Convert Web Report to PDF

Hi all,
I need a possibility to <b>convert Web Reports</b> designed in WAD <b>into PDF</b>. SAP help portal says: 'You access BEx Web applications and reports in the portal. You can then convert these into PDF files and print them.' (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/03/d8c041a227ca17e10000000a155106/frameset.htm)
But I haven't found any documentation how to do this...could anyone please help me? Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Dominik

Hi Dominik,
You will need to add a URL or button group to your template and use the command wizard to create the command ("Export Web Template"). You should be able to find more information in the SAP Help documentation for SAP NetWeaver 2004s, which I know you already have a link to.
If you are on a ramp-up project, you should have access also to the Ramp-up Knowledge Transfer (RKT) in the SAP Service Marketplace at service.sap.com/rkt-netweaver. This site contains materials that explain the new features, including the new web items and the command wizard. If you don't have access, check with your SAP consultant for assistance.

  • Internet Explorer 9 Convert Web Page to PDF error

    Hi I have a user that is having a problem using the Convert button to convert web pages to PDF's in IE 9. In some instances they get an error that says "Acrobat had an error converting to PDF". Printing to the PDF printer seems to work flawlessly but it isnt optimal when there are hundreds of pages that need to be converted. Anyone else seen an error like this? I have repaired the Acrobat X install (10.1.0) but still get the error. It does not happen to all sites and usually, attempting to convert a second (and even third) time succeeds.

    Looks like this might be an intermittent bug, since Acrobat 10.1 added support for IE 9. Can you report the bug here:
    https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
    Also, do you have the same issue in Acrobat directly when choosing File > Create PDF > From Web Page?

  • Convert Web Page to PDF

    We have an internal web based system in which we would like to 'print' one of the screens as a report.  However, when we use the Convert Web Page to PDF option, the resulting PDF doesn't look anything close to the web page.  We are wanting to use the Convert Web Page option so the links to the images remain and can be clicked on and viewed from our internal servers.
    Resulting PDF
    Original Web Page we are attempting to convert:
    As you can see, the two do not resemble each other very much.  The image thumbnails on the PDF screen are located at the bottom of the web page we are converting.
    We are receiving the same results on two different computers running two different OS (Windows XP and Windows 7) with two different versions of Acrobat (Acrobat 6 Professional and Acrobat 8 Professional).
    Does anyone have any suggestions?  The Convert Web Page option also doesn't work well on eBay Order screen either.  I stopped using it years ago but a coworker would really like to be able to share our QC Inspection Reports with other people in the company easily.
    Any help and suggestions would be apprecitated.

    Bill,
    Thanks again for the reply.  I am using the Convert Web Page to PDF selection on the Adobe toolbar which is available in IE.  I printed the page from File >> Print and it looks good except no links.  It is also printed in a Portrait style page layout.
    Sample:
    When I used the Convert Web Page to PDF from the Adobe toolbar, it looks like it is attempting to 'print' it in a landscape mode and that may be where the problem is.
    Sample:
    These are the same report.  However, I can't find a preference to tell it to convert in a Portrait mode instead of landscape.  Any clues on how to force it to always convert Portrait?
    Thanks again,

    we are looking the direct method of how to trigger “Convert to Adobe PDF” event automatically through JavaScript on the browser (IE 6.0).
    Any suggestions and helps are greatly appreciated, thanks!

  • Save webi report as pdf programmatically

    Does anyone has any SDK code sample or can point me to the location of code sample on how to save a webi report as PDF file programmatically? Also, is the ReportEngineSDK is sufficient for this task or I need some other SDK?
    We are running XIr2 SP1 on Windows Server 2003, with Tomcat as web container.
    Any help will be very much appreciated.

    Hi,
    I think Using ReportEngine SDK you would not be able to save the webi report in PDF format.However it could be possible if you schedule a webi report to PDF format to unmanaged disk.
    You can refer the following tutorials given in developer library's BusinessObjects Enterprise SDKs. You can either use .NET or Java SDKs.
    How to schedule a report to a destination (FTP, SMTP, Disk, Printer, Inbox)
    How to schedule and view Web Intelligence documents
    Here is the link for developer library:

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.1.3 will not convert web page to Pdf

    While using Acrobat 9.1.3 Pro, I cannot convert web pages to PDF format.
    the output is garbled and text is cyrillic or backwards.
    Using Internet Explorer 7.0.5730.13

    You do not have all the fonts embedded, but the basic document looks fine. There is an issue withe the printer setup in your browser that is leading to part of the page running off the paper - but that is a browser issue and not Acrobat. In some cases, a simple fix is to print as landscape.

  • Error converting web page to PDF using Acrobat 8 IE 9 on Vista

  • Firefox 13, and Acrobat X pro; I want the "convert web page to pdf" buttons I use in IE.

