About General Report on Enterprise Portal

Hi Experts,
Now, I was asked Monthy Performance Report.
As for ECC , we have records.
But as for Enterprise Portal, we don't have.
Therefore I don't understand imagine what is general kind of Report item.
And I also don't know how to get it.
If you know it, could you tell me?
Thank you in advance.
BR,
Toshi

Automated report/ PDF conversion with AppleScript

Hello-
I am attempting to PDF a spreadsheet from Dropbox, and email it to a set list of recipients with AppleScript. Much of this I have been able to figure out, but I am having some issues with the PDF conversion. As you can see below, I am still working on sending the xls file, and have not yet been able to get AppleScript to convert a specific tab of the file to aPDF. I expect scheduling to be handled theough crontab.
Current script is as follows:
tell application "Finder"
          set folderPath to folder "Macintosh HD:Users:user:Dropbox:folder:Calculated PO Sheet"
          set theFile to first file in folderPath as alias
          set fileName to name of theFile
end tell
set theSubject to "Current PO Report" date
set theBody to "See attached."
set theAddress to "recipient email"
set theAttachment to "CALCULATED PO SHEET.xlsx"
set theSender to "sender email"
tell application "Mail"
          set theNewMessage to make new outgoing message with properties{subject:theSubject, content:theBody & return & return, visible:true}
          tell theNewMessage
                    set visibile to true
                    set sender to theSender
make new to recipient at end of to recipients with properties {address:theAddress}
                    try
make new attachment with properties {file name:theAttachment} at after the last word ofthe last paragraph
                              set message_attachment to 0
                    on error errmess -- oops
log errmess -- log the error
                              set message_attachment to 1
                    end try
                    log "message_attachment = " & message_attachment
#send
          end tell
end tell

PDF Conversion Truncated

Hello, I have an issue when performing the Spool to PDF conversion. I am using FM CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF to convert an ALV list to a PDF file. When I run my report in the foreground, everything works correctly, the PDF file is attached and then emailed to the appropriate recipient. When I schedule the job to run in the background, the contents of the attachment that is created is truncated on the right side cutting off half of the report (the font is also larger). I am out of ideas on how to solve this issue. Any help would be appreciated.

How I can save report (graphics & text) in PDF format in LV6i?

I am new to LabView. I tried to save the report as HTML document, it works well using vi's from report generation pallet. But the problem is HTML stores graphic images and text as multiple files. My requirement is to have one single file (like PDF format) to store the results/report of the process.
Any help in this problem will be greatly appreciated.

You could write a batch file that prints to a PS file using a PS
Printer driver and then runs GhostScript to automate the PS -> PDF
conversion. There is no need to buy a MS or Adobe product.
A big of searchign and you'll probably find some ghostscript addon for
HTLM->PS->PDF conversion

Crystal Reports 2008 export to PDF does not render Japanese fonts

Hello,
I have searched the forums for this issue, and there does not seem to be a clear resolution to this problem. We are using CR2008 to create RPT files that are bundled with our custom .NET 2005 application, which then generates reports in PDF format by running the RPT files against an access mdb database using the CR2008 runtime (our application is deployed on a different machine than the one that is used to create the RPT files). The issue we are having occurs when data in the access mdb file contains Strings with Japanese characters. The system that our application is running on does contain the eastern asian language fonts so if a user opens the mdb file using access, they can see the Unicode strings in the database rendered properly (rather than the usual boxes and garbage). However, once our application generates the report filling in the rpt file with data from the mdb and exporting the report to pdf format, the entries that should contain Japanese font data, which leads me to believe the problem is in the export pdf function of the crystal reports 2008 runtime. Is there anyway we can configure the runtime to properly embed the fonts in the PDF so that the users can view the Japanese content from the database. Our users end up viewing reports on both OSX and Windows using Adobe Acrobat Reader.
Thank you very much in advance

Thanks for the quick reply!
1) Exact version of Crystal Reports. (Open Crystal Developer. Go to Help> About Crystal Reports).
12.0.0.683

2) What happens if you export the report to PDF format from the standalone Crystal Reports Designer?
Same result. The entry shows up as giberish in the report designer preview...however, by doing this I stumbled upon something. See below
3) Are you able to export the report to other formats without any issue?
See Note below
NOTE:
In another part of the report, I just put the fields in question directly in the report (that is, not embedded in a text object). That part of the report when run produces the correct non-gibberish, properly rendered Japanese result (in the CR designer preview). The same field, however, when embedded in a text object, results in the gibberish being shown in the designer preview as well.
Now when I export this to PDF, that ends up turning both areas into the incorrect, gibberish result. Both the one that did properly render in the preview (field not embedded in text object) and the one in the text object.
Exporting to any other format (tried xls, rtf and html) results in correct rendering for the field not embedded in the text object and incorrect rendering for the field embedded in a text object.
Hope this helps with the problem, and I think it means this thread probably still belongs under this current forum.

