Excel to PDF conversion still going after 10 minutes?
This is a simple one page Excel sheet I was trying to convert, just to see if I wanted to purchase the service. It has been about 10 minutes since I clicked on the 'convert' button, how long should this take? Seems kind of crazy for it to be this long.
I have checked all of the system requirements, and that is all in order, and my internet connection is lightning fast on everything else I am doing online. What else could be causing this?
Another suggestion is to try the service from another browser, or another computer if you happen to have one. It's also a good idea to make sure you have the most recent version of Flash installed:

Let me know!
Thanks,

PDF CONVERSION STILL NOT CLEAR
HI ANJI, SAIRAM,.......
your code is working..
now i am getting pdf file without print form..(its not possible take printout)..
suppose i want 3 cases like.
1. i want to see the output form
2. i want to take printout
3. i need a pdf file after executing
I NEED A CODE FOR BOTH SAPSCRIPT AND SMARTFORMS ..
CAN YOU PLZ...........
i am waiting for your replay...
thanks in advanceThere are function module that display smartform in PDF format on screen.
There are two ways:
1) Call smartform with option -getotf is set.
Call funtion module CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF
Save this PDF file to your local PC using fm 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'.
Call function module 'WS_EXECUTE' to run your pdf file
2) Call smartform with option -getotf is set.
Call function module SSF_PDF_PREVIEW (I don't remember exactly now, i'll confirm later)
This function module will display OTF-data under pdf format.
PDF-based forms are part of the SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe solution. You use this solution to create and edit PDF forms for printing in SAP systems. As well as standard output on printers, and the option of archiving documents, you can also use your application to send a PDF to the Business Communication Services (BCS). Here, you have the option of faxing or e-mailing your documents.
The following gives you an overview of how a PDF-based form is structured, and also tells you how to create a PDF-based form in the development environment of ABAP Workbench. The integrated Adobe LiveCycle Designer software supports you when you do this. This software must be installed on your front end before you can create a layout. To see a print preview of your form, you first need to install Adobe Reader or a complete version of Adobe Acrobat.
You create and edit interactive forms in the development environment SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio. To create interactive forms here, you use the interface element InteractiveForm in Web Dynpro for Java.
This documentation does not discuss how documents are printed and controlled on printers. Instead, it discusses the whole process up to when a file is sent to output management functions, such as the spool system in SAP systems. Note that, for printing and previewing PDF-based forms, you need to use a PCL, Postscript, or ZPL printer and an appropriate device type (such as POST2, HPLJ4, HP9500, PDF1, AZPL203, or AZPL300). You cannot use a printer with the device type SAPWIN/SWIN. More information is available in the SAP Printing Guide (BC-CCM-PRN), under Printing PDF-Based Forms.
Integration
An activated PDF-based form corresponds to a callable function module in the SAP system. The complete logic of the form is represented by this function module. When a form is printed, it is called by an application program, which collects the relevant application data. The application program uses the function module interface to send the data. Therefore, the data collection process is split from the logic of the form. This means that you only need to adjust the form when you modify the logic or layout.
Features
To develop a PDF-based form, you use the Form Builder tool that is integrated with ABAP Workbench. This tool enables you to create a complete form description, even if you do not have extensive programming skills. The tool supports you in the following tasks:
● Creating layouts
Here, you use the Adobe LiveCycle Designer to design pages or create the layout.
● Specifying the data used in the form
In the form context, you specify which data, tables, texts, and graphics are sent to the form.
● Migration of Smart Forms
By migrating Smart Forms, you can reuse them as PDF-based forms. You can find the Smart Form migration tool in transaction SMARTFORMS.
Smart Forms are still supported; you can continue to forms created in Smart Forms without making any changes.
● Importing existing PDF files or forms
This tool is integrated into Adobe LiveCycle Designer and enables you to use your own templates for your form.
● Scripting
Adobe LiveCycle Designer uses the script languages JavaScript and FormCalc. FormCalc is a simple Adobe script language for typical form calculations, including mathematical and logical functions, and date and character string functions. For more information about FormCalc, and a FormCalc language reference, see the online help of LiveCycle Designer.
To achieve the best level of performance when processing forms, use as little scripting as possible in the form. If possible, perform all calculations and data analysis in the application program, before the form is called.
● Printing and archiving the PDF form:
You can use output parameters to specify print and archive settings, and so adapt the output to your requirements. These parameters are not viewed in Form Builder. Instead, you control them with function modules that you integrate in your application program.
Restrictions
Note that local print versions may differ from print versions produced using spool requests in the SAP system. You can print out parts of PDF forms (such as selected pages) as local print versions only, using Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader. Information about further restrictions is available in SAP Note 1009567.
you can save your smartform as a pdf.

