Sapscript and Standard Text - Polish Characters not printing

Hi,
I have created an English Sapscript and translated it to Polish via transaction SE76.
Changing my PC Region and Language settings to Polish allowed me to enter Polish Characters into Hardcoded text in the Sapscript and Standard Text via s010.
I have two problems:
1) With my PC Region and Language settings set to Polish, when I create my sapscript output some of the polish characters that I have entered via SE76 and SO10 do not appear and are replaced by others e.g.
ę is dispalyed as ê
ć is displayed as æ
ń is displazed as #
2) I have a business requirement to be in England Logged with PC Region and Language set to English but to print a sapscript output in Polish. Is this possible.
We are currently on non unicode SAP system.
Please can anyone advise.
Regards

Hello,
SAP discourages mixed code page or MDMP systems and with good reason. If there is any possibility of you upgrading to a Unicode system in the near future you should try to wait for it. Supporting multiple languages in Unicode is easy, in MDMP it can be quite tricky. And MDMP makes the move to Unicode more difficult.
That said, your BASIS team can enable Polish and you can print in Polish while your PC is set for English. The SAPScript/Form must be in Polish or using an INCLUDE that is LANGUAGE 'PL' to let SAP know which code page to use when printing.
Seriously, look at moving to Unicode, you need to do it eventually anyways.

About SAPscripts and smartforms

Hi all,
         I am working on SAPscripts and i have one doubt.
I want to know the concepts how data is communicated between SAP scripts and print program.Suppose I am writing one subroutine. Can i write the form statements in the print program of the script or I have to write it in another program.
         I want whether SAPscript is calling the print program or vice versa.
         Please tell me the same concepts regarding smartforms.
         Please experts provide me a vivid idea so that I can get the concepts clear.
    With regards,
      Abir.

HI
GOOD
AS PER YOUR REQUIREMENT HERE I AM GIVING SOME POINTS RELATING TO SAP SCRIPT AND DRIVER PROGRAM
WHEN YOU R CREATING A SAPSCRIPT FORM IT CANT ABLE TO EXECUTE OF ITSELF, FOR EXECUTION IT NEEDS HELP .THAT IS THE REASON YOU R CREATING A DRIVER PROGRAM.
IF YOU GO THROUGH A DRIVER PROGRAM YOU CAN FIND OUT THAT YOU R PASSING THE SAP SCRIPT NAME AS A PARAMTER.SO YOUR DRIVER PROGRAM IS CALLING YOUR SAP SCRIPT FORM.
USING THE DRIVER PROGRAM YOU ARE PASSING THE APPROPRIATE VALUE FOR THE VARIBALE THAT YOU R GOING TO PRINT IN THE SAP SCRIPT FORM.
=============================
SMARTFORM CONCEPT=>
SAP Smartforms can be used for creating and maintaining forms for mass printing in SAP Systems. The output medium for Smartforms support printer, fax, e-mail, or the Internet (by using the generated XML output).
According to SAP, you need neither have any programming knowledge nor use a Script language to adapt standard forms. However, basic ABAP programming skills are required only in special cases (for example, to call a function module you created or for complex and extensive conditions).
1. Create a new smartforms
Transaction code SMARTFORMS
Create new smartforms call ZSMART
2. Define looping process for internal table
Pages and windows
First Page -> Header Window (Cursor at First Page then click Edit -> Node -> Create)
Here, you can specify your title and page numbering
&SFSY-PAGE& (Page 1) of &SFSY-FORMPAGES(Z4.0)& (Total Page)
Main windows -> TABLE -> DATA
In the Loop section, tick Internal table and fill in
ITAB1 (table in ABAP SMARTFORM calling function) INTO ITAB2
3. Define table in smartforms
Global settings :
Form interface
Variable name    Type assignment   Reference type
ITAB1               TYPE                  Table Structure
Global definitions
Variable name    Type assignment   Reference type
ITAB2               TYPE                  Table Structure
4. To display the data in the form
Make used of the Table Painter and declare the Line Type in Tabstrips Table
e.g. HD_GEN for printing header details,
        IT_GEN for printing data details.
You have to specify the Line Type in your Text elements in the Tabstrips Output options.
Tick the New Line and specify the Line Type for outputting the data.
Declare your output fields in Text elements
Tabstrips - Output Options
For different fonts use this Style : IDWTCERTSTYLE
For Quantity or Amout you can used this variable &GS_ITAB-AMOUNT(12.2)&

Sapscripts and smartforms

Hi,
Please tell me how to do language translations in sapscripts and smartforms.
I want to to each form in 12 languages.
Please help me.
Thanks,
Ravi

Hi
You can assign the language directly by trx SE71 fot sapscript and SMARTFORMS for sm.
In both trx you can see the section LANGUAGE ATTRIBUTES
Here you can create a version of your form for all language you need.
But all these versions'll be as original, so you need to change all texts you've inserted, i.e you have to translate all texts.
For SAPSCRIPT you can do it by SE71 because you can choose the language (so the version) of the sapscript you want to translate, but for the SAMRTFORMS I believe you can only use trx SE63.

