Error while opening PDF attachment sent via mail

Hi,
I am attaching PDF file to PO in me22n and sending the same file as attachment in the mail to the vendor using class CL_BCS.
The mail is sent to the vendor successfully and they are able to successfully open the PDF attachment. But in some cases the mail is successfully received but while opening the attachment it is giving the error as file is corrupted.
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks and regards,
Jayashree

Hi,
I would like to know what font type, you are using in the forms.
Ideally it should be HELVETICA .
If you are using any other font in your style/form,try changing it to HELVETICA & Test.
Also Check the OTF data at the call of gen. FM,before converting it to PDF.
Regds,
AS

    Sounds familiar but not sure. Have you tried using OTF format in stead of PDF and in the file name use document.pdf??

  • Error in opening PDF attachment sent using SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1

    Hi all,
    I am converting script to PDF using FM 'SX_OBJECT_CONVERT_OTF_PDF'. Using this table i am trying to send it as a attachment to mail id. I am able to send the attachment successfully, but not able to open the attachment.
    It is giving error as 'Adobe Reader could not open file because it is either not supported file type or because the file has been damaged'.
    I tried seaching on SDN, but did not get useful answer.
    Can you please help me in resolving this error?
    Thanks,
    Archana

    Good day Archana,
    This is the same problem we have encountered, this has started after adding a patch.
    After doing so much R & D we could not do it. We have written a mail to SAP and they
    have instructed the basis consultant to follow certain procedure and finally the issue is
    solved.
    I suggest you to consult basis consultants.
    Regards and Best wishes.

  • I cannot open PDF filkes sent via email. I used too. nHow do I fix.

    Cannot open PDF files sent via email. The open via Word in encripted jinerish. This has not happend until now.
    Ciro

    I had the same problem.  My version of RoboHelp is pretty old (x5) and the problem was with pdfs made up in version 9.  Some pdfs would open and some would not.  It depended on the version used to make the pdf.  Got error messages and corrupted file messages.
    I solved the problem by using the full version of Acrobat and using the pdf Optimizer to make compatible with version 5( just to make sure).
    Another option is to "print" to the pdf printer when the file is open.
    Both then can be imported into RoboHelp without a problem
    Hope this helps.  It ruined many days at work for me while I tried to figure out what on earth I was going to do.

    My Generated Spool request is PDF Spool. It contains Adobe Forms data. To Download Adobe form
                 Spool (PDF Spool) into PDF format,
    First,
    A)     Read PDF Spool data by using u2018FPCOMP_CREATE_PDF_FROM_SPOOLu2019 Function module.
    B)     Assign the Output Data to XSTRING format
    C)     Convert that XSTRING data to Binary Format using 'SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY' Function module.
    D)     Save File on Application server using OPEN DATASET , TRANSFER , CLOSE DATASET.You can see your
                          downloaded file in Transaction AL11 in specified directory.
    You can save your file on Presentation server also using GUI_DOWNLOAD.
    First three steps are necessary if your spool is PDF Spool.

  • Error while opening PDF in mail attachment

    Hi All,
    In smartform i am sending a mail with attachemnt as PDF file,there is one more option like preview of smartform .
    issue is like i am able to see the preview of the same record but when it is sent in mail attachement,and while opening PDF its showing error that file can not be open it is corrupted.
    Please help.
    Mona Singh.

    Dear Sandra
    That was my problem: binary data was incorrectly converted (often because of Unicode systems).
    I returned
            bin_filesize          = v_len_in
            bin_file              = l_binfile
    from the function module CONVERT_OTF, then converted the xstring data (l_binfile) into an internal table (t_objbin) to send to the mail send function with the following function module:
        CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY'
          EXPORTING
            buffer        = l_binfile
          IMPORTING
            output_length = v_lines_bin
          TABLES
            binary_tab    = t_objbin.
    Many thanks for your help.
    Best regards
    Patricia

  • Can't open PDF attachment in e-mail sent from Outlook, says I need to save first, how?

    Cannot open PDF attachment in webmail sent from Outlook, says I need to save first; how do I save the link?

