Formated long text in Adobe PrintForms

I have a problem with the formatting of long texts in Adobe PrintForms.
On certain documents, for example, the basic data text of the article must be given.
This can contain words in UPPER CASE and then these must be given bold.
Does somebody have a tip, how is this to be moved?
Regards Andreas

Hi,
Yes you can include dynamic texte in your form . If your forms is based on DDIC interface on the context part you cann add node type Text . Fro each node of type Text you have to set if it's a dynamic text ( smartforms text ) , or include text ( sapscript's ) .
If your form is based on a XML interface just add a node with the all value required .
Hope this help you .
Regards

Formatting Long Text gets disturbed during Adobe form Printing

Hi Guru's,
I have developed Adobe Form for PM work Orders (IW32) printing using Code u2018SFPu2019. The Order Contains order Long Text or Operation Long Text.
In my case the user maintains some table like structure in the Long text .e.g. ( Here the tab means the actual space and the text length can vary. So basically he will draw a table cells one below another by adjusting tab's)
Text 2 Tab Tab |___|___|
Te TabTab Tab |___|___|
I am reading this using READ_TEXT and it gets perfectly read.( I mean the tab positions will be intact. Also it will remain intact by the time ADS will get called)
When i submit this for generating Adobe Form the formatting of the tab positions gets disturbed and it prints something like
Text 2 |___|___|
Te |___|___|
How to keep the Tab positions intact while printing the Adobe Form? For SAP script printing it comes perfectly but for Adobe form printing it gets disturbed. Any idea how to handle this situation?
Thanks
Pradeep

Tough request!
You have to calculate the widths of texts so that to determine to which tab position refers each tab character.
You might print the sapscript to OTF format, and read the OTF to get the exact positions (based on top left border of the page).
But now comes the second big issue: how to position a text in Adobe form at a dynamic position. That, I don't know. You might ask a question about this 2nd issue in forum

Problem in formatting long text

Hi Experts,
I am printing quality notification using adobe forms.
The problem is that if there is any <TAB> in the longtext , then it is being printed as ',,'.
Ex. Test 1 is being printed as test,,1.
I am using READ_TEXT to read the text and in that itself I am getting the above format of ',,'.
Please suggest a way it could be printed as Test 1.
Many Thanks!
Parul.

Hi Parul,
In the internal sapscript format the tab is represented as a ',,'. You should use function module CONVERT_ITF_TO_ASCII to convert the data returned by function READ_TEXT.

Issue ith Long text in Quality Notification.

Hi All,
I have an Issue with Quality Notification long text change functionality.User reported that he can only append the additional text and can't edit the alaready entered screen. When I verified the config for the notification type it shows that 'Log line' check box have been checked and "No text" change Check Box Not checked. We need log lind and the same time user can edit the alkready entered screen. We are using Ecc 6.0 system.
Please guide me to fix that Issue.
Regards,
Senthil

Hi,
you should check in configuration the part "Overview of Notification Type" (Quality Management>>Quality Notifications>>Overview of Notification Type).
When you select your notification type you go to "Format Long text" and there you can disable "No text change". This option is useful when you want to add text but don't want to allow modification of existing text.
Hope this help,
Serge

How to show long text in TextView control in formatted form?

Hi,
I have requirement to show long text from backend text edit control to WD application. I am using READ_TEXT Fm to read the long text and passing it to text view UI element.
The text is shown in simply one long line but I want it to show in the same format as stored in backend textedit control.
If I take textedit UI control then it shows the text in formatted form.
Could you please let me know how to achieve these for TextView control? My requirement is that I have to use only TextView control.
Thanks,
Chandra

Hi,
The Problem solved to some extend but still the exact formatting is not happening though i am using cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline.
for eg. if the long text is as below.
"To display the external component, you can now embed an interface view of any window of this component in a window of your current embedding a view of oneu2019s own component. By setting up navigation from one outbound plug of a view of your inbound plug of the inter external component, you enable the external component to be displayed. New line ."
and if in backend the Last line " New line ." is on next line, on WD it is not displayed on next line.
Thanks,
Chandra

Why can I no longer text message on the larger format by turning my phone?

Why can I no longer text message on the larger format by turning my phone on its side?

