Convert ABAP Spool to PDF and display in BSP
Hello SDNers,
I have a requirement to display an R/3 report in Portal as PDF. I have chosen the route of creating a BSP which will show the report as PDF.
I will then create a BSP iView in Portal pointing to this application.
I am following the weblog /people/sap.user72/blog/2004/11/10/bsphowto-generate-pdf-output-from-a-bsp
and few SDN forums:
Display result of standard report RPTEDT00 within BSP
Re: PDF Output
I am new to BSP development and I am not able to put all the pieces of code together.
I would really appreciate if you can help me put the pieces together and help me out with this.
More details:
This custom report displays the summary of Benefits Cost Accounting (by PERNR and current year).
Once the report is run, I would like to get hold of the spool and convert the spool to PDF.
In my BSP I would like to get the spool (or the binary of the PDF) and display the report as PDF in the BSP application.
I have created the BSP application using the code given in the above weblog.
I am not sure how to proceed further with the requirement.
Looking forward for your suggestions and help.
Thanks,
Kalyan
Hi kalyan,
go thru this wiki and you will have what you need all at one place. the piece you might want to look at is ABAP spool to PDF. It even contains complete code.

hope this helps.

Convert spool to PDF and send as email attachment
When i try to convert SAP spool to PDF and send it as email attachment, size of PDF document becomes large as compared to size of the PDF cocument i download using the same spool.
I am using following FMs.
CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF to convert spool to PDF
and
SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 to send email with attchment.
some times size of attchment exceeds 2MB and email results in error in SAP connect (SOST).
Any idea on how to compress the PDF attchment??

Convert spool to pdf and send in email sometimes attachment duplicated.
Hi all, I have a process that creates a spool, converts it to a pdf and then attaches it to an email. My problem is that sometimes, the same attachment is duplicated.
The process seems to work fine in debug mode (the attachment changes for each loop) but when I run it in the background, every few emails, it will duplicate an attachment.
I have noticed that the size of the pdf seems to change properly but that the content of the pdf does not match. So, it is like it gets the correct size of the pdf but not the body.
This is code that a consultant wrote and I am pretty new to abap/sap. I have changed some of the code because it was trying to handle an endless loop (I figured it should not have to handle (be in) an endless loop). I changed that code and it is working but this previous issue still exists. Thanks for your help.

Edited by: Katie Doody on Feb 24, 2010 12:30 AMThank you for your response, this has allowed me to identify the problem. It is when I create the spool by using the code below. If I add a wait after this, the program works successfully. Is there another way to write the data to create a spool within my initial program rather than doing the submit? Could it be that it is putting data in memory?

Convert spool to PDF and transfer to archive/content server
Hi,
I need to generate a spool (a simple ABAP list) to PDF and store this on my content server. I know I can use ARCHIVOBJECT_CREATE_TABLE to transfer the internal PDF-table to the server, and download it by using ARCHIVOBJECT_GET_CLIENT.
The problem is <b>how do I convert the spool to the internal table</b>? In ARCHIVOBJECT_CREATE_TABLE this table has to be of type DOCS.
All helpful answers will be rewarded!

Hi experts,
I'm looking for a possibility to conbvert a Spool-request to PDF fomrat.
Following situation:
I have a Web Dynpro that creates a page with a few material details. I can now export this to Excel, but now the requeiremt is also to convert it to PDF.
We don't have ADS, so I can't use Adobe forms. First, I tried to create a Smartform and convert this to PDF which will work. But I have also a few pictures included which come from a Web Service (as JPG). After searchin a while I found a possibilty to convert them to TIF and insert them in SE78 automatically. But this takes to much time and as a result of insert them to SE78, the colors will change (only 256 colors).
Next idea was to generate a HTML-Mail out of my Smartform (regaring this blog /people/pavan.bayyapu/blog/2005/08/30/sending-html-email-from-sap-crmerp) what works perfectly now.
So now I have a Spool in SOST which contains a HTML file. OK, looks great, all pictures are included, takes not much time - but how to convert this to PDF?
Anybody any ideas?Hi experts,
after searching the whole forum and internet, I don't find any solution.
Maybe the convertion from Spool to PDF is not possible...
OK, another idea:
I read that the wrong colors result from the different color depth (16/24 bit vs 256 colors). So my last idea is to convert the image before inserting into BDS (SE78), automatically done by SAP.
Is there any function/coding you know which can convert me a image from 24bit to 256 colors? If so, I can convert the image and then insert into BDS... -