    Looks like another user asked similar question with over 600 views and no replies ... hmmm.  When I click on the attachment, it says I must save it to my disk; with one button mouse just click once and save?  I've tried dragging and saving the attachment to word doc but opened up with a page of garbled words/symbols,etc.  Any ideas are welcome.

  • Getting error while opening pdf on server

    Dear All,
    I am working on jdeveloper 11.1.1.4.0.
    I have a use case where on click of link , generating a dynamic pdf. The pdf i am arranging with the help of itext through backing bean. It is generating as well downloading the pdf.I have used filedownloadlistner to call the generate and download pdf methods.
    On integrated weblogic server the pdf is working fine, but when i deploy on server while opening pdf getting error :
    *"Adobe Reader could not open 'test.pdf' beacause it is either not a supported file type*
    *or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and*
    *wasn't correctly decoded)."*
    I am not able to get the root cause for the problem. The sample code to generate and download pdf is :
    // Generate PDF
    private void generatePDFFile(FacesContext facesContext,
    java.io.OutputStream outputStream) {
    try {
    System.out.println("In Generate PDF................");
    Document document = new Document(PageSize.A4);
    PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream(FILE));
    document.open();
    addMetaData(document);
    addTitlePage(document);
    document.close();
    System.out.println("End of PDF......................");
    facesContext = facesContext.getCurrentInstance();
    ServletContext context = (ServletContext)facesContext.getExternalContext().getContext();
    System.out.println(context.getRealPath("/"));
    String FILE = "test.pdf";
    File file = new File(FILE);
    FileInputStream fdownload;
    //BufferedInputStream bis;
    byte[] b;
    System.out.println(file.getCanonicalPath());
    System.out.println(file.getAbsolutePath());
    fdownload = new FileInputStream(file);
    int n;
    while ((n = fdownload.available()) > 0) {
    b = new byte[n];
    int result = fdownload.read(b);
    outputStream.write(b, 0, b.length);
    if (result == -1)
    break;
    outputStream.flush();
    } catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    Download PDF
    private void downloadPDF(FacesContext facesContext, java.io.OutputStream outputStream) {
    try {
    facesContext = facesContext.getCurrentInstance();
    ServletContext context = (ServletContext)facesContext.getExternalContext().getContext();
    ExternalContext ctx = facesContext.getExternalContext();
    HttpServletResponse res = (HttpServletResponse)ctx.getResponse();
    res.setContentType("application/pdf");
    outputStream = res.getOutputStream();
    System.out.println(context.getRealPath("/"));
    File file = new File(FILE); // FILE = 'test.pdf'
    FileInputStream fdownload;
    // BufferedInputStream bis;
    byte[] b;
    fdownload = new FileInputStream(file);
    //bis = new BufferedInputStream (new FileInputStream(file));
    int n;
    while ((n = fdownload.available()) > 0) {
    b = new byte[n];
    int result = fdownload.read(b);
    //outputStream.write(b, 0, b.length);
    outputStream.write(b, 0, b.length);
    if (result == -1)
    break;
    outputStream.flush();
    outputStream.close();
    fdownload.close();
    } catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Kanika

    If the pdf file don't open on the server where you created them, they won't open on the client side either.
    The code you are using should be refactored to use different file names for the generated files. In a multi user environment (which every web application is) you overwrite the file generated with each new request, even before the file is loaded by a client. This will corrupt the file a client is loading and you get the error you see.
    Next I would look into org.apache.commons.io package (http://commons.apache.org/io/) which has utility classes which allows easy handling of streams without looping over the data.

  • Error While Opening PDF File in SAP Inbox

    Hello Experts,
    I am facing a weird error in SAP Inbox while opening a PDF files (both created by custom ABAP programs as well as the one attached to a new SAP Inbox message from my desktop & sent to my Inbox as a test).
    The error states that "This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel.".
    I checked TCode DC30 also & found an appropriate program is already maintained for PDF.
    I couldn't make out more out of this error message. Any inputs in this regard will be highly appreciable.
    Regards,
    Shaurya

    Hi,
      Find out the FM that's generating the actual error through de-bug and analyze the same by looking in OSS and or SDN.