Problems with Excel 2007 PDF conversion
I'm trying to convert an Excel 2007 workbook into a PDF. I installed Acrobat 8.1.3 Professional onto my machine and it put an Acrobat Menu choice in Excel. So I can convert, but now I have a host of problems/issues, probably arising from the fact that I'm new to this.
1. The Acrobat add-in moved my Page Breaks inside Excel
2. Now I can't seem to change the page breaks at all in Page Break Preview
3. My Reset Page Breaks in Excel is grayed out
4. Acrobat conversion gave me a message "Cannot create tags for Worksheets with Print Titles. Clear Print Titles field in Page Setup dialog". I did have Print titles, but now in that dialog box they don't show. The field isn't even editable.
I have saved the Excel file, not realizing that this Acrobat add-in has apparently altered the Excel file itself. I am now told by someone that I should just not use that Acrobat menu in Excel, and load the Excel file from Acrobat 8 itself. Nice to know. But is there anyway to "reset" my Excel file and remove/adjust what's been done to it, especially the Page Breaks. Or am I missing something obvious?In general, you should not have the page breaks and all locked out by the addition of the Adobe PDF printer and converter. One trick to pull is to try to find the option in Excel Options that allows the output to use the printer metrics and be sure it is turned off. That should mean that you do not get changes as you change the printer. However, the issue of some of your menu items being locked and such is strange.

Acrobat 7.0 Pro Excel to pdf conversion problem
I have a multiple page excel document with specific data on specific pages, basically making slides within excel. When it prints to a printer, all is well and each page prints as it should. However, when I convert it to pdf for distribution, it seems like the pages shrink and I get data from page 3 on the bottom of page 2, data from page 4 on the bottom of page 3, and so on until a few pages later, I have a page with the bottom half of one slide, and the top half of another. Has anyone ever ran into this problem, or can anyone help find a solution? Thanks!!
EricTwo parts of AA 7 will not install on Win 7 (32 or 64-bit): the Adobe PDF printer and AcroTray.exe. You can install a separate color PS printer (either one from Adobe or possibly one for an HP color PS printer), change the name to Adobe PDF and change the port to FILE. That should do the job, but you will ALWAYS have an extra step in the creation of a PDF. You will have to print to the printer and a PS file will be created (probably with a PRN extension). You then have to open that file in Distiller to create a PDF. From my brief testing, this process will work and the rest of Acrobat and Distiller seem to work (though I did not test extensively). If this is unacceptable to you, then purchase AA XI (upgrade not available from AA 7).

