Adobe Forms without spool

Question

Is it possible generate pdf into xstring without spool? The task is mass generating pdf files, about 100 per day. Any idea?

Answer 1

Ok, here is the one variant, but i think it also create any jobs, work for me faster then standart algoritm pdf output:
1. We need two files XFD with the outputdata and XDP of our PDF Form.
2. XFD we can generate by transformation.
3. And the code:
DATA: l_fp             TYPE REF TO if_fp,
      l_pdfobj         TYPE REF TO if_fp_pdf_object,
      l_xft            TYPE xstring,
      l_xfd            TYPE xstring,
      pdfresult        TYPE xstring,
      l_dest TYPE rfcdest.
MOVE cl_fp=>get_ads_connection( ) TO p_dest.
* get FP reference
  l_fp = cl_fp=>get_reference( ).
  TRY.
*   create PDF Object
      l_pdfobj = l_fp->create_pdf_object( connection = p_dest ).
*   set template
      l_locale = p_loc.
      l_pdfobj->set_template( xftdata = l_xft locale = l_locale ).
*   set data
      l_pdfobj->set_data( formdata = l_xfd ).
*   tell PDF object to create PDF
      l_pdfobj->set_task_renderpdf( ).
*   execute, call ADS
      l_pdfobj->execute( ).
*   get result
      l_pdfobj->get_pdf( IMPORTING pdfdata = pdfresult ).
ENDTRY.