Smart form: Spool to PDF Conversion more than 100 pages.

Hi folks,
I have an issue with Function Module (FM) CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF when the report to be converted has more than 100 pages.....i have explained this scenario as below
We have been using the FM CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF to convert ABAP report to PDF file and then send this via mail using FM SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1.....
PDF conversion using FM CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF works well if the number of report pages is less than 100....i.e the table pdf of the FM will contain the output as expected.....
If the report has more than 100 pages, the the FM CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF will schedule the conversion job as a background job and returns with a SY-subrc eq 0 and the table parameter pdf will ne empty.
Could you suggest me a woorkaround in this situtaion...i.e how do I then get the output of the background job
And any process to convert Spool to PDF if having more than 100 pages.
Thanks in Advance............

Pb,
If the report has more than 100 pages, the the FM CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF will schedule the conversion job as a background job and returns with a SY-subrc eq 0 and the table parameter pdf will ne empty
i would suggest you to if pages are more than 100 than you need to send report output to sp01 with spool request number by using fm job_open..job_close..
than from sp01 you can convert pdf by running RSTXPDFT4 in se38.
hope this would solve your problem.

PDF conversion with PDF2ID; Hypertext not working when exported back to pdf.

I have done a PDF conversion with PDF2ID, however Hypertext is not working when I exported it back to pdf. I am using the PDF2ID plug-in program to redo all the product booklets for our company as the hypertext did not work when downloaded to any smart phone. All that appeared were blank placeholders in each booklet index page.
According to the PDF2ID people the program plug-in recovers all URLs static and dynamic and bookmarks and local links and suggested I check with Adobe ID5 for help, but Adobe says my $1,000 ID5 is no longer supported and that I should go to the forums.....so here I am.
This is the first time I've even opened my ID5, so I'm a bit lost. Now I need to improve the quality of the PDFs, as we also need to convert all images to TIFF-CMYK in order to have the booklets printed & bound professionally. they tell me ID can do that.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Ugh...in some companies, that is training.
Don't take this the wrong way David, but of course ID can't do anything. PDF2ID conversions can be sketchy in the hands of the experienced. The same can be said of properly preparing matials for print. As Bob has already alluded, you're in an unfair position there. It's not uncommon for "management" types to just throw some sophisticated tools at a need and expect someone to make it work. In order to do what's being asked of you, you'll have to learn a fair bit about InDesign and production. It's too soon to ask about the output when you haven't learned to manage the input.

Smartform to PDF conversion having issue with Russian address

We are having a business situation we are the invoice in English language and the the address of ship-to party and sold-to party in Russian.
The issue we face is.
When the smartform is converted to PDF the Russian specific characters are missing in the PDF output. The same are perfect in the smart form print preview.
we are using   CONVERT_OTF function module and we are getting the Russian characters correctly in the table parameter OTF.
We are using "SX_TABLE_LINE_WIDTH_CHANGE" and " SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1"
function module to attach and mail the pdf.
In the PDF we are missing the Russian specific characters .
For Example in "Sedláčkova čč" the output is "Sedláčkova    " means "čč" is mising
Thanks in advance

Hi,
As described in note 999712 - PDF conversion for Unicode, there is a new unicode PDF converter PDFUC.
It depends on the SAP Version if you have to install the device type or not. You can check also via SPAD -> Full Administration -> Device Types -> Display.
You can pass the device type in the output options. I used:
SSFCTRLOP-no_dialog   = 'X'.
SSFCTRLOP-getotf      = 'X'.
SSFCTRLOP-langu       = 'EN'.
SSFCOMPOP-tdprinter = 'PDFUC'.
If you specify a device other than printer in the control options like SSFCTRLOP-device      = 'TELEFAX'., above will not work as
SSFCOMPOP-tdprinter is only evaluated for printer.
You have to check in SCOT -> Settings -> Device Types for Format Conversion.
You can make a general entry or for a specific language:
PDF                           SAPscript/Smart Forms    PDFUC
PDF    EN    English    SAPscript/Smart Forms    PDFUC
Let me know if you get this working.
Jeroen.

