About form printing....

hi all,
i have desined a layout for the form but i am getting the varintion in in the layout print preview... i.e., if i use LP01 as printer i am getting the lineitem in in single line for one lineitem, if i use LOCL as a printer lineitems are getting displayed double line for one line item ...
why is it so... please reply me if any one knows about this.
rewardpoints are awarded...
regards,
basha.

LOCL is local Printer, If so you should use SAPWIN device type and make sure the driver is installed correctly on the local PC. Please check Note 128105 - Frontend printing (collective note) for more information.
For more understanding, go through the below information...
LOCL - Local printer which you have installed in our computer.
LP01 - Standard SAP printer. This is the default printer if you havent specified any LOCL printer.
If LOCL is available, then LOCL overrides LP01.
Close the thread if your question is answered.

About include text in sapscript form printing

hi experts:
I am learning about form printing,the control command-include,for example:INCLUDE ZTEST OBJECT TEXT ID ST.
the question is:how to ceate the text?
thanks

Hi,
Standard text are used to include a Fixed Note or Rules or regulation document in SAPSCRIPT.
You can include this text any where in your SAPSCRIPT, just by using include text.
It is created in SO10 transaction, Where you can create the standard text. Object Name --> Starting with Z, Text ID --> ST, Language --> EN
Just enter the text you want to display inside the editor and save it.
Then go to sapscript editor --> in Menu Include --> Text --> Standard.
It wil get included.
Hope this may be useful..

Formatting Long Text gets disturbed during Adobe form Printing

Hi Guru's,
I have developed Adobe Form for PM work Orders (IW32) printing using Code u2018SFPu2019. The Order Contains order Long Text or Operation Long Text.
In my case the user maintains some table like structure in the Long text .e.g. ( Here the tab means the actual space and the text length can vary. So basically he will draw a table cells one below another by adjusting tab's)
Text 2 Tab Tab |___|___|
Te TabTab Tab |___|___|
I am reading this using READ_TEXT and it gets perfectly read.( I mean the tab positions will be intact. Also it will remain intact by the time ADS will get called)
When i submit this for generating Adobe Form the formatting of the tab positions gets disturbed and it prints something like
Text 2 |___|___|
Te |___|___|
How to keep the Tab positions intact while printing the Adobe Form? For SAP script printing it comes perfectly but for Adobe form printing it gets disturbed. Any idea how to handle this situation?
Thanks
Pradeep

Tough request!
You have to calculate the widths of texts so that to determine to which tab position refers each tab character.
You might print the sapscript to OTF format, and read the OTF to get the exact positions (based on top left border of the page).
But now comes the second big issue: how to position a text in Adobe form at a dynamic position. That, I don't know. You might ask a question about this 2nd issue in forum

Error message about forms when ID exported PDF is opened in Reader

I'm using ID CS2.
Has anyone successfully made navigation buttons on an exported PDF that doesn't produce an error message about forms when opened in Adobe Reader?
There's an Adobe page about this that says it's caused by having a stroke too near a link field, but I can't seem to avoid the message if I place more than one button anywhere on a page. I've spent a lot of time playing with this and can't seem to find a workaround.
Am I a sucker? Is anyone else trying to use this function other than me? It seemed like the perfect solution to this project I produced and now whenever a user opens the PDF they are greeted with a confusing message that has absolutely nothing to do with the functionality of the document.

Well, everything in those PDFs were form fields. You can make form fields in Acrobat - and then you can right-click on 'em and change their appearance, whether or not they'll accept rich text input, whether or not they'll scroll, and so on. It could also be done in LiveCycle Designer, for what it's worth. I wrote a now-obsolete post about this in response to yours before Mike showed up with this video.
Probably most of your work on your designs in InDesign would need to be trashed; you'd need to rebuild the whole thing in Acrobat or LiveCycle. I have to say that, unless your targeted documents are extremely simple, that this is one of the worst document translation workflows I've ever seen in the last fifteen years. It might work - I'm trying to keep an open mind, here - but if you have any non-Latin-script languages in your target list, or if print reproduction is what you're after, or if you're expecting tracking revisions to the translations to be anything but a nightmare, I would suggest that you test this method inside and out before progressing any further.

Adobe forms prints part of one page 6 times on a sheet of paper

I am attempting to print a completed web based Adobe form and the 8.5x11 page prints part of the page about 6 times on one sheet of paper. This has happened before on Adobe documents and I was able to get around it by saving the PDF file (downloaded from a home utility website) then opening it in Adobe Reader XI and printing it. This time I do not have the ability to save it since I filled out an Adobe form (the system will not let me save the completed form as a PDF file.) My system: iMac 27-inch Late 2009; OS: OS X 10.9.4; Adobe Reader: XI, version 11.0.07; Printer: Canon Pixma MP490 (verified I have the latest drivers)
Print preview shows the document the way I would expect it to print.
The last time I called we never resolved the issue: Apple points to the printer or Adobe, Adobe points to the computer or the printer, and Canon points to the computer or Adobe.