Generate Sapscript and convert to DOC

Hello everyone,
I need to generate a. DOC through SAPscript and then save this file in C: \ of the machine.
Can anyone help me?

It may depend on how you did the OCR. On AA 9, I generally use the Searchable Image for setting up the conversion to DOC. I do not remember there being a selection of font types in AA 9 for ClearScan and the result is not a standard font, but a created font that does not convert to DOC (newer versions offer font choices with ClearScan I think). Also, the ability to do the OCR depends on the quality of the copy (or a lot of editing will be needed). There are several things that can be happening in the process and it is not clear what you have done, or the quality of your original. OCR has tended to improve with each version of Acrobat. I was fairly impressed with XI when I got it.

SAPscript and Smart Forms - Going to be phased out?

Thus far, are SAPscript and/or Smart Forms going to eventually be retired? Is there an official document, or Note that says so? I've exhaustively searched through these forums, and the SMP for the PAM and Notes, but I can't find a reference anywhere that will tell me.
I did find where it says:
"Customers can continue to use existing SAP forms solutions such as Smart Forms and SAPscript.
Both solutions will continue to be supported in their current functional scope."
Just want to make sure with my clients.
Thanks!

Hello,
We recently rolled out an SAP's Strategy as far as forms development is concerned.
Here is the official statement:
"The SAP forms strategy is based on SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe (IFbA). This applies to both print and interactive forms. In this context, most Business Suite solutions have already been converted to the IFbA technology (more than 2300 forms), and new standard SAP forms will be created using IFbA instead of Smart Forms or SAPscript.
SAPscript and Smart Forms shall continue to be supported inline with SAP's maintenance strategy, thereby ensuring the ability to protect existing customer investment."
You can also find this on the Smart Forms page in SDN: Smart Forms Overview

Differnce between SapScript And Smartform

hi All,
Can anyone tell me the difference between sapscript and smartforms.Which we have to use
Points rewarded for answer
Harpreet

Hi harpreet,
1. Can anyone tell me the difference between sapscript and smartforms
some practical differences are :
<b>*----
One main difference which is
visibility in the report is TABLES
(in sapscript we cannot design MATRIX like tables,
having grid lines,
but in smartforms, it is much possible to
design tables, having grid lines, color just
like excel table)</b>
a) sapscript requires
    - driver program (se38 program)
    - layout (se71 layout)
   smartforms just require
   smartform,
(and a program is just required for
   selection screen purpose)
b) the logic of printing (ie. sequence, flow)
    is CONTROLLED BY drier program,
   in case of sapscript.
where as in smartform, it is inbuilt using TABLES element.
c) In sapscript we cannot write our own logic for printing.
   where as in smartform,
we can write our own logic for pritning.
(we can even write SELECT Statements, DATA statements,
   and many program lines + logic to suit our requirements)
2 Which we have to use
If we are copying some standard sapscript,
then we have to go for sapscript only.
We can use both. but practically smartforms is easier to
develop.

amit m.

How do we debug a sapscript and a smartform

how do we debug a sapscript and a smartform.

hi,
1) DEBUG Smartform:
One way to debug smartform is to debug the Function Module of that smartforms. If you want to debug particular smartform node that the solution would be, insert a "Program Line" just above the node you want to debug and this program line write a normal abap breakpoint. So whenever you call the smartforms, it will stop at this breakpoint and you can debug onwards.
2). DEBUG SAPScript
They are two ways to debug the SAPScript.
1). Use Tools - Word Processing - Layout Set (SE71). Enter name of layout set and then Utilities - Activate Debugger.
It is of no consequence which layoutset you enter when selecting the SAPscript debugger. (Menu path: Tools-Wordprocessing - Forms, Utilities - Activate Debugger) The next layoutset called will invoke the debugger.
2). Another way to set the SAPScript debugger is to run program RSTXDBUG.
When you debug Print program it is same as you debug any other ABAP program.
While when you debug SAPScript, you actually debug the code ( scripting) you have written SAPScript Form.

