DIFFERENT PAGE FORMATS

Hi All.
i have an issue in the form printing.
In my form I have to pages.
I want the first page in Potroit format and second one in Landscape.
for this requirement,how to deal in Scripts and in Smart forms.
Can any body help me to solve this issue,.
Thanks in advance,
regards,
eswar

With onli one form u cannot achieve this.. but u need to have two same forms .. one with Landscape orientation.. and second with Portrait orientation...
( Otherwise u can go for the SMARTFORMS , with smartforms u can achieve this in a single form )
There is a way to have first page in landscape and second page in portrait.
Use
START_FORM
END_FORM
twice one form in each having different page setting(like landscape....)
See this code:
REPORT ZTEST_LANDSCAPE.

How to trigger different page formats dynamically in smartforms

Hi ,
I have a requirement in smartform,want to trigger different page formants based on country code for ex if country code is ZA12 then pageformant should be DINA4 else page format should be LETTER.
Rgrds
Vasumathi

Hi,
According to me, you have to create 2 smartforms, one in DINA4 and other in LETTER format.
In your driver program, you have to maintain condtion depending on country code.
if country code = 'ZA12'.
call fm <--- DINA4 format
else.
call fm <--- LETTER format
endif.

Different page formats in single Smartform

Hello Experts,
I have an requirement in my custom Smartforms. I want my first page as by default DINA4 page in where as from second onwards, I want DINA3 page format. Could it be possible? If yes, how I can achieve this? Thanks in advance.

Hi Mayuresh,
You can't give two page format in one smartform
The page format are declared in form attributes it will be same for all pages
one thing you can do is change it to landscape or potrait.

AP Check different page format

Hi Gurus ,
I am printing AP Check using Sapscript . I have to Print the first page in Legal format & Next page inLetter format . How can i control this.
Thanks in advance

To achieve this kind of scenario you have to modify your driver program, create two forms with your required formats.
Now, fix the lenght of main window ex, 10 line items if it is more then 10 items then it should goto next page, now in your driver program, read the size of internal table.. it line items less then or equal to 10 print in first page, if more then 10 items print first 10 items in first page and delete this 10 line items from internal table and pass the rest to second page.
Rough idea.
OPEN_FORM "Open FORM 1
**USE DO 10 times
WRITE_FORM " PRINT 10 line items on FORM1
*Delete this 10 line items from internal table
**END DO
CLOSE_FORM "Close FORM 1
IF internal table still have values
OPEN_FORM "OPEN FORM 2
WRITE_FORM " PRINT all line items that are left
CLOSE_FORM

ADOBE READER (9.4.1) prints several files from one Word doc with different pages formats

I work with Word for Mac, version 11.6.1
When I have one document with several pages setup (say different sizes, or landscape and vertical orientation) and I need to convert to PDF, I got several PDF files, one for each page section of my document.
How can I get only one PDF for my whole document ?
Thanks a lot.

Cant print PO - wrong page format

Hi all
I have a smartforms to print PO.
I encounter this problem which some PO cant be print while some other PO can be printed.
Its quite confusing since only some cant be print.
Below is the message:
Form TXT_CONTACT has wrong page format.
Message no. SSFCOMPOSER026
Diagnosis
Form TXT_CONTACT has a different page format than the forms output previously but has been added to the same spool request.
System Response
Form TXT_CONTACT ist not processed.
Procedure
While forms are formatted (FM SSFCOMP_OPEN to FM SSFCOMP_CLOSE), the page format must not be changed. All forms within one spool request must have the same page format.
The first page format used, in this case paper format , is applicable to all subsequent forms.
Please guide me.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Check the NEXT page's PAGE FORMAT what is used in the smartform and make it the same as that of the FIRST page.
I believe the POs which are not being able to print do spill over into the next pages.
Regards,
Ram

Whats mass printing ?multiple page formating?

whats mass printing ?multiple page formating?

hi..
plz follow the mentioned web link for mass printing ..
and multiple page formatting is ...
sapscript does not support multiple page formatting where as smartform does.
Multiple page formating is nothing havinfg different page formats in a form.
eg..
sapscript zform has 3 pages..
1 page has portrait
2 page has landscape format and 3rd page has landascape.
this is not possible with sapscript..it tends to error. however, you can do so in smartform. Also this is sometime possible in sapscript by creating different form for each page and using the same print program.
regrds,

Page Format different than doc

I have converted a pdf file to a word doc so I can insert into my document but the margins are different and the form is being cut off when I insert. I cannot change the margins on my document do to the large content. How can I get it to fit?

