/1000.00=20.
thn you can repeat the print of the smartform for 20 times by passing the parameter to form fm.
Please reward if useful.

Adobe Acrobat, Print multiple files to PDF and merge open files to closed files?

I have Adobe Acrobat XI Professional.
Print to PDF – How can this be done for more than 15 documents at a time? Right now, if I select 16 or more documents, I cannot ‘right click’ and choose ‘print’. Is this a setting issue? If I have many documents I need to print to PDF at once, it would be helpful if there wasn’t this limitation. Background: This needs to be done to PDF files created from Adobe Live Cycle (and possibly from other software) because the files cannot be merged unless they are ‘printed to PDF’ first. I don't know an alternate way to merge these files.
Also, if I have a multi-page PDF open and I need to parse out the pages to different files, is it possible to drag the selected pages out of the open PDF and hover over a closed PDF and have them added to the end of the closed PDF document? I don't know of a way to do this, but I thought I would check to see if anyone else was aware of a simpler way to parse pages from one document into several pre-existing documents without opening each and dragging the files between them.
Thanks!

Thank you for your response...I can do the additional step to combine them, the problem that I have is that the documents need to be in chronological order. If I print them to the pdf printer or export them, either way, windows sorts them and they are no longer chronological. While I can organize them when I combine them there are many times that there way too many that need combined into one pdf, making it a very inefficient and cumbersome process to do. So I was in hopes there was a way to just have the pdf printer create one file instead of one for each document, it would keep them in chronological order. I suppose I could number them on the print to keep them chronological - but when there are 75 or 100 documents it is a bit of a pain to sit there and respond to each document as it is being printed, and then need to do the additional step of combining. My goal in this process is to gain efficiency so thought I would see if anyone knew how to use the pdf printer to create the single file.

Printing a form in original- and in an edited-version.

Hi there,
i have a little problem with a form and i'm full of hope someone can help me.
Problem: I need two printed versions of a filled form. One for customer 1 and another for customer 2. This should happen on a single click on a print button. Version 1 is what you see on the screen. Version 2 has some changes. There must be a textchange (textfield: "customer 1" to "customer 2") and a subform that must be hidden. And now there comes the ugly truth: After printing, i need the form in the unchanged version (if you need to change something after printing without refilling the whole form).
Example: In the attached PDF are the main required fields. I want to change the text in the gobal-field "version" (this.rawValue = 'customer 2') and hide the subform "text" on the second page (this subform will allways appear on the last page of the forms).
I'm not getting it. Is it the wrong way? Could it work, if i duplicate the whole form and edit the duplicates?
Is there a way to get my ideas running?
Thanks for your help and please excuse my english.
If you find mistakes, keep them. I don't need them anymore.
Florian

Hi,
Because you have brought the form in from another document, you can not save it as dynamic. You can import a PDF to a flowable layout (dynamic), but the content will come in as static artwork. Sometimes you are better starting from scratch with a new form.
In order to show/hide objects the form needs to be saved as dynamic PDF in LC Designer.
Example attached (new form). The script is spread over a couple of buttons that are hidden to the user.
Good luck,
Niall

Print Multiple forms per Marketing Document SAP B1 2007

When printing the Delivery document, I need to print a Packing list and a Bill of Lading. How can I acheive this in SAP B1 2007? I am hoping there is a way when pressing the Print button that I can have both documents print like when printing and order, having both an Order and a Pick list print.
TIA!!!
Dana

Dana,
You can have multiple Layout pages to the PLD.
If you open the PLD of the Delivery document / any marketing document
and From the Print layout designer Menu click display document properties... Paper format tab, you can add 2 or more pages in the field <b>Number of Layout Pages</b>.
By this you can design the second page of the layout accordingly.

Printed color difference between Pages and Adobe InDesign.

Dear members:
I have created documents in Pages that I later decided to re-create in InDesign.
One problem I noticed is the fact that colors printed on paper don't look the same. I basically copied the RGB values used in Pages for the different colors and used these same values in InDesign. Although on screen colors look the same, on paper they look quite different. In case this information is important I am using an Epson printer model R1800.
Any ideas ?
Thank you again for your help.

Thank you all for your answers. I appreciate your help and input.