When I first open the form on the web it appears to be an Adobe file, but still on the web via Safari.
Even before I try to save the file there is a message at the top of the screen that reads, "Please fill out the following form. You cannot save data typed into this form. Please print your completed form if you would like a copy for your records." BUT, when I just saved a blank copy of the form to my desktop, opened it in Adobe Reader XI, filled in the form and then printed it the form printed nicely. Problem resolved, or at least a work-around handles the problem easily
It is frustrating that I cannot print directly from the Adobe file via Safari; i.e., I have to experiment to find a solution instead of just hitting the print button (yes, I'm lazy!).
Thank you!!

HT4356 Fillable pdf in Adobe Acrobat Professional X but when I try to use the Airprint feature the form print minus the field data, have anyone been able to resolve this issue?

I have developed a fillable pdf in Adobe Acrobat Professional X but when I try to use the Airprint feature the form print minus the field data, have anyone been able to resolve this issue?

Hi,
I had a similar problem and found help for it. Go to the "Advanced" menu and select Extend features in Adobe Reader. That will enable rights which may resolve your problem. If that doesn't work, there is a really helpful guy in here, Robert Levine. You may want to ask him directly.
Good Luck

Adobe Form - Print page at the end for every record of a Z table with Text

Hello friends, I am facing a challenging here and I need to develop the following below. Mind you, I don't have much exposure/experience with Adobe Forms
Scenario: Standard REAL ESTATE Contract Form
I have a Z table containing RENTAL OBJECTS, in my case 3 records and I want, at the end of the form print one page like below to each record that i have in my Z table.
"Dear Z-field1 one, regarding your contract for Z-field2, Address Z-field3, blah blah blah"
In essence, print a page for each one of them at the end, with the text above using the fields from the z table.
I searched the forum and couldn't find any thing like it.
If someone can help it would be much appreciated.
Thanks, Marco

Hi Marco,
You must be having the ztable fields in the context or in the data heirarchy of the adobe form.
Assume that your main form is on the page1.
Create a table bound to ztable with 3 rows in it and make it invisible on the form.
Below the form create 3 pages page2, page3 and page4.
Create a ISR text display and on the initialise event write the code such as:
this.rawValue = data.page1.Table2.Row1.Cell1.rawValue;
Create as many ISR texts as you want and initialize it using the above method.
Page1
form
Page2
Row1 values
Page3
Row2 Values
Page4
Row3 Values
Hope this helps.

I can't print my PDF form after it is filled out. Only the form prints not the text that I put in

I can't print my PDF form after filling it out. Only the form prints and not the text I put in.

That's a limitation of Apple's AirPrint framework that Adobe Reader depends on. We are considering an alternate solution that may resolve this issue though.
Thanks for your feedback.

Forms 6i prints ugly when using the Forms print command from the menu

When we use the Oracle Forms print built-in to print the screen-shots, the print-out turns out to be ugly with lots of dots all over.
We are using Forms 6i (6.0.8.11.3) running on 9iAS on Windows 2000. The version of JInitiator we are using is 1.1.7.31. The forms open up in a separate frame.
The interesting thing is when we print from a Windows 2000 machine, the screen-prints are OK. But they are messed up when we use a windows 98/95 machine.
Any suggestions folks? Thanks

Any clues? I don't find anything in the Finder Help files to explain the Print command's use.
If in the Finder I pull down the "Help" menu and type "Print" in the "Search" box, I see one "Menu Items" entry and five "Help Topics". If I click on the one for "Printing a closed document", it shows information that discusses printing one document at a time. I don't know if it's possible to print more than one document that way.
Try this: Open the "Print & Fax" panel of System Preferences. Drag the printer's icon from the list on the left onto your Desktop. The result will be an icon that is an alias for the printer. Now try dragging several documents onto that icon.

Hi,
class VMD_EI_API_EXTRACT with method GET_DATA could make it.
There are also some eSOA services that could make it fine. See services starting with Supplier*.
Otherwise, this is more complicated.

Basic Security & form printing questions.

Hi, I am not an Oracle Forms developer yet, just gathering info, but I have 2 probably simple questions for you forms experts out there that maybe you can help me with.
Lets say that this new application will have 10 users and I create a main menu with 5 categories. Can forms allow me to give 4 users read/viewable rights to, lets say 3 categories,instead of all 5 categories? Bsically I just need to know if it offers some kind of security that I can create for each individual user.
The next question is if I create 10 forms that is supposed to 'retrieve' data, but I need to also have these 10 forms print out 'without' the data. Do I need to create 20 forms, or is 10 sufficient and oracle would allow me to print the forms out either with or without data.
Thank you in advance

There is menu-level security, meaning that only users that have certain roles may execute certain menu choices.
There's no special security at form level, apart from the database level security.
If a database user does not have insert, update & delete priviledges on a datablock in the form (but has the select priviledge), then, he won't be able to change the data in that block using the form, and if he'd try to, he'd get an error when trying to commit the changes.
Well, you may use set_block_property(your_block, update_allowed, property_true) or set_block_property(your_block, update_allowed, property_true) in the when new-form-instance trigger to make the form behave as you will when opened by a given database user.