Hello Peter,
All our projects reside on a shared network drive. We both
have access to them. When I say "my PC" or "my partner's PC", I
mean that the project is open on my or my partner's PC. But it is
the same project, not a copy of the project.
We tried your suggestion, and both projects generated letter
size documents on my side, and A4 documents on her side.
Since my original post, we have reinstalled RH as suggested
on a different message board. This did not solve this problem. We
have checked and installed update files from the Adobe site - no
change. We've even had our techies poke around, but they couldn't
come up with anything.
Our only working solution so far is to generate the Word
document and change the page format manually. Which doesn't sound
too bad, except that 2 of our projects each require 17 different
pdf files - so it makes for a lot of manual attention as opposed to
a simple "Batch Generate".
As I wrote in my first post, I'm not sure if this is a RH
issue, so I really appreciate any help you can provide.
Thanks
Ben

!Format event, Global fields & different pages

Hi, very new to Output Designer and having a couple of head scratching moments with something I've been asked to do.
I have a requirement to show or not show a barcode dependant on the initial chartacter of an order number. However, the order number and barcode are on different pages. I changed the order number on page 1 to be a global field, but when I go into the !Format event for the barcode field on page 10 it doesn't show up in the globals fields list.
As a way of testing I put the following code in the format event of another field on page 10, the barcode field page.
@(If ("@(Substr ("@ORDER_NUMBER.", 1, 1))" == "R", "R", "NOT R"))
This wouldn't work as it interperates "@ORDER_NUMBER." as a literal string value of @ORDER_NUMBER. and not a global field.
So, I suppose my question is - Is it possible for a field on one page of a form know what the value of a field on another page is?
All the best
Chris

I believe that if a field is defined as global
b in the data file
then it should be able to be referenced on any page. It shouldn't matter what page actually
b prints
the field. Effectively, all the global items in the data file are loaded into a "dictionary" and are available for reference anywhere within the form. Unfortunately, the field list provided for the !format event only shows the fields on that page, not all the fields in the form.
If @ORDER_NUMBER. (as a literal) is what the instruction operates against then the field "ORDER_NUMBER" doesn't exist in the data file. At least that is what some recent testing tells me.

Different page sizes in one pdf file will not scale to print correctly

Hello all,
     I have a pdf document that contains three different page sizes; 8.5"x11", 11"x17" and 34"x22". These pdf files are custom manuals and we print many of these over the course of a month.
     In the older versions of Adobe Acrobat when printing this type of file, I could click print, select the page setup size to 11"x17", then select shrink oversize pages (or fit, depending), and choose paper by pdf page size and I would get the following pages from the printer - 8.5"x11" page would print on a 8.5"x11" paper, 11"x17" on 11"x17" and (most importantly) 34"x22" on 11"x17". We do this because our printer does not have paper larger than 11"x17" yet the customer also receives a soft copy of the file and many times prints the large pages full size as needed on their large format plotters.
     With the newer versions of Acrobat, this will not work. The only way these files will print automatically is to scale the 22"x34" down to 8.5"x11".   Why would I want to scale it smaller than my largest available paper size? Also, all of the 11"x17" pages in a multi page size document will come out of the printer rotated 180° yet Adobe shows them correctly when the file is opened.
     Also, when I use the settings above, the print preview box shows the document correctly! The HP technicians have the latest drivers installed and they have shown me where it seems that Adobe is not even sending the larger sheets but instead stops the printing process with an error. So I try to send a 20 page document but Adobe stops at the first 22x34 page.
     We have now lost our old computers with every last old version of Acrobat that I could use to make this work due to mandatory hardware and OS upgrades. I must find a way to print these documents without individually selecting different pages to print and then trying to assemble the document afterward.
     How do I preserve the pages sizes in my document and print the large pages scaled down to the largest paper size I have available in my printer?
Thanks ahead of time.

Ajlan,
     Thank you for your time. I am still having the issue. I am using Adobe reader 11.0.09 and Adobe Acrobat 10.1.12. Neither one have the option in the print menu that you show for a physical printer. They only offer that option for an Adobe PDF creation driver.
     It seems as though the printer you have selected in your menu is only for creating a pdf. I need to physically print the pdf. Do you have this same option when you select a physical printer?
(edited to update screen shot)

In output options u can define whether a page can portrait or land scape in print attributes.

How do we print multiple components each in a different page?

hello
I would like to print multiple JPanels (lets say an array) each in a different page.

 printerJob.setPrintable(printTable.getInstance(), pageFormat);
 try

 printerJob.print();
