Downloading smartform as a word document

Hi How to download smartformoutput as a word document.It was previously displaying as a pdf document.
Can anybody give a sample code
Edited by: Ramya Ramya on May 13, 2009 6:18 AM

hi buddy!!!!
the smartforms are usually saved in OTF format.
so first u need to do all the formalities like calling the function module of that form and executing it
after that u need to use the function module 'CONVERT_OTF' to convert it into ur desired format.
Example:
CALL FUNCTION "CONVERT_OTF"
       EXPORTING    FORMAT                = "PDF"
       IMPORTING    BIN_FILESIZE          = FILE_LEN
       TABLES       OTF                   = OTFDATA
                    LINES                 = PDFDATA
       EXCEPTIONS   ERR_MAX_LINEWIDTH     = 1
                    ERR_FORMAT            = 2
                    ERR_CONV_NOT_POSSIBLE = 3
                    OTHERS                = 4.
in format specify ur desired format type
Hope this will help you!!!
Thanks & Regards,

Download Smartform output in word document

Hi All,
I had a requirement to download the smartform output in ".doc" format.
I had run FM CONVERT_OTF with parameter value format = 'ASCII', and downloaded using .doc format
I was able to download but the output is not having logo and some different symbols are added.
Can any suggest what would be the exact procedure to download the output in word document.
Regards,
Dinakar.

After downloading my file the word document is mostly gibberish. Why? service used exportPDF

After downloading my file the word document is mostly gibberish. Why? Service used "exportPDF".

Hi shelbyrn,
The quality of a conversion really depends on the quality of the original PDF file. Please see Will Adobe ExportPDF convert both text and form... | Adobe Community. Do you know what or how the PDF file was created?
You may have better luck by disabling OCR as described in this document: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (O... | Adobe Community. (Note, however, that is option isn't optimal if the PDF was created from a scanned document; you'd want OCR enabled to convert the image text in the PDF to editable text).

How can we save smartform output as word document

Hi Friends,
Can anybody help me, how to save Smartform output as Word document instead of PDF file.
Thanks,
Ramana.

Hi Venkat,
I think you can do it manually.
After the print preview, Select the menu Goto->List Display.
Now select the menu System->List->Save->Local File.
Now you can select the radio buttion Rich Text Format.
Now you save the document as a .doc file (say test.doc)
That is it!!!!!

Steelers, unfortunately your reply didn't get through. Perhaps you tried to send an attachment or screen shot by email? Please try again (but not sending attachments or screen shots by email).

Is there a free app I can download that is a (Word) Document on my Mac?

Is there a free app I can download that is a (Word) Document on my Mac?

As far as I know, any free word processing apps would be no where near as good as opposed to just purchasing iWork (Apple's version of Word) or Microsoft Office for Mac. It's definitely worth the price to buy one of these if your planning on using it a lot.

Smartform output in word document

hi all,
how to download a smartform in word document so that the user can make changes in it. i tried converting the output into OTF format but formatting is not coming properly.how to overcome this?

Hi,
Even i had the same requirement for a sales order form to download in word and then change it manually before sending to customer. I tried a lot of ways to do the same and finally raised a sap noted for the same.i got a reply from SAP that it is not possible to download forms in word with same allignments maintained with logo. SAP note 641560 says the same thing.
All you need to do is find a technical solution to fill the data which they want to fill maually or go for adobe form. Thats amazing technology to solve your issue.

Formatting output and downloading it as a word document

Hello,
I have come across this requirement where i have to draw a table with certain number of rows and columns(defined), with data in a few columns being static and data in a few other columns being dynamic. Also I need to insert objects like ean xcel sheet or a word document into some columns. Finally download this whole thing as a word document to the desktopobjects(kind of an analysis report). Smartforms do not have any options to insert . So, is there any other way to do this??? Kindly help.

Hi Nandini,
As suggested by Soumya you can go for Webdynpro or else I would like to suggest you to have a SAP Adobe Interactive form.
Please find the links below,.... will give you clear picture on SAP Adobe Interactive forms.

Hope this will suit you.

this is the error because you have alredy closed the output stream
outStream.flush();
outStream.close();
and then you return the Actionforward and struts Controller tries to write to the already closed output stream once again and hence the above exception is thrown

When I want to download anything even pdf's it automatically converts it to a word document, so I cannot even see the documents, pictures, forms or anything. Thank you

When downloading anything Firefox downloads it as a word document causing the document to appear as letter and numbers without sense. Firefox has done it for all documents that as pdf's are in a site, so I can not save them or downloaded, but not even read them.

When downloaded Adobe reader, a Fire Fox down loader window appeared and after several minutes a message said that it was downloaded, but a run window never appeared, so I clicked on the program (on that little fire fox downloader window) and it opened a word document with encoded letter. AGAIN!

Opening a Word document in a form layout html region

Hi all,
In an Interactive Report I use
select '<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#'||package.f_get_document_type ( doc.id )||'" title="Document" width=20 height=20>'
) document
from table
to show an icon that eventually downloads (and shows) a word document.
Now I have a form layout html region and I want to have the same icon\link to show a document.The document however is not in the same table as the rest of the page is based on.
How can I show the document on this page?
Kind Regards,
Maurice

One way, create a hidden item, and return the value into it from your package (by having a computation that calls the function package.f_get_document_type(:P1_DOC_ID) . Let's say it's called :P1_DOC_TYPE
There's a new item type in Apex 4, which is Display Image.
When you get to settings in the item creation wizard, specify what the image is based on. From there, you can set it to be 'Image URL stored in Page item Value. Then on the source page, you can just specify the URL, #WORKSPACE_IMAGES#&P1_DOC_TYPE.

There is no standard possibility to do Word outputs in SAP.
Anyway you can develop connection of Mail-merge technology of Microsoft and SAP ABAP class i_oi_document_proxy.

By using FM RSPO_RETURN_ABAP_SPOOLJOB you will be able to get the ASCII text of your Spool, which you can download to your local HD and open with M$ Word.
Check the function module
CALL FUNCTION 'RSPO_DOWNLOAD_SPOOLJOB'
     EXPORTING
          id    = p_spool
          fname = p_file.
Give the file extn as .DOC. it will downlaod it as a
Word doc.But I fear you wont get the table formats and
all.

Odonnells52 you will still need to install Adobe Acrobat Professional prior to being able to make edits to PDF or utilize Acrobat. By default the installation files have been saved to your download folder.
If you continue to face difficulties with the Adobe Download Assistant then please see Troubleshoot Adobe Download Assistant.
You can also download the installation files directly from Download Acrobat products | Standard, Pro | XI, X if you are unable to locate the downloaded installation files.
