Change font in an Abap report

We'd like to change the fonts in an abap report that must print on screen, we tried to use the PRINT-CONTROL FUNCTION but seems good only to print on the printer

I agree with Naveen , However there is a small trick here if you can show the data in your report witht he entire line painted in Yellow , then it appears to be bold when you take the printout. Well , i have learned this in version 4.0B and whenever there was summary report or subtotals i used to paint that strip with colour yellow when you take printout it appears bold.
Thanks ,
Vievk.

Font size in abap reports

hi all,
is it possible to increase font size in abap reports.
i am trying to print a Zreport which is having line size of 325 . so i decided to print on A3 landscape . it seems to be printing very small size ,cannot be readable! . in this case i have to increase the font size of the output.
is their possibilities to do.
reply asap,
regards
vijay

Hi Vijay,
You can increase the font size during printing dynamically. In the Device Types -> formats, which ever format you are using, you can ask your Basis person to edit the format and increase the font size. Also the page setup like portrait, landscape, CPI, etc can be done there itself.
See the below link it will help...

How do you change fonts in an HTML report?

Hello all,
I need to create a report from a test that I've written, and my only feasible option is HTML. Unfortunately, I know next to nothing about HTML, so I'm using the LabView VI's to build the report.
In the attached VI, I've written a program that simply plops a couple lines of text down and saves it in the HTML format. The color, font style, font type all seem to work fine, and when I change them I see the changes reflected in the HTML document. The size, however, doesn't change.
What I need to do is have the ability to have different lines of text be different sizes, or even 1 word in a sentence be a different size.
How do I do this?
What am I doing wrong?
Any help would be greatly app
reciated!

Dear Dave,
The setting of the size is working but your parameters are inadequate for a HTML document.
The reporting VIs are generating HTML which is decrepated. It generates a FONT tag with a size attribute with "30pt" and "10pt" as you have set in the Set Report Font parameters. The HTML standard allows only values of "1" to "7". The standard works with relative sizes so a "pt" does not apply to it. "1" is the smallest size and the actual displayed size depends on the setting of the browser. In MS IE you can set it under View>>Size to one of five degrees.
If you would use "5" and "7" instead of "10pt" and "30pt" you will see the text in different size.
Your values are coerced to 7. That's why you see something you didn't expected.
Unfortunatly
I have no experience with the reporting VIs. I'm not sure if they can use the style sheet formatting which will allow font sizes measured in points.

Hi,
you can do this in your style sheet.
Look for class .apexir_worksheet_data and change the font-size.

Change font size in Z-Report created from template

A Z-report is being created from template which uses WWI.INI file integration to generate the report in Microsoft Word. In that report the text from phrases is passing over the specified text box. So all the phrases are not displayed.
Now user either want the size of font to decrease or change the size of the box.
We are going ahead with changing the font size. To do so we are editing the template in CG42. Is this approach is correct or we can change the font size from somewhere else??. If yes ,then how to proceed ??
Your help will be greatly appreciated as I am new to EHS and have very limited knowledge.

Hello Aasim,
Just try it out
If you are afraid to destroy something on the WWI template create a copy of the template and do your testing there....
Read the SAP help on WWI.
Can I edit font in the Microsoft Word file which is generated after I click "Document (F7)" button??
Yes you can.
If yes , then suppose I change the font size in a text box there.Does the font of phrase's text also changes accordingly when the report is generated.
Yes.
And does that change is for all the phrases in that text box ( since no. of phrases varies according to the specification)???
Yes it will change the font size for all phrases in that text box.
There is an option in WWI where you can change the text size dynamically if the text is in a real text box.
However I'm currently not sure if this works for all kind of WWI templates or only for labels.
Hope this helps

Changing font color in a report using SQL query for APEX 5.0

Hello,
I am testing APEX 5.0 in my testing environment to see if I can migrate my internal apps from 4.2 to 5.0.
How can I change the font color in a field based in the SQL query? I know how to do it in 4.2 but I can't find the same in 5.0.
Thanks,

Well, I used to put the html tags in the select as text getting the color value depending a CASE , then I had to change the Display attribute for the column in the report as "Display as text (espace special characters...)".
I found an old post here: https://tylermuth.wordpress.com/2007/12/01/conditional-column-formatting-in-apex/ and this method still worked for me in APEX 5.0
Thanks anyways

Changes made in the web report selection scree do not appear on webpage.