Adobe Acrobat X - convert outlook email to pdf and include attachments as pdf
Is there a way to save an Outlook email as a PDF and include attachments as extra pages within the same PDF? I know I can convert an email to PDF and it will include the attachments as links. My end users feel that their clients won't understand the link feature, and/or the paper clip on the side pane. They'd rather convert an email and have it's attachments converted also, making the pdf an email message + converted attachments....all in one process. The only way currently is to open each attachment and convert them individially, then combine the email pdf and attachment pdf together. Too many steps involveed there.
make sense?
Thanks,
Jon WootenSame question here, but for Lotus Notes!! Seems ridiculously simple.

Convert external documents to PDF and print
Hi,
I have a SAP script and with some help from SDN I am at point where I can convert this SAP script to PDF using the function module below
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_OTF'

FORMAT = 'PDF'
* MAX_LINEWIDTH = 132
* ARCHIVE_INDEX = ' '

IMPORTING
BIN_FILESIZE = BINFILESIZE
* BIN_FILE =
TABLES
otf = DATAB[]
lines = PDFTAB[].
Now my requirement is, let's say I have an external doc(word or excel) residing on my PC. I have complete path of this file in my hand. I want to convert this file to PDF and append it to the above PDFTAB[] and print to the printer 'TDDEST' as a single document.
Thanks,Hi,

Converting from Word to PDF and printer settings
I have a program that writes letters automatically in Word and if we have a PDF file as an enclosure when the letter prints, it actually converts the word document as a whole to a PDF. This part works great, however, when the letter begins with Word we have the Page setup for the printer to print the first page on letterhead (tray 1) and all pages after to plain paper (tray 2). When the word document converts to pdf, it is printing everything from tray 1 which is letterhead.
Is there any way to convert a document to pdf and keep the page settings as well?
Thanks for any input!Don't have an answer. However, you might consider creating the WORD document so that the letterhead is built in and you do not need the paper.

Photoshop: How to save as a pdf and display description?
The only other Photoshop I ever used was CS3, and when I clicked "print" it saved as a pdf first, and I could choose to make it display different metadata. That feature has been removed for all newer versions for some reason, and I have no idea how to do what I want to do.
I need to save it as a pdf, and display the description/subject metadata under the photo. I can't find anything online on how to do this.BlazeHeatnix,
Due to the current unavailability of clairvoyants and mind-readers in the forum, we respectfully request you supply sensible, complete details.
Please understand that "CS5" does not clear up the issue of what version of Photoshop you are using. "Photoshop CS5 12.0.1" would.
A screen capture would be very helpful.
Also, have you trued the Print command, then Save As PDF?
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
Note that this is boilerplate text.
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too.
Please read this FAQ for advice on how to ask your questions correctly for quicker and better answers:

Web Reporting - Converting HTML to PDF and displaying
Does any know of a method to convert the html data stream to a PDF format so it may be returned to the browser for printing?
i created an Help Service which can convert the current Web Application State to Pdf and it displays it automatical in the browser window. Charts and all the other stuff is also converted.
This is only on-top of a complex PDF Framework which offers features you request for example.
Batch support. Load balancing. Stylesheet support. Report Books. There are Convenience Classes in ABAP which support Template ID in PDF-Bytestream out. Sent PDF as mail. publish to Portal. Information Broadcasting integration etc.
the advatnage of this solution is that the conversion is performed on the Server and not on the client which means you need only one license, and not for each client...
i hope this helps.
best regards.
