Smartform - text not printed bold

Hey guys, hope anyone can shed some light on this.
We have invoices with a smartstyle attached, using font Verdana.
Some texts are marked as bold in the smartforms.
Now, my problem:
When printing from any environment (DEV, PRD) using one of the printers configured in SAP, text marked as bold is not printed in bold.
When printing the same invoice using LOCL, and sending it to the exact same printer from windows, text marked as bold is printed in bold.
So I guess it's not the form, it's not the style, it's not even the printer: just the printer settings in SAP.
In many ways, it is very similar to the issue addressed in this thread:
[Printer Setting|Printer Setting] , except that when previewing the text doesn't show as bold.
My question is two-fold:
- How likely is it that this issue is related to the printer configuration (and thus, basis config)?
- If yes to the above, how do I verify this? I need something solid, since the SAP basis guys aren't very cooperative and keep pointing out that it's either the smartform or the smartstyle - without researching themselves
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I think its the issue of the basis people,they need to make the settings. We had a similar problem here,we had to change the printer settings in SPAD,affter the basis peole had made the settings for us, for taking printout in hindi.
Thanks.

Smartforms-Text not printing completely

Hi!
In my invoice printing one of the item columns which shows the text for the material description is getting trunctaed. Those ar elong texts but when we print it only 70 caharactrs appear and the rest gets cut and dosent show on the form . The text is stored in a variable g_kdmat whose associated type is TDLINE whose lenght is 132 but I dont understnd why only 70 characters appear in my invoice printing. Can anyone help me out with this please. Urgent please.
Thanks

My coding for extracting the text is as folows:
data: l_werks like vbrp-werks,
      l_hlmat type ZHLMAT,
      l_kunnr like vbak-kunnr,

      l_product_key type TDOBNAME,
      lt_lines type table of tline,
      ls_lines type tline.
Get kdmat, not exist then get material sales text, not exists then Material

**get from kdmat
fill g_hlmat
if gs_gen_del-uepos = '000000'.   "BOM Main
   g_hlmat = gs_gen_del-material.
   l_hlmat = ' '.
else.
   l_hlmat = g_hlmat.
endif.
get g_kdmat, g_kdmtx
select single werks into l_werks from vbrp
     where
     vbeln = gs_vbap-vbeln and
     posnr = gs_vbap-posnr.

    parvw = ' ' and
    kunnr = l_kunnr and    "sold to
    matnr = gs_gen_del-material and
    werks = l_werks and
    hlmat = l_hlmat.
endselect.

    read table lt_lines into ls_lines index 1.
       move ls_lines-tdline to g_kdmat.
Remove sapscript special characters
       replace: '<(>' in g_kdmat with ' ',
                '<)>' in g_kdmat with ' '.
       exit.
endif.

   vbeln = gs_vbap-vbeln and
   posnr = gs_vbap-posnr.
if sy-subrc <> 0.
g_kdmat = 'No Product service !!!!!'.
endif.
I fail to understand why the entire text is not coming , when the window size is ok and text has place to flow into subsequent lines. Is it something to do with the associated type in global data or somet8ing else.
Thanks

SmartForm Text not printing from SAP printer but prints on LOCL

I have a smartform that looks great on the screen and if i print locally ( default printer). When i print it on an SAP printer the text is not readable. It looks like barcodes or that the text is stretched about 1 inch high. The data that doesnt print is only in the table sections. if i increase the font size to 10.0 it prints but is too large for the form. Any suggestions? I could send a PDF of the document if you wish.
Dave Baxandall

Hi,
What is the printer model and what devce type is defined in the output device for the SAP printer? Perhaps the device type used doesn't support the font size. Check via SE73 -> Printer Fonts -> < Device type>.

Smartforms lines not printed

Hi,
    I am using 4.6c.I have designed a smartform using templates.I have choosed the frames patterns in templates.In print preview everthing is perfect,but when i try to print this,Its showing only the texts.The lines were not printed.Its a complex format,So i used templates to do that.
Actually we dont know whether this an ABAPER problem or basis problem.
Cany anyone help me with step by step procedure what to do this.Because this is urgent.I have taken a copy in laser printer,Dot Matrix printer too.
But in no printers the lines are coming

hai,
     i also faced the same problem.
     i think basic problem..
anyway i will say how i managed,
1. just create window (width of the window should be .04)
      in output option of window -->in preview select the one sided line(right or left).
2.create a text in that window with simple dot(.) in text editor (window will not appear without any content in it so to provide some text we have provided dot(.) ).
3. place the window where u want line.