Page numbers incorrect after conversion from Excel to pdf
Page numbers incorrect after conversion from Excel to pdf
""This above link (thread:834599) is from a case back in 2011 that claims to solve this problem, but it does not solve this problem. I think that customer only cared about having continuous page numbering, not discrete page numbering per sheet.
========================
I still have this issue in Acrobat XI and MS Office Professional Plus 2010. I keep upgrading to no avail. This regression has resulted in a huge time drain for me. If you fixed it, please explain how I can get my hands on the resolution.
Previous versions of Excel and Adobe Acrobat enabled flexibility around the "Page #" of "Number of Pages" (Page &[Page] of &[Pages]) token, depending on context and usage. The "# of pages" token could represent EITHER the number of pages in the workbook OR the number of pages in the tab/sheet, depending on how you generated the PDF:
You could select "Selected Sheets" and then select all or some of the individual sheets in the workbook, and the PDF would honor the discrete numbering of each of the sheets, so the first page of each sheet was p1 and the "# of pages" was the number of pages in the sheet; not the number of pages in the workbook; or
You could select "Entire Workbook" and the PDF would honor continuous page numbers across all sheets, as a single document.
Now, it only honors the total number of pages in the workbook, regardless of the method you use to publish to PDF: saving as PDF, printing to PDF, using "createPDF" from Acrobat plugin to Excel's menu ribbon; selecting all sheets, some sheets, or Entire Workbook; automatic First page number or "1" under Page Setup > Page> First page number. (This last option, btw, does restart every sheet at p1, but it hardly makes sense if the total number of pages is still the total number in the workbook instead of the number in the sheet.)
I spent a lot of time trying each which way that the blog posts recommended and have tried this on multiple versions of Excel and Acrobat now.
NONE of these time-consuming experiments gave me what I wanted.They all insist that "Page #" of "Number of Pages" (Page &[Page] of &[Pages]) is the total number of pages in the workbook or the total number of pages in the selected sheets combined.
The numbering are correct in Excel Page Layout.
The same issue happens when using LibreOffice calc. (Although, I never tested with Libre Office before, so I don't know that it ever worked).
The workaround now is to create PDF for each spreadsheet one at a time, and then compile them using the Acrobat combine/binder feature. All alternatives are extremely time consuming and tedious. It used to be automatic. This is a major regression that has gone untreated for over a year now, maybe two years.
My task takes infinitely more time to complete than it did with previous versions of Acrobat. That means that days are added to my project, when the functionality used to enable a quick pdf generation that was ready for review, now I have to do this very manual time-consuming set of steps to generate a draft. As the project has grown and more tabs are added, my pdf-generation task takes that much longer. We require lots of drafts. It used to be easy and fast. Now it is hard and time-consuming.
In my opinion, the problem is not Excel; it is Acrobat because it was introduced with an upgrade in Acrobat, not an upgrade in Excel. The problem was introduced in Acrobat 9 or 10. Please provide a patch or add-on or something.If you are setting up the page numbers in Excel, the resulting PDF would display the the page numbers created in Excel. On Excel 2010 support page, (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/insert-and-remove-page-numbers-on-worksheets- HA010342619.aspx#BM2) is stated the following "tip" which indicates by default Excel 2010 starts numbering each tab with 1. Exel's workaround tip is below -
Set a different number for the starting page
Tip To number all of the worksheet pages in a workbook sequentially, first add page numbers to all worksheets in a workbook, and then use the following procedure to begin the page number for each worksheet with the appropriate number. For example, if your workbook contains two worksheets that with both be printed as two pages, you would use this procedure to begin the page numbering for the second worksheet with the number 3.
On the Page Layout tab, in the Page Setup group, click the Dialog Box Launcher next to Page Setup.
On the Page tab, in the First page number box, type the number that you want to use for the first page.
Tip To use the default numbering system, type Auto in the First page number box.
Also helpful in the same section is the note on viewing page numbers. To see if the page numbering dilemma originates in Excel make sure you are using the Page Layout View see below:
Hide All
If you want numbers shown on pages when you print a worksheet you can insert page numbers in the headers or footers of the worksheet pages. Page numbers that you insert are not displayed on the worksheet in Normal view — they are shown only in Page Layout view and on the printed pages.
Overall it may be easier not to create the page numbers in Excel but instead create then in Acrobat using the Headers and Footers option in Acrobat. I hope this helps - it sounds like a frustrating issue you are experiencing.
