Adobe Forms dynamic number of pages in Webdynpro

Question

Hi Experts,
My requirement is to display a paragraph in PDF format. The paragraph varies for each employee. The text are stored in a table as GUID.
I am converting the GUID text using read_text function module. The output is of TYPE TABLE OF tline.
Below is the code that I am using the display output in pdf.
CALL FUNCTION lv_fmname
      EXPORTING
        /1bcdwb/docparams  = ls_fp_doc
        zcit                              = *lv_citation*
        zsignam                      = lv_signam
        pernr                           = lv_pernr
        ename                         = lv_ename
        desig                           = lv_desig
        zdate                          = lv_date
        zyears                        = lv_years
      IMPORTING
        /1bcdwb/formoutput = ls_formout
      EXCEPTIONS
        usage_error        = 1
        system_error       = 2
        internal_error     = 3
        OTHERS             = 4.
In the above code I have converted the tline format to string and passing that as lv_citation. So in the PDF I am getting a single paragraph as output. I want to get the output with the formatting also.
I tried to pass that tline format to the above function module and its giving some error.
Is this possible to get the output with the formatting available in lt_tline?

Dear Vidhya,
that sounds very crazy.
If i use tline_tab for the param and in the fm, the whole construction works without any problem.
Can you explain more about the implementation in the layout (or is there an error while calling the fm with the "wrong" type??)
Also have a look at this thread: [click me|filling a textedit ui through an internal table;
Declare a itab of type string_table.(say lt_string)
Loop at itab(the actual data) into wrkarea.
concatenate all fileds of wrkarea into a string variable.(say lv_string)
APPEND lv_string TO lt_string.
ENDLOOP.
Bind lt_string to a context attribute of type string_table.
Bind the attribute to the "value" of textedit.I remember doing somthing like this
and it  seemed to work.
To show multiline text you'll need to be using a text edit UI element
(with read only flag checked) not a text view UI element.
