Converting HTML into PDF
Hello ABAP Experts,
I have a request to convert a HTML Response (FM: HTTP2_GET) into a PDF Document.
Has any body an idea how to handle that.
Thank you very much for you answers.
Kind regards
Axel
The easiest way to convert web pages/sites into PDF is with Acrobat! Important: this is Acrobat (costs a few dollars) and not Acrobat Reader!
Acrobat has a web capture tool. With the older version I tested there was some minor problems.
(1) It is not recognized as a browser we support. You will have to knock out the browser checking for this to work. Look at the cl_htmlb_content->runtime_validation. The last case statement. Modify your system to temporarily comment this out. (Do not forget to place it back!).
(2) The older version I tested with had problems to convert complex pages into PDF. The new rendering we use is to browser specific. Your milage might vary.
Alternative could be just to "print" the page from the browser into a PDFWriter (kind of printer driver that comes with Acrobat). This actually worked very well.
Alternative is just to make screenshots into word document and convert this into PDF.
> Please help me ..
With this, I think we have now helped you. In return, you can help us with a nice append (or better a small weblog) about the "huge project that was a challange". These war stories shared by the fire side makes for interesting reading, and I am sure other people would also be interested in seeing what you achieved. Looking forward to it.

Is anybody programmatically converting HTML to PDF? If so, how?
Is anybody programmatically converting HTML to PDF? If so, how?
With InDesign, or something else?
As long as the application (InDesign or something else) has a command-line interface, i'd like to know about it.
Am using .NET, but we still want to know what you're doing even if you aren't.
Source data is HTML pages from random sources, so it's not necessarily XHTML unfortunately, though i could tidy it into a consistent form.thanks, but what i'm looking for here is programmatic usage -- that is, scripted or command-line -- not having a human user choosing menu options, etc
so as to your two suggestions ...
this would appear to be NOT programmatic ...
> And Acrobat will install a PDF convert toolbar for Internet Explorer to do this right from the browser.
and this might or might not be possible to program -- i don't know if people are somehow running Acrobat programmatically, would appreciate further information

Converting pictures into PDF files
How do I convert pictures into PDF files, is this possible?
If you want to use acrobat reader, you have to pay for it.
So, I use other free or cheap apps to do so =>
* powerpdf
* dragonprinter (draakprinter in dutch)
* writepdf
* scanapp (to convert parts of a picture)
I even think that almost every scan-app can convert pictures into pdf's. -
Trouble in fop(convert html 2 pdf) source.
to convert html 2 pdf file I found the article from javaworld.
(http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-04-2006/jw-0410-html.html)
unfortunately I can't seem to find the two classes below even though import all fop 0.94 library files.
are there something I'm missing?
Thanks.
import org.apache.fop.apps.Driver;
import org.apache.fop.tools.DocumentInputSource;Much thanks for your timely reply. The scanner software requires that one must scan to an application. The configuration has to point to an executable. In program files I must select an executable, in this case acrobat.exe. Have been using this for years and never have seen a problem. Continues guidance sought.

dragontail77HTML to PDF with Java, using OpenOffice.org - example here: [http://www.dancrintea.ro/html-to-pdf/|http://www.dancrintea.ro/html-to-pdf/]
You can use OpenOffice.org, running as a server and command it remotely for document convertion.
Besides HTML to PDF, there are also possible other convertions:
doc --> pdf, html, txt, rtf
xls --> pdf, html, csv
ppt --> pdf, swf
Code example:
import officetools.OfficeFile; // this is my tools package
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(new File("c:/test.html"));
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(new File("c:/test.pdf"));
// suppose OpenOffice.org runs on localhost, port 8100
OfficeFile f = new OfficeFile(fis,"localhost","8100", true);
f.convert(fos,"pdf");