Header text not printed for scheduling agreement

Hi All,
I have issue with header text print out for scheduling agreement (SA).
In SA when I am manually writing some note and then taking print out, system is giving me correct output with maual note.
I have one standard text (ST) which I need to be printed in evry SA, so in SPRO I created new head text for vendor and in copying rule for text for SA, I created linkage of SA header text with Vendor head text.
In vendor master, I inserted ST in newly created vendor header text.
So now when ever I create new SA for vendor system will determin header text from vendor master.
Now after creating SA when I check the SA, I am able to my ST in SA, but at the time of print out this ST in not printing.
Please let me know what could be the reson.
Regards,
Sameer

I dont understand about what you mean by expand.
When you a print PO, PO text (header or item) it will check to the configuration setting.
The system didnt care if its adopted from vendor master or info record, or whatever you make in the copying rule.
In your case : you create a standard text then it get copied into PO , then you set the standard text to the PO for print out, example the standard text : word is
"xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
Then in the PO the text appear will be like below(the same, because it get copied)
"xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
If you configure it in define text for SA, then it the print out it will also (the same)
"xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
So what text need to expand?

Pls help !

Hi,
Data is li_lines internal table. 1st you have to read the text form the internal table line by sy-tabix.
At last you have to concatenate these variable into the out tab value.
you can use the following code
ORM fetch_table_data TABLES in_tab STRUCTURE itcsy
                             out_tab STRUCTURE itcsy.
TABLES EKKO.

          ld_txt1(163),
          ld_txt2(163),
          ld_txt3(163),
        END OF header.
DATA: li_lines LIKE STANDARD TABLE OF tline WITH HEADER LINE,
        ID like THEAD-TDID,
        TNAME LIKE THEAD-TDNAME,
        TDOBJECT like THEAD-TDOBJECT.

IPhoto 6.0.6 text not printed on cards and book

All texts are missing except the text on the cover of the book. What can it be ?

Welcome to the Apple user discussion forums
Report the problem to Apple - they will refund your cost and may have a solution
US page - you probably should search for the returns page for Belgium - http://www.apple.com/support/photoservices/returns/
Did you preview the book and the card before sending - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 ?
Doe the preview show the text?
Is there anything unusual about the text that did not print?

Some text not printing when printing from FM8 to Pdf

We have recently upgraded to Acrobat 9 and now have problems with some Helvetica text not showing up in the pdfs. If we change the text to Arial it prints. Changing/substituting Arial for Helvetica is not an option since these files are structure using modules built by a 3rd party. This is obviously an issue with Framemaker8 and Acrobat 9 so my hopes are that someone else has had this issue and has a fix.

Thanks Art. Sorry, I looked through the forum and didn't see any Q&A on missing text in Pdfs. We are on Windows XP working files from our desktop and our server. Our normal method of producing pdfs is through File>Print using our minor customized pdf settings for screen viewing and hires printing (we've used these settings for years). Since our upgrade to Acrobat 9 we are now using Distiller 9.2.0.124. I've also found out since I first posted my question that we are not on the latest version of Framemaker8. I will run the updates to get us to the latest version of 8 and see if that fixes what seems to be an incompatiblity issue between FM8 and Acrobat 9. I say that because this problem started when we upgraded to Acrobat 9. If that doesn't fix the problem, I'll get back to you to find out more about the Microsoft printer Hotfix. Unless you know for a fact that FM8 is not compatible with Distiller 9.2.0.124, in that case we'll need to upgrade to FM9.

Smartforms data not printed

Hi,
I was creating a smartform and it is printing the layout correctly..
But at the right end corner now i want to display the address from the db table.SAo i captured in the internal table and the values stored properly in inthernal table.
But the value is not shown in the print preview while we see in the right end of the form..
But wheni type something there manually it is showing properly..
The value properly coming in internal table,but it is not shown in the print preview.Cananybody help me in this issue

Hi,
If the values are getting from the table or dynamic text it wont show on print preview...you have write a program for this and pass all your data to internal table and use that internal table in the smartform.
What ever you type manually that means static text will appear in the print preview.
So try to write a print program and check the output,data will appear in the output.
Thanks,
Sree.

SAP SCRIPT Header text and Item text not printing in customized PO

Hello Experts,
                      I have copied the standard MEDRUCK to ZMEDRUCK and customized the form according to the requirement.
I want to print the header text and Item text in my form.
For Header text I have used :
/: INCLUDE &EKKO-EBELN& OBJECT EKKO ID F01
Problem 1: The text what I enter in header text is flowing only when I hit on print preview without saving the form. Once I save the SAP SCRIPT and click on print preview the field is appearing blank. I also tried to print the form, but the field is appearing blank even on the print out.
Problem 2: For item text the field is concatenation of EBELN & EBELP. Can anyone suggest me how to concatenate and fetch the text in item text.