Difference between sapscripts and BDCs

what is the difference between sapscripts and BDCs

BDC for data communication between sap to non sap(vice-versa)
where scripts is a business layout(we create)
<b>bdc help</b>
They are the only 3 methods mostly we use in BDC.
Call _Dialog is outdated. it is there in the intial stages of SAP.
BDC:
Batch Data Communication (BDC) is the process of transferring data from one SAP System to another SAP system or from a non-SAP system to SAP System.
Features :
BDC is an automatic procedure.
This method is used to transfer large amount of data that is available in electronic medium.
BDC can be used primarily when installing the SAP system and when transferring data from a legacy system (external system).
BDC uses normal transaction codes to transfer data.
Types of BDC :
CLASSICAL BATCH INPUT (Session Method)
CALL TRANSACTION
BATCH INPUT METHOD:
This method is also called as CLASSICAL METHOD.
Features:
Asynchronous processing.
Synchronous Processing in database update.
Transfer data for more than one transaction.
Batch input processing log will be generated.
During processing, no transaction is started until the previous transaction has been written to the database.
CALL TRANSACTION METHOD :
This is another method to transfer data from the legacy system.
Features:
Synchronous processing. The system performs a database commit immediately before and after the CALL TRANSACTION USING statement.
Updating the database can be either synchronous or asynchronous. The program specifies the update type.
Transfer data for a single transaction.
Transfers data for a sequence of dialog screens.
No batch input processing log is generated.
For BDC:

Difference between HR Forms Smartforms sapscript and PE51

Hai all,
Could anyone give me the exact difference between HR Forms Smartforms sapscript and PE51.
Thanks in advance,
S.Jenibalet.

HR Forms
The Layout Editor can be used is Adobe Designing tool or Smart form Tool.
The HR Forms Workplace (which will be called the Forms Workplace from now
on) will enable you in future to create flexible reports with an attractive layout for HR master data,
personnel time data, and payroll results.
Smartforms
SMARTFORMS as the SAPScript successor tool is also used to generate formatted documents which can contain logos, tables and other formatting objects. And this documents can look like a pre-printed documents that normal ABAP codes cannot possible.The SAP SmartForms replace the SAPscript forms. SAP SmartForms offer the following advantages: 1)Creating and maintaining forms requiring half the time 2) Adapting forms without any programming knowledge due to entirely graphical user interface 3) Web Publishing using the generated XML output Here you will get some SAP SMARTFORMS tutorials and PDF guides to download.
You use SAP Smart Forms to create and maintain forms for mass printing in SAP Systems. As
output medium SAP Smart Forms support a printer, a fax, e-mail, or the Internet (by using the
generated XML output).
sapscript
SAPSCRIPTS are used to generate formatted documents which can contain logos, tables and other formatting objects. And this documents can look like a pre printed documents that normal ABAP codes cannot possible. SAPscript comprises these five components: 1)an editor for entering and editing the lines of a text. 2)styles and forms for print layout. 3)the composer as central output module. 4)a programming interface 5)several database tables for storing texts, styles and forms. Here you will get some SAPSCRIPTS tutorials and Pdf guides to download.
PE51
There are Limitataions for PE51.You can use only for HR module specifically for Payroll.

Difference between SAPScript and Smartforms

Hi all,
Can any body tell me, which of these SAPScript and Smartforms are client independent or client dependent and why?
Thanks in advance....
Sri.

Hi Sri,
SAPScript is client dependent and Smartform is client independent.
So you need to transport the SAPScript from the development client to test client if both are in the same system.
Because Smartform is client independent it will behave like report program.
Thanks

How to get SapScript and Smartform printed in one spool request?

Hello experts,
I want to print the production order package in one spool request.
Print program consists of Smartform and SapScript.
First page is in landscape format with barcode(Smartform) and the rest is in portrait format(Sapscript).
In SAP documentation is written that it is possible for several Smartforms to be printed in one spool request.
Is it possible for 1 Smartform and 1 SapScript called from a single program to be printed in one spool request?
I have tested it with calling first the Smartform control-no_close= 'X' without success.
Can anyone tell me if this is possible and how?
Thank you.
Kind regards,
Danijela

Handling multiple languages in SAPscripts and Smartforms

A lot of our output documents need to be printed in different languages. For e.g. a Sales Invoice would have to be in English, German and French and currently with Sapscripts we create separate output types and separate sapscripts for each one of them but they all share the same driver program.
Is this the easiest way to do this? Can it be made simpler using Smartforms perhaps using standard texts or text elements?

Hi,
IF you open the smart forms.
In form attributes :
We have language attribute.
there is one button "Into all languages" under translation tab.
check this button.Hope it may helpful to you.
Thanks
