                     and I am passing this table in my form layout
                     now the problem is in that paragraph there are some highlighted lines . for this lines adobe form is not printing them in bold but

                              kjgsdjfgsjdgfjsgdjf
                          <H>1.2.1. IJKL </>
                              asdjasgdjagsdjgjasd

Change font in Adobe Form in the interface

Hi all,
I have one issue changing the font in adobe forms.
In the interface I have as import one string. With this string I have to generate the PDF and I need to change the font.
Here is an example:
Import string: "this is an [[FONT=CURIEL]]example of [[N]] adobe [[SIZE=15]] forms"
the characters [[ ]] indicate an scape sequence.
[[FONT=CURIEL]] means that all the following text should be in curiel font.
[[N]] means new line
[[SIZE=15]] menas that all the following text should be in size 15.
All this text I has to be added to a string variable and paste in the PDF.
I know that I can add a new line with "cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline"
I know that with Javascrit I can change the font and the size, but for that I have to change all the text.
Is there any way to change some text inside the variable and not all of it?
Thanks!
Regards,
Andres

Hi UmaS,
Thanks for your answer.
I can't use floating text because I don't know how many different fonts I will have and I can't create floating text dynamically.
Any other idea?
Thanks,

How to use MICR fonts in Adobe forms (webdynpro java

Hi,
We have a requirement where we need to print some MICR codes (for checks) through Adobe Forms.
I have installed some true type MICR fonts in windows and Adobe Font Manager (in ADS) as well.
It is visible in the Adobe Form design time (Font palette) and when I use the font for text, it is visible in preview too. But when I run the web dynpro application, in the online form it is converted into Standard font (Times new Roman).
Is there anyway to handle this issue.
Please let me know.
I am using NWDS 7.0.1
Adobe Live cycle designer 7.1
SAP NW 2004s SP14
Thank you,

Problem with Helve font in Adobe forms

Hi Gurus,
I am working on an Adobe form.It contains Helve Font size 10 and 14. But I am not able to find Helve Font in the font pallette while creating that form in live cycle designer or in SAP. Is there any option to add fonts? How can I make Helve font availanle? Or is there any other alternative?
Awaiting your valuable answers.
Thanks,
Raje.

Hi Raj,
As Harman says, font must be installed on your computer at design time.
And if you want to use the font at runtime, the font must be available to the ADS.
Just take a look at:

MICR font in Adobe Form

Hi All,
I am working on Adobe Form for A/P Check(Cheque) through F110 transaction. In Adobe Live cycle Designer(and in ADS), I don't see MICR font option in the list of available fonts. I know it's there in smartforms and Scripts. But how can I get the font in Adobe?
I already searched in the forum but didn't get any solution. I appreciate any help in resolving this issue.
Thanks!

I found these 2 threads (ADS Font Installation and Fonts problem) which say that you might add your font in designer.xdc or design.xdc file in \usr\sap\<systemid>\SYS\global\AdobeDocumentServices\lib\, and for windows, you may install in /winnt/fonts
There is also some [documentation for XDC fonts in Adobe support website|http://livedocs.adobe.com/livecycle/8.2/wb_help/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm?href=001172.html]

Adobe Form - Print choice of bold or not bold font

We have an Adobe form that prints sales order line items that are followed by their scheduling data (if any). So, each order line item could be followed with one or more scheduling line items or none. Example:
(Order line)        10      9055450            7,000       EA          <other data>
(Schedule lines                Expected Ship Date:         5,000     EA   05/30/2011
    for the order line)         Expected Ship Date:         2,000     EA   07/16/2011
This is working fine using a subform but now we want to print the scheduling line items either as bold or not bold depending on some logic. So, we want this:
(Order line)        10      9055450            7,000       EA          <other data>
(Schedule lines                Expected Ship Date:         5,000     EA   05/30/2011
    for the order line)         Expected Ship Date:       2,000     EA   07/16/2011
We have an indicator set for each scheduling line item that indicates if the schedule line is to be printed as bold or not bold (schedules-bold_line = u2018Xu2019).
Is there any way to override the font settings in the Layout using Script Editor?
Weu2019ve tried using Script Editor (at a upper level subform) to set the presence (hidden/visible) of two different subforms (one to print as bold and one not bold) but that printed both subforms.
Weu2019ve tried using Alternative nodes (true/false) that check the bold line indicator. This works but it prints the wrong data because there are direct binding references to multiple levels of repeating data. That is, instead of printing the schedule lines for order line item 10, it prints the schedule line items for order line item 20.
(Order line)        10      9055450            7,000       EA          <other data>
(Schedule line                Expected Ship Date:         1,000     EA   06/01/2011
    for the next order line)
How would I use relative binding in Alternative nodes?
Is there a better method to accomplish this task?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Radhika - Thank you so much for your answer! You helped me find the solution. I ended up using FormCalc and this is the code that worked in the Ready Layout event of the EXPECTEDSHIPDATE subform :
data.BODY_PAGE.TABLE.ITEM_VALUES.ZLINE.TEXTSUBFORM.EXPECTEDSHIPDATE::ready:layout - (FormCalc, both)
if ( $.BOLD_LINE_IND[*] == "X" ) then
$.ShipQty[*].font.weight = "bold"
$.ShipQty[*].caption.font.weight = "bold"
$.DelvDate[*].font.weight = "bold"
$.UOM[*].font.weight = "bold"
$.PlantName[*].font.weight = "bold"
$.PlantName[*].caption.font.weight = "bold"
else
$.ShipQty[*].font.weight = "normal"
$.ShipQty[*].caption.font.weight = "normal"
$.DelvDate[*].font.weight = "normal"
$.UOM[*].font.weight = "normal"
$.PlantName[*].font.weight = "normal"
$.PlantName[*].caption.font.weight = "normal"
endif
The EXPECTEDSHIPDATE subform is bound to the Schedules table that contains ShipQty, etc. The BOLD_LINE_IND field contains the value that toggles the print between bold and normal.
The key to making this work was to correctly format the condition and code and to find the right event to place the code in.
Thanks again for your help!