Word 2007 to PDF conversion

Hi,
when I save a MS Word 2K7 document to PDF, it opens in PDF with a yellow background. Has anyone else experienced this, or know what the problem/solution is?
thx.

> What is the difference between acrobat distiller and acrobat distiller server?
Licensing. If you want to run Distiller processing on a server, or
otherwise to produce files for more than one end user, the normal
Acrobat license does not work.
>And also need the trial version installation for distiller server.
I don't know if there is such a thing.
I notice this topic is about Word to PDF conversion. If you want Word
to PDF conversion on a server, Adobe's LiveCycle PDF Generator might
be more suitable.

FM for converting PDF to XSTRING - display R/3 report in Portal as PDF

Hello SDNers,
Requirement:
I am trying to display an R/3 report in Portal as PDF. I am trying to do it with the following logic:
1. Call a RFC enabled FM from my Webdynpro Java appln.
2. The FM then submits the Print request for the R/3 report and then gets the spool.
3. Convert the ABAP spool to PDF (using FM CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF).
4. Convert the PDF to XSTRING and send it back to the calling Webdynpro appln.
5. Using the XSTRING regenerate the PDF using some Webdynpro Java APIs.
The Problem / Question:
The output of the FM CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF is a table of type "TLINE" which includes TDFORMAT and TDLINE.
To get the XSTRING I am using the FM "'SCMS_STRING_TO_XSTRING". This FM only uses the "TDLINE" and completely ignores the "TDFORMAT". When I import this XSTRING value into my Webdynpro for Java appln., and assign to the corresponding UI element, my PDF does not show up.
My FM code is like this:
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF'
      EXPORTING
        src_spoolid                    = gd_spono
        no_dialog                      = 'X'
TABLES
   pdf                            = t_pdf
IF sy-subrc 0.
ENDIF.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
      LOOP AT t_pdf INTO w_pdf.
        CONCATENATE
          output
          w_pdf-tdformat
          w_pdf-tdline
        INTO output.
      ENDLOOP.
      CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_STRING_TO_XSTRING'
        EXPORTING
          text   = output
        IMPORTING
          buffer = outputx.
I doubt if "'SCMS_STRING_TO_XSTRING'" is the right FM to use in my scenario.
If we had a smartform, we could have used the FM "CONVERT_OTF" , but in our case we do not have a smart form and I am not able to figure out which FM should be used.
Please suggest if I am doing any thing wrong.
Thanks for Reading.

Raj Kumar

Hi
check this thread
spool to pdf conversion
It looks like you are missing translate in you processing of the table t_pdf. Something like the following line is missing:
TRANSLATE gd_buffer USING '~ '.
Loo at the standard program RSTXPDFT4 as well. It converts spool to PDF and then you can download it to your desktop.

Word to PDF Conversion = Different Color on Paper

Hello All,
I created a bunch of forms in Word 2010. Converted them into PDF and made them fillable. On screen Word doc and PDF doc colors look the same, but when I print PDF documents their blue turns intor dark purple. Any suggestions on how to keep colors consistent with the Word doc? I read about software and screen collibration, but I believe that there must be a simplier way to synchronize colors. Again, on screen colors looks the same.... Thank you very much.

Hi,
Thanks for the help.
Your first link use Office Web Apps to generate a PDF and launch printing action, it's not my use case.
I wan't generate a PDF near the word document in a document library.
Your second link is interesting, allow IntranetCall and permission on application service Word Automation but no change.
I have always :
"The file could not be converted due to an intermittent error in the system. Please resubmit this file for conversion. If the file fails again with this error message, contact your system administrator" error code 10.
Help me !!!!

Using Distiller for .dwg to PDF conversion

Hi all,
I am bit confused about using distiller for converting .dwg to PDF conversion. I need a server application which takes a .dwg file as an input and depending on the file attributes, converts it into a suitable PDF file (A4, A3, etc. depending on the .dwg file). Is using distiller a good idea or I should be looking into other tools?? Can Livecycle PDF generator handle such a thing??Kindly help me in this regard..

Distiller converts PostScript to PDF, nothing else. Distiller Server
is technically identical.
So to do this with Distiller you would
(a) need Distiller Server and
(b) need to make your own process to convert DWG to PostScript,
perhaps by automating AutoCAD.
LiveCycle PDF Generator, however, includes a package of conversion
tools for a list of specific file types. I don't know if DWG files are
in the list - there is a LiveCycle PDF Generator forum, so I recommend
trying there.
