Can we change font size and font type in reports

Hi All Technical/Functional Masters,
We are developing some transactional reports in ISU. this report has 20 columns to be printed. On screen, display is not a problem but client has a requirement to download this report in PDF format and wants to print on A4-paper in Landscape. Although we have managed to accommodate all the columns on A4 paper but have to compromise with font size that are very small and not visible. If we download the report in excel format we are able to maintain the font size 8 and accommodate all columns after little format but same in PDF is a problem.
Can anyone tell whether we can increase the font size and change font type(from SAP standard to 'Arial') before sending the output in PDF ? Is there any property or utility that can be changed or used for this purpose.

  • In SAP 4.6c In classical reports output how to change Font size and Font type

    Dear Experts,
    In SAP 4.6c, in classical and interactive reports  output how to change font size and font type.
    Regards,
    Zaker.

    These are HTML formatting questions. Nothing to do with the Oracle SQL and PL/SQL languages.
    With old-style HTML, the font size and family are set using the font tag.
    With modern style HTML, that is done using cascading style sheets (CSS).
    Your favourite search engine will turn up tons of information on both.

  • Ability to change font size and font color thru console

    I have a console that a client can pretty much do all the
    changes they
    want.. now they want to be able to change the font sizes for
    certain titles
    and also the color..
    Since 95% of the site is controlled with CSS is there
    something i can add
    to the console page to allow them to change the size and
    color of the titles
    and text?
    ASP, SQL2005, DW8 VBScript

    Here's what I have done in the past. Maybe not elegant, but
    it works. (I
    use PHP, but I'm sure you can modify for ASP.)
    In the HEAD of each web page, include regular old embedded
    STYLE tags,
    but INCLUDE an external PHP file:
    <head>
    <style type="text/css">
    <?php include('styles/testcss.php'); ?>
    </style>
    </head>
    Now in that included PHP file, just have CSS code which pulls
    in your
    dynamic data. Here's an example snippet:
    body {
    color: #600;
    background-color: <?php echo
    $row_recordset['bgcolor'];?>
    Of course, you'll need the code for the recordset somewhere
    too.

  • How to change the size and font of my text in SMARTFORMS

    Hello gurus,
    I have a smartform as image below:
    I want to know how can I change the font size, and if is there a way to auto adjust text within its container or window?
    Thanls

    To maintain « Styles » in your Smart form, read first : Smart Forms >   Maintenance of Styles with the Style Builder.
    Transaction SMARTSTYLES
    if not already created, create a new style (e.g. copy the style assigned to your form)
    create a new paragraph format
    select alignment "BLOCK Justified"
    Then in transaction SMARTFORMS attach your style and use your new paragraph format.

  • Can I change different background and font color on each records?

    Hi,
    I had a Data_Block which contains some records, I had a field name 'currency' which contains value such as (HKD, JPY, CNY, CND, USD etc..)
    Let there there are 5 Records contain in that Data_Block and I wanted to change the background and font color depend on the Currency value.
    I were using Set_Item_Property and change the Visual_Attributes that I had define. Well I guess that doesn't work since uisng the Set_Item_Property
    it will actually getting the last value and use that last value and changed to all the same color to that.
    I wonder is there a way to do that in Oracle you can change the field different color?
    Thanks
    David Willis

    Thanks You so much.
    Actually I were trying to look for that function at the User Manual but I couldn't find it because I remembered I had seem it some where.
    I guess I am looking at the Form4.5 user manual instead of the Oracle 9i Forms Developer.
    Thanks

  • Can I increase menu sizes and fonts without lowering my resolution?

    This is my first desktop Mac ever and its a huge shock to have the menus and fonts so small. I thought my having a large 27" display that its going to be easy to see everything. 
    At the same time I do not want to lower my resolution as i feel it defeats the purpose and I am also a photographer that needs to have the best resolution.  I am okay with hitting comm+ to make applications bigger but the menu bars and applications I use tend to be much smaller than Im used to. Even a word doc on Pages opens up extremely small to where nobody can read it. I am 32 with perfect vision and its making hard to read.
    Im just wondering and hoping that there is something I can adjust and since Im new to Mac dont realize yet.  If not, than thats pretty disappointing and will start to wonder if i should have bought something else
    I am open to downloading 3rd party stuff if it makes it do what I want it to.
    Thank you!

    Thanks for your suggestions Paul_31 and Strawb268 which, I agree does make a difference to the menu text size but at reduction of screen definition and clarity which is, after all, one of the main reasons I bought the iMac in the first place.
    I've read elsewhere since making the initial post that the Apple engineers don't like a larger font.  Maybe when they get a bit older they will wish they had made that option available!
    I really hope that an option for changing the fonts in menus is included in a future upgrade of Mavericks.  I really don't want to have to go back to a Windows PC to resolve such a simple issue.

  • How to change font size and style in Oracle Report Builder 6i?

    Same situation for report parameter input value font. What ever we do , it is still Arial and size 10.

  • Change the size and style of the menu

    How can I change the size and font on the automatically created menu in iWeb?
    I cannot select it like other text on the site..

    The words under pictures on the photo pages are also part of the template. What you see is the default.
    But you can change this. You can change the font, font size and font color. Just hightlight it by dragging the cursor over it and select font to change the font and size. And you can use the color wheel to change the color
    Good luck!
    Edit: if you choose a large font you may have to adjust the space between the pictures. This can be done in the inspector. Just play with it to see what works.

  • Font size and type not changing in subtitles

    I have tried to change the size and font of my subtitles in my DVD SP Preferences (DVD SP 3). They change in the settings window but the size and font of the subtitles in the film remains the same which is huge
    I have clicked apply in the prefrences menu but nothing changes in the film.
    Am I missing something?

    Are the subtitles already in place in the stream for the film? Sounds like they are. If so select one of the subtitles and change it's formatting then Apply to stream. That should work. If you change the preferences that will only apply to newly created subtitles (I'm assuming you don't have the subs as an external file and have created them in DVD-SP?)