Hi,
Since iChat 6 the SMS option in the Menus has disappeared.
However if you add the number to a Buddy List as if it were Screen Name but with the leading +1 (as in +1234567890) it will work over AIM.
It only works to US phones on some Carriers.

Using formats of SO10 text in Adobe forms

Hello guys,
I got a question concerning the interaction of SO10 texts with adobe form text fields.
I know there are some threads about it here, and I think I understand the default SAP behavior, but can you please confirm if I am right? Then I got a special question about one case.
So is it right that there is only the difference between formatting the textfield itself in adobe form layout and adding a style to the text field in form context?
This means:
(1) Whenever in my text field in form context no style is added, the adobe form will take the formatting like it is done in the adobe form layout? This would mean that every format which is entered in the SO10 text is insignificant for the adobe form?
(2) Whenever in my text field a style is added, SAP will use SO10 text formats? This means, SAP searches for the smartforms style which is entered in the textfield and uses the formats from SO10 text like they were defined in the smartforms style?
Is this correct so far?
Now the special questions:
(1) What happens if a style is added, but the style does not exist as smartforms style. Which font etc. will be used then?
(2) What happens if a style is added, but the format of SO10 text does not exist in the smartform style?
In both cases it looks like SAP takes some "default" style, but where does it come from?
Thanks a lot!
Regards
Michael

Problem in formatting of long text -- line break not recognized.

Hi ,
We have a PO smartform in our SRM system and we are facing problem with formatting of long text on the smartform for long texts maintained for the PO.
for ex, we maintain the long text as --
"this is long text for item 1.
1. this is line 1.
2. this is line 2."
On the smartform it is displayed as --
this is long text for item 1. 1. this is line 1. 2. this is line 2.
So basically, the line breaks in the text are not considered in the smartform .
Any suggestions on how to fix this issue ??
Thanks.

Hello Harmeet,
Which Std. FM are you using to fetch the PO texts? If the PO doesn't exist in your system, i'm afraid you cannot use Include Texts as mentioned by Harsh.
As an alternative you'll have to create a table & pass the text lines to it! I don't think SmartForms are not smart enough to identify new-line character.

Using BSP text editor for long text formatting

Hello,
We are using CRM 7.0. We want to perform simple formatting for the long texts (bold, fonts etc.) We are considering to use thtmlbx <btf:btf> element for text editing. The question is how is it possible to save the formatted text as the long text? Is there any standard way to perform it?
Thanks in advance,
Sergey

Hello,
In the CRM system there are standard views that display long texts connected to the objects. They are stored in the standard tables and not in the ztables. I just want to enable formatting for this text, to store it formatted in the system and next time the user opens the object to show him the formatted text.
Thanks in advance,
Sergey

Using paragraph format for long text...

Hello,
When I try to print the long text using include then
it starts printing from the very first line.
But I want to use some paragraph format for it. How can I use it because I am using
/: INCLUDE '200007200000100' OBJECT AUFK ID KOPF
So where do I mention the paragraph format in the tag column becaue I am already using /: controll command in font of the include ?

Check this thread...
SAPScript - Standard Text
It looks like the PARAGRAPH P2 statement can do that declaration, on the subsequent line.
This website also has some good examples:

Char. formats(Bold, Underline) in Long text editor not visible in ABAP WD

Hi ABAP experts,
Problem:
I have created long text with using bold and under line formats in long text editor (FM TEXT_ EDIT). I am trying to show same text in WebDynpro using READ_TEXT FM. But FM READ_TEXT is getting long text with HTML tags as shown below for bold and underline and it long text showed as same in WebDynpro application with HTML tags.
Long text shown in webdynpro:
Type your message using the form below. When finished, you can
optionally preview your post by clicking on the <H>"Preview"</> tab.
Otherwise, click the <U><H>"Post Message"</></> button to submit your
message immediately.
Is there any function module available to change format and pass to WebDynpro context?
Thanks
Rajesh Yadla

The normal text editor in Web Dynpro won't handle HTML tags (they get safe encoded as you described). In NetWeaver 7.01 we do introduce a FormattedTextEditor that allows for such formatting. There are APIs to convert from SAPScript based texts to the XHTML FormattedText tags.