Adobe form title won't print in BOLD font

Hi Gurus,
When creating an adobe form, I used the standard PM form interface and created my own form design. I have a problem with the form title which should appear in the header of my page as it currently does. The problem is that I can't change the font size or format (I can change it but the format isn't reflected in the output). It is a bound read only text field using the field TITLE_PAGE-TITLE imported by the standard interface.
Is it not possible to format bound fields? I have some text fields which are static and the bold formatting works fine.
Regards,
Simon

I see no one has answered, it may have been a stupid question. I've realised that it is obviously possible and very simple but I've had problems with activation. For some reason every time I activate and test the form with real data it reverts to a former version, this is why my text wasn't appearing in bold. The only way I have been able to get around this problem is by downloading the form, deleting it in SAP and then uploading it again, a bit of a pain but it works.
If anyone has any ideas on what the prob could be I would appreciate any answers,.
Regards,
Simon

Fonts installation SAP Adobe forms

We need to install following fonts in the SAP Adobe Forms landscape.
Question is are the following fonts available with Adobe :
Helvetica Neue Light (Standard/Bold/Italic)
Superior Title Black (Standard/Bold/Italic)
Universe 45 Light (Standard/Bold/Italic)
The fonts need to be in .TTF format
Where can I find the steps to install the fonts into SAP.

I don't really understand what you mean by "available with Adobe". First let's clarify the product: I'm guessing Adobe Reader, but perhaps Adobe Acrobat. (Adobe are the company, they have dozens of modules). However, it isn't clear in what way any Adobe product integrates with SAP, as opposed to displaying content generated by SAP.
If by "available" you mean "included", NO. There are hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, of fonts. Only fonts needed for correct operation are included. But
1. PDF files can "embed" fonts. This is strongly recommended because then the font is not needed by the end user. Perhaps you are asking about embedding rather than displaying?
2. Fonts are not installed "into" Adobe software; no idea about installing fonts into SAP. That's not our department. Adobe software and perhaps SAP just pick up the fonts installed in the system in the usual way.
Many companies make fonts, and many companies sell the same fonts. You need to verify the license on the font (fonts have licenses like software) allow your intended use. If you want to distribute fonts to your end users you will need a special license indeed. You can start with Adobe's font shop: Buy, download fonts | Adobe Type

Adobe Form - missing font

Hi all,
I need help for output Adobe.
I have create a Adobe Form in LCD (SFP). I change the font from Arial to NexusSans. In the LCD Layout the text will shown correctly in the font Nexus.
The printing is controlled over an application form in SAP.
if I print the Adobe form from transaction piqst10 -> corresponding with device is file. The result PDF in the spool is created, but the font in the PDF is ARIAL and NOT NEXUS.
What can I do, to get the right font in my PDF?
We use SLCM, LCD 8.0; Clients: Win XP and SAP-GUI 7.2. The font Nexus... is installed on my Client - it is a licensed font.
Additional Information: We have old SmartForms which use Nexus too. If I print the SmartForm I get the right Nexus font.
Many thanks for your help
DSE
I've got an message: "Schriftlizenz für NexusSans-Regular erlaubt kein Einbetten. Schrift wird als Referenz verwendet"
"Font license for NexusSans-Regular does not allow embedding. Font is used as a reference."

Maybe that could help
       1.      Create a subdirectory called fonts below the /usr/sap/<SAPSID>/SYS/global/AdobeDocumentServices/FontManagerService directory.
       2.      Create a subdirectory called customer below the fonts/ directory created in the previous step.
       3.      Copy your fonts into the /usr/sap/<SAPSID>/SYS/global/AdobeDocumentServices/FontManagerService/fonts/customer directory.
       4.      Restart the Document Services Font Manager for the changes to take effect. (See How to Restart a Service.)
       5.      Also restart the application com.adobe/AdobeDocumentServices for the changes to take effect. (See How to Restart an Application.)

Adobe Form's First Page printing perfectly on 132 column sheet but further pages prints with small font size

Dear All,
We are facing a strange behavior of adobe form.
we made form for SAP CRM which is printing in 132 column(28cm * 33cm) sheet. what we are observing is, first page is printing perfectly on the pre printed Invoice sheet but if invoice has more items to be displayed then second page prints with small font size or you can say second page seems to be zoomed out to smaller page size. In Preview Second page onwards also looks perfect. Now we are in a fix what to do to come out of this issue.
efforts made:-
Adobe Page Size Adjusted.
Select paper Source by Page Size ticked in Adobe form properties
But still result is non satisfactory. Please Help.
Regards,
Ashkar Rizvi

See my answers below:
a) The size of the pages of PDF which you are printing. LETTER
b) Does all pages of the PDF are of same size? YES
c) What is the page size set in the Printer and what is the actual size of the paper which you have put in the tray? LETTER
d) Does this problem also happens on the virtual printer which you might have on your system (Try either Microsoft MPS Document writer or Adobe PDF Printer) No VIRTUAL PRINTERS
Thank you for attempting to help me with this... we have tried everything and haven't been able to resolve the problem.