    I'm running Firefox 13.0, and I have Acrobat X pro, all running in Win 7 64 bit. 
    How can I add to Firefox (AND to Chrome), the buttons I use in Internet Explorer that enable me to "convert web page to pdf", etc.?
    Do I need to uninstall and reinstall Acrobat X pro? 
    I tried that once, and it did not add the Acrobat toolbar to this (latest) version of Firefox.
    Is it possible to add the Acrobat toolbar buttons "convert web page to pdf", etc. to Chrome?  If so, how can I do it?
    Thanks,
                            Marc

    The supported browsers are found at http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/compatible-web-browsers-pdfmaker-applications.html. So, have you updated Acrobat or are you still sitting with AA10.0? Generally you do not need to reinstall Acrobat in such cases, but the updates and possibly repairs may be needed (not a reinstall).

  • Convert Web Page to PDF formatting problem - 1st line of each paragraph outdented

    Hi Folks,
    I get a formatting problem when I convert any web page to PDF using the 'Convert Web Page to PDF' option - the 1st line of each paragraph is outdented.
    eg if i convert http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/whats-new-acrobat-xi.html I get this:
    I get the same problem using IE 9, Chrome (latest) or Firefox 30.0. I don't get it converting a Word doc to PDF.
    I'm using Adobe Acrobat XI Pro on a PC running Windows 7.
    Is there a simple setting somewhere I am missing?
    Any help much appreciated!

    Are you using "Adobe PDF" or "PDF or XPS?" I sounds like "Adobe PDF," but trying to be sure. Have you updated your Acrobat to the latest version? If not, try that.

  • Error Converting Web Page to PDF?

    Just recently my adobe acrobat 9.4
    refused to convert web pages to pdf. I get the following message:

    Error: Permission Denied

    Does anyone know what this means and why it just started occurring after I've had the program for a few years?
    I tried the modify/repair function which does nothing and uploaded all updates but I'm forced to resort to copying the relevant info
    by copying to a word program. Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Thank you for posting. Me too experience that error  when I tried to convert my payroll webpage to pdf but when I update my browser to the latest version I find no problem.
    Are you mean the problem lies in the browser? rgmorey said he update to the latest IE version but he still has that issue. I don't have this problem and I use two browsers, IE and firefox.
    I install a pdf creating tool and it can be served as virtual printer to save web page as pdf. And it also allows you to add password and compress text or image of pdf file to reduce the size. In my opinion, a better way to preserve webpage content to largest extent is to save webpage as image firstly then convert it to pdf file. 

  • How can I convert web page to PDF? When I upgraded to 4, it does not work.

    Since I upgraded to firefox 4 I can not convert web page to PDF, before there was a place in the upper left corner that said convert to PDF. If there is not a way to do this in 4 then how can I go back to the old firefox. If I can't I guess I will just uninstall FireFox.

  • Lost 'convert web page to pdf'

    Acrobat 9 pro, Windows 7, IE9 32bit.  Had in the menu bar the two comands 'convert web page to pdf' and (can't remeber the other, something about slect?).  Just recently noticed that they no longer show.  Don't see them in IE addon's, or anywhere to activate them.
    Especially want the convert web page to pdf feature.
    Regards
    Gary

    2gARY,  I know exactly what you're saying, because this same thing happened to me.  Using Acrobat 9, all updates:  the Convert & Select toolbars for Acrobat conversion WERE, DEFINITELY,  available a short time ago, in 64-bit IE (8 or 9, not sure, but now on IE9), and then one day recently THEY WEREN'T.    I KNOW this was true because my 32-bit IE will not open certain WebLink8 pages which my City Council uses to archive city council packets, so I always had to use IE 64-bit... and I was ALWAYS able to use the Convert toolbar.  I liked using it because all the hyperlinks WORKED when that was used, as opposed to "print" to "Adobe PDF," where none of the hyperlinks are clickable.  But now it simply disappeared.
    I've read about all the "Acrobat 9 PDF Maker is not compatible with 64-bit IE," but I'm telling you, IT WAS, at least for awhile. 
    I can't "enable" the toolbar extensions, because they are NOT there under "Manage Add-ons."  I also already had my "Enable third-party browser extension" checked under IE9's Tools-Internet Options-Advanced.  
    I don't want to upgrade to Acrobat 10 just to get the toolbar back.  This is MOST frustrating!

  • Remove convert web page to pdf icon

    The convert web page to pdf icon, is just a link to d/l the software, and is totally useless after installing it. It shouldn't be sitting there permanently.

    Hi Ricer46!
    Click on tools and then Add-ons and then disable Adobe Acrobat - Create PDF and restart Firefox. That should do the trick.

  • Convert web pages to pdf in Firefox?

    I just started using Firefox 3.6. Is there a reliable add-on for Firefox that will enable me to convert web pages to pdf's, complete with working links?
    I have Acrobat 9 Standard installed. When I used IE, I had a toolbar that allowed such a conversion, but I haven't come across the same for Firefox.
    Help?
    Thanks.