Hi
I want to add 2 checkboxes on a web page of a report. I have done the changes in R/3 ABAP report (Added checkboxes on selection screen) and also released the report for internet using SMW0 transaction. But these two checkboxes are not appearing on the web page in internet explorer.
Whenever I try to access the URL
http://www.abc.com/scripts/wgate?~service=webrfc&_FUNCTION=WWW_GET_SELSCREEN&_REPORT=ZWR_PO_DELIVERY&_TEMPLATE=po_selscreen
it redirects it to the URL below
http://www.abc.com/scripts/po.asp?SESSION=PRD:ebgwebap:0000.00f5.7e1af317.e4db&SELD_EINDT_LOW=26.04.2008&SELD_BEDAT_LOW=01.04.2007&SELD_BEDAT_HIGH=26.02.2008
What should I do so that these two checkboxes would start appearing on the webpage?
Edited by: Pratiksha Parab on Feb 26, 2008 11:28 AM

thats difficult to say without seeing the code in the template.
when you dont supply any _tempate value in the url, the system by default uses
WEBREPORTING_SELSCREEN template.
your po_selscreen may be a copy of this and modified to change the look and feel or something like that. compare these two and see whats causing the selscreen from appearing completely

Hi Ranjan,
You don't have a whole lot of print options with Reports.. you can get what you need to some extent using the
PRINT-CONTROL option on the REPORT statement. Please check theSAP Help for additional info.
Check this program also...
REPORT ZFONT NO STANDARD PAGE HEADING LINE-SIZE 80 LINE-COUNT 65.
Start of print-control
NEW-PAGE PRINT ON.
PRINT-CONTROL FUNCTION 'SF000'.
WRITE: / 'This is CPI 20'.
SKIP.
PRINT-CONTROL FUNCTION 'SF020'.
WRITE: / 'This is CPI 6'.
SKIP.
PRINT-CONTROL FUNCTION 'SF008'.
WRITE: / 'This is CPI 12'.
Depending on your SAP printer device, this may also work
PRINT-CONTROL FONT 1 LPI 6.
you can try to change font and LPI numbers
WRITE: / 'font 1 lpi 6'.
PRINT-CONTROL FONT 2 LPI 6.
WRITE: / 'font 2 lpi 6'.
PRINT-CONTROL FONT 3 LPI 6.
WRITE: / 'font 3 lpi 6'.
End of print-control
NEW-PAGE PRINT OFF.
End of Program

Change font color in reports depending on condition

I have an application that generates a number of new records at
the click of a button, which the user can then modify through
several report-form links. My users have requested that the data
appear in one color in the reports if they have not yet updated
the records, and that they change color, permanently, when
updated. I'm not sure how to accomplish this. I do well with
PLSQL, but I think this is probably a Javascript issue(?) - or
is it possible to specify font color of a report when you call a
URL?
Any ideas anyone?

Thank you, both Michaels. I was excited. I was sure this would
work, so I added the updated_by fields to all my reports (they
should be useful anyway). I worked on a couple of other issues
related to this, and returnred this morning to add the HTML font
tags to my report queries. I CAN'T MAKE IT WORK! I've attached
my code, and error message. Any thoughts on what I'm doing
wrong? Thanks.
(Note: The query works fine without the HTML tags.)
My code:
select ''||activity.act_text||'' act_text,
from Activity, survey, temp
where activity.survey_id = survey.survey_id and
survey.survey_id = temp.survey
Error message:
Unable to describe SQL statement. Please correct it (WWV-13010)
Invalid SQL statement: SELECT ''||ACTIVITY.ACT_TEXT||'' ACT_TEXT, FROM
ACTIVITY, SURVEY, TEMP WHERE ACTIVITY.SURVEY_ID =
SURVEY.SURVEY_ID AND SURVEY.SURVEY_ID = TEMP.SURVEY (WWV-13005)
ORA-01001: invalid cursor (WWV-11230)

I appreciate your help. I'm tearing my hair out.