Automate converting HTML to PDF
Hi,
I'm using my iPad to write documents using Byword that I export using HTML (export to PDF doesn't take account of HTML headers and rendering MathJax).
Lets say that the text file therefore is called MathJax.txt and is in the location such that it's file path is Dropbox/Byword/MathJax.txt
This HTML file is saved straight onto my Dropbox in the current location. (i.e. Dropbox/Byword/MathJax.html )
If anyone can help, I'm looking for a way to convert the HTML to PDF with the MathJax rendered, either with cli, applescript or automator - just some way I can activate it with Hazel.
I've seen wkhtmltopdf which looks like it would do the bit I'm missing, but I'm not very knowledgeable and have no idea how to use it.
Any advice would be much appreciated!
FreddieThere is an app version in Google code…
https://code.google.com/p/wkhtmltopdf/
I downloaded it & opened it & it appeared to do nothing! However I also did right click > (or ctrl+click) Show Package contents… and navigated to Contents/MacOS/wkhtmltopdf. That is a compiled binary that will run in Terminal.
To use the binary drop it into Terminal, and then drop your PDF into there (to enter the path) and then enter a file destination & name (ensuring a space after the PDF path).
My command looked like…
/Volumes/wkhtmltopdf/wkhtmltopdf.app/Contents/MacOS/wkhtmltopdf /Users/dru/Desktop/pdfroff\(1\)\ Mac\ OS\ X\ Manual\ Page.html /Users/dru/Desktop/test2.pdf
The backslashes escape the spaces & other special characters, Terminal will deal with all that if you drag & drop to create the path. The hardest part is setting the destination - it's simplest to use an existing file & delete the end part & add a new name.
Hit return & you get a PDF, I don't know if this covers MathJax formatting, I have never heard of that sorry.
One good thing about this is that you can automate it with Automator, Hazel or a shell script etc.
I expect you'll need further help so ask away.
Frankly it is a little bit kludgy, you should really download the source & compile it, but that is rather involved.
There are a few html to PDF apps, but they appear to be $20 up to several hundred & it isn't clear if they can automate the process.
P.S. I tested this on my 10.6 system that has lots of tools installed, so I may have items that you don't, note any errors & I'll try to help, otherwise wait for a better idea. -

Converting Smartform into PDF preview layout
Hi ABAP experts,
We have converted an existing invoice layout smart form into PDF layout in print preview mode. However, we have an issue with PDF layout alignment. Earlier, it used to print the documents correctly (layout is aligned properly at the middle of the page). But when use this 'PDF' preview layout (triggered from smart form) the layout is left aligned/ larger right margin (but not at the middle).
We have gone through the existing forum links on this PDF layout generating from smart form. But no luck on this left alignment issue. Do we need to modify the OTF data that is being populated in the layout. Can it be modifed with the position of the layout dynamically. Please advise.
Technical team has used "CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF" to populate the OTF data.
In SAP note # 323736 (issued in 2006), the below limitation was mentioned. But do we have any way to resolve this page alignment issue.
Page size for SAPscript/SmartForms: PDF conversion uses the page format from the form definition as page size for the PDF document. If this has been defined larger than the page size that is actually used (for example for INCH12, INCH11 and so on), a reduced document or a larger right margin are the
result when you view/print in Acrobat Reader.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
SatyaHi Satya,
'We tried that option of "PDF!" but it didn't work for this smart form. Do we need to include/activate any option for this in the smart form.'..What do you mean by it didn't work for this smartform.?
Execute your smartform and when you are in the print preview mode of the form means you get the output, then type PDF! in the command and hit ENTER. A popup will get displayed if you are using windows 7
or Allow and decline type of radiobutton option will be displayed if you are using Windows XP. So just click Allow and your smartform output will be displayed in pdf. Now you can save the pdf output file while clicking the save option in PDF. Your smartform output will be aligned properly in the PDF.
You don't need any activation or any FM for converting the output in pdf for this.
Basically, we do this to attach the smartform output in test plan.
NOTE: This is for only to get the output in PDF while you are in Print preview of the form.
Regards
Syed
