Generate PDF and Change printer command

Hello All,
Please, I need to generate a PDF file from a spool number, I'm trying to use the function 'CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF', but it isn't working properly.
Somebody has a example code?
I need to change the printer button command and change the command of printer menu, for generate a PDF file directly when the user click in printer button or acess printer menu (Ctrl+P)...
I need to know how to generate this PDF file.
For example, the user generate the report normaly and after that if it clicks on printer button o select printer command on menu, this report will be converted in a PDF file.
Somebody could help me please?
Or somebody has a example code?
Thank you in advance for your colaboration.
Fernando Pena.

How do I generate PDF and CHM files from the a command line in windows?

I am trying to set up a PC to build some documents during the night. I was looking for a way to get framemaker to generate PDF and CHM files via a command line in windows? How is this done with FrameMaker 12
Thanks for the help
Alex

Hi,
The part with generate a PDF via a jsx seems to work OK, except when FrameMaker decides that it will not work anymore. I must say I am not impressed with the stabillity of FrameMaker 12, there is room for a lot of improvement!.
I have given up on how to figure out how to get FrameMaker 12 to generate chm files via jsx scripts, any pointes are still very welcome.
The route I have taken is I make a RoboHelp project for each chm files I need to generate. The only thing this RoboHelp project contains is a link to the actual FrameMaker project I want to generate a chm file.
To make the chm I start RoboHelp with a script that
1) Opens the desired project
2) Sets the desired output chm files name
3) Generates the chm file
4) And finally quits RoboHelp
Below is a copy of the jsx in case anyone can reuse anything. And yes parameters are transfered via enviroments variable. I have later learned there is some way to read the parameters given at a command line but this seems to work so I stick to this for now.
// Get parameters
var RhProjName = $.getenv("RH_PROJ_NAME");
var RhChmName = $.getenv("RH_CHM_NAME");
var RhLogFileName = $.getenv("RH_LOGFILE_NAME");
var RhLogFile = new File(RhLogFileName);
RhLogFile.open("w", "TEXT");
RhLogFile.writeln("RH_PROJ_NAME : ", RhProjName);
RhLogFile.writeln("RH_CHM_NAME : ", RhChmName);
doc = RoboHelp.openProject (RhProjName, 1);
var sslmngr = RoboHelp.project.SSLManager;
for(var i = 1; i<=sslmngr.count; i++){
var ssl = sslmngr.item(i);
if(ssl.name == 'Microsoft HTML Help') {
    // Set the output location and file name
    ssl.setSpecificProperty("DestinationProjectName", RhChmName);
    if (doc.saveAll(true) ) {
      RhLogFile.writeln("saveAll returned TRUE");
    } else {
      RhLogFile.writeln("saveAll returned FALSE");
    if ( ssl.generate() ) {
      RhLogFile.writeln("ssl.generate returned TRUE");
    } else {
      RhLogFile.writeln("ssl.generate returned FALSE");
} else {
    // alert ("Found " + ssl.name + " dont do anything");
doc.saveAll(true);
RhLogFile.close();
RoboHelp.closeProject();
RoboHelp.quit();

Generate pdf and html(urgent)

can anybody tell how to generate pdf and html from a single report,
thanks in adv

From a single report, you can generate outputs to html, htmlcss, pdf, rtf, XML and text formats.
If you use rwclient, rwrun or rwservlet methods, specify desformat=pdf/html and the destination file name in desname command line parameters.
If you use Reports Builder, open a report, select File->Generate to file and select html/pdf. Then give the file name.
For more details, Refer to Reports Tutorial / Publishing Reports document from this site.

Error trying to print report to both pdf and network printer

Hi all,
When trying to print a report to my network printer or to pdf I get the two errors attached, one right after the other. The resulting pdf or hard copy has almost everything in it, except for three tables which are completely missing. When I go back into the report and open the page with the missing table, the table is no longer visible in the report and I get the second error again. Exiting and restarting diadem brings the tables back.
I've found several threads about pdf and other print errors and tried the solutions there to no avail; specifically the one posted here.
I hope there is a fix to this! These reports are intended to sell management on diadem! Thanks!

Hello testingHotAir,
Just to make sure, do you have administrative privileges for this machine?
Also, you have attempted these exact steps as posted by lerman?
Make sure that you are logged in as Windows administrator.
Click the Windows button and click Printers.
Right-click the Diadem pdf Export and select Properties
Click the Ports tab, then click the Add Port button.
Note: If the Ports tab is greyed out, right-click the Diadem Pdf Export icon and select Run as admin.
Select Local Port and click the New Port button.
Enter PDF1 for the new port name and click OK. Close the Printer Ports window.
Put a checkmark in the box next to the PDF1 port if it is not already checked.
Click on the Advanced tab.
Select the Spool print documents radio button to make the options below it clickable.
Clear (uncheck) the box labeled Enable advanced printing features by clicking it.
Select the Print directly to printer radio button to make the options below not clickable.
Click the Apply button, then click OK.
Important: In order for the changes to take effect, you must restart your computer.
Reboot your computer and then try to print, email, or create a pdf from Diadem.

Why do we have to install 2 add ins for something that should be built in? Please add this to the next version or an update to this one even. We should see the full path of a bookmark when we search for it. Show Parent Folder alone isn't enough if you have sub folders, so I installed Go Parent Folder as well in case of sub folders.

Gray box around images in PDF and when printing? Why?

Hi,
I'm using CS5 and I'm getting a gray box around any image embedded in my document. The box comes if I click on it when a PDF and it prints around them. I can't seem to figure this one out. I'm not used to prepping files for print and I'm trying to send this out to someone who needs to print it.
It's CMYK.
I've tried to flatten transparency using both vector and rasterize.
I've made sure the images are embedded.
I can't figure this out!!
Please, help.
Thanks.

does this look like your problem?

Adobe Reader 8.1.2 : can not change Printer Command

Hello all,
I encounter the following problem with Acrobat Reader 8.1.2, installed on Debian GNU/Linux, trying to print :
When I choose a printer (within the list given by a CUPS server) I can not change the Printer Command which prevents me from printing : the default printing options (-o InputSlot -o PageSize ...) are not compliant with my LPRng printing system.
Note that I was able to do it with 7.0.5 and 8.1.1 versions.
Would you please help me to resolve this problem ?
Regards,
Jean-Noel BOUVIER

Hello Jean-Noel,
The print command text box (in the Printer properties dialog) has been made read-only to avoid confusion and discrepancies with the drop-downs available to modify the options.
If you want a particular print command to be used you could try out the Custom printing option. The command typed there is remembered between different sessions of the Reader.
Hope this helps.
Sincerely,
Neha

Does anyone know if you can download a PDF Printer that converts all microsoft office files to pdf format via a print command. The PDF Wizard fromPDF Suite does this but it costs 40 US Dollars?

Hi Justin,
You can purchase a Create PDF subscription and use the Create PDF desktop pinter which can be downloaded once you are a paying subscriber. The subscription costs $9.99 per month and you can end your subscription at anytime. Learn about this service.

Dynamic CRM 2013 Online how to execute Report, generate PDF and email

Dear All,
I am using Dynamic CRM 2013 online. For quote, I have workflow and Dialogue processes for review process. On approval, I want the system to generate a PDF of quote report, attach the PDF and email it to the Customer.
Better I would like, When approver, clicks on the approve button, the system should auto generate a PDF of quote report, attach the PDF and email it to the Customer, without any further input from the user. If its not possible, I may have to put button on
quote form.
I am using the attached code, but facing various issues.
1. Under prepare the SOAP Message coding part, I am not sure what should be the below URL for CRM 2013 Online?
xHReq.Open("POST", "/mscrmservices/2007/CrmService.asmx", false);
2. What should be the emailid here? Is it Recepient Contact id(Guid) ?
var emailid = resultXml.selectSingleNode("//CreateResult").nodeTypedValue;
alert("emailid" + emailid.toString());
3. Using this code, not able to create Entity for "ActivityMimeAttachment", I am getting newEntity as undefined.
Below is the code I am using. Please check and help me out, where I am going wrong. Let me know if any better way to implement it. At present, I have put one button on quote form, on click event, below code will get executed.

CRM ONLINE 2013: On Approval Of Quotation, Run Report, Generate PDF and Send an Email With PDF as attachment

Hi,
I am using CRM ONLINE 2013.
How to automate below process?
1. On Approval Of Quotation, Run Report.
2. Generate PDF.
3. Send an Email With PDF as attachment.
As i have gone through many forums for this topic, but creating a plugin code for generating Report PDF is not possible in CRM ONLINE.
So, What is the alternate way to do this..?
Thanks.

This is my entire code mentioned below:-

Re: Regarding Print Problem in ALV
Regards,
Shamma

Why do files (UPS labels) from the Internet not print properly (they used to), unless they're saved as PDFs and then printed?

Files from the Internet (for example a UPS label) no longer print properly (too light, faded out), whereas they used to print just fine directly from the Internet source. The only way they print properly now is to save the file as a PDF and print from that. So I'm think it's not the Canon printer. This hasn't happened before, and I'd like to know what I can do about it, what's going on. This is via Firefox and Safari on my Mac laptop, OS 10.6.8.
Thanks, David Smoak

2) Thanks for the tip. It isn't what I had in mind, but writing scripts to do the work (via tells to "System Events") and then invoking those scripts with osascript is indeed a reasonable solution.
3) You may not have understood me. The only peculiarity is that I sometimes see "Enable Folder Actions" in the menu even when Folder Actions are, in fact, globally enabled, so that I should instead be seeing "Disable Folder Actions" along with "Remove a Folder Action" and so forth. As you say, I always see "Configure Folder Actions...". Surely this is just a minor bug.
As far as the main issue, I don't believe I have any code that activates the Finder. My original message has a sample of one of my scripts, and you can see that it doesn't mention the Finder at all. As I said, I get the same behavior with the sample Folder Action scripts in /Library. As one more test, I tried a absolutely empty script---the Script Editor window contains not a single glyph when I save it. If I attach this completely empty script as a Folder Action to a folder, any addition or deletion from that folder activates the Finder, though nothing else happens. Still looking for help on this one!

No "convert to pdf " and no " print to pdf " option after install

I installed adobe acrobat reader professional 8 at home ( WIN 7 ) and everything works great there, but after installing it at work ( WIN 7 ) i have no option when i right click a file in the drop down menu that says " convert to adobe pdf ", and also in word i have no option to " Print to PDF " in the printer menu.
Thoses options are on my home PC but not work PC ? the only thing i can think of is a USER RESTRICTION that is in place that does not give my user account the option to use thoses two options ?
Im I wrong ? and if so how can i get thoses options at work like i have at home ?
TY for any help giving

First, you either have Adobe Acrobat Pro 8 Or Adobe Reader 8. Acrobat Reader Professional 8 does not exist.
If you have Acrobat, we'll try and work this out. If you have Reader, you don't get either of those items since it's made for viewing/printing PDF's.
My suggestion is to open the application you installed then go to the Help dropdown and see whether it says Acrobat or Reader. Also, be sure you don't have both products installed since that could cause similar issues as this.
