How create new font in sap

Hi,
We want use Times roman in our smart form.
i tried to load the fonts using spad and se73.
still it is not reflecting in the report.
regards,
viren.

Hi,
Apart from SE73 i think that you have to create a new print control, which will probably contain the name of the font in hexadecimal code. I am not very sure of that but you can find the following SAP note a bit helpful...
SAP Note Number: 12462
How can I define a new printer font?Version: 7, Note Language: EN, Released on: 28.08.1998
Symptom
Key word: Printer font
What settings have to be made to define a new font for an R/3 device type (that is, a new printer font) that can be used for SAPscript documentation output.
Additional key words
Printer, font, printer font, device type, fontmetrics, AFM file, SE73
Cause and prerequisites
You would like to use a new font on the printer.
Solution
General advice:
1. This procedure can be used only if the desired font is available on the printer (that is, installed on the printer itself, installed via font cassette, resident in the printer via softfont download or, in case of device type SAPWIN/WIN, installed on the Windows PC) and can be called with a short printer command (max. 29 bytes). This printer command is maintained in the print control.
Solution procedure:
1. The original SAP printer type used previously must be copied to a customer printer type with a name starting with Z... (see Note 3166 for reasoning behind this). The function "Utilities->Copy device type" from transaction SPAD (spool administration) is used for this.
Example: HPLJIIID is copied to ZHPLJ3.
2. A new print control SFxxx must be maintained for device type Z.... It contains in most cases the printer control commands for setting the desired font. To find out what this printer command looks like, refer to the printer manual and the print controls SFxxx already contained in printer definition Z... . A certain amount of knowledge of the printer language is a prerequisite. The xxx numbering of the SFxxx print controls is arbitrary.
NOTE: The exact contents of the SFxxx print controls depend on the SAPscript printer driver used. For information on this, consult the CD documentation ("Basis system administration printer handbook") and the field documentation (F1 help) for input field "Print control" in SE73, Printer font maintenance.
Printer driver HPL2 (PCL 5 printer):
SFxxx must contain the PCL 5 command for character set and print selection. CAUTION: As of Release 4.0A there are special rules which apply if the flag "Scalable font" is activated.
Printer driver POST (Post script printer):
SFxxx must contain the name of the Post script font, for example "Helvetica"
Printer driver PRES (Kyocera PRESCRIBE printer):
SFxxx must contain the PRESCRIBE command "FONT xx:" for font selection, for example "FONT 42;"
Printer driver SWIN (Windows print via SAPWIN/SAP1pd):
SFxxx must contain the Windows font name. CAUTION: As of Release 4.0A special rules apply if the flag "Scalable font" is activated for the printer font.
Printer driver STN2 (Target printer):
SFxxx must contain the complete command for the selection of the
character set, the increment, bold and italic print and font.
Print control SFxxx is defined for device type Z... in transaction SPAD under the heading "Print control for device type". Example: print control SF900 for device type ZHPLJ3 with replacement text (i.e. printer command)
1B28304E1B28733070313068313276307330623354 is created.
3. In the SAPscript font maintenance transaction SE73 under "Printer fonts", a new entry must be made for the desired font on the desired device type. The following information must be given:
 device type Z...
(printer type to which the font belongs)
 family ....
(Font name used in R/3, for example COURIER, HELVE, LETGOTH, LNPRINT, TIMES)
 size ...
(Font size 1/10 point, for example 240, for printer drivers that support scalable fonts, 000 is entered here)
 bold .
(X if bold type, otherwise blank)
 italic .
(X if italic type, otherwise blank)
 CPI ..,..
(number of characters per inch (CPI)
If font is not a proportional font (for example HELVE,TIMES),
for example 05.00)
 PrtCtl 1 SFxxx
(Refer to field documentation (F1 Document) for exact meaning. The name of the 2nd created printer control is normally entered here.
 PrtCtl 2 SFxxx
Refer to field documentation (F1 document) for exact meaning. The name of the 2nd created printer control is normally entered here.
If the font is a proportional font (HELVE or TIMES), an AFM file that contains the width values for the individual characters in the font must be entered under "Printer fonts" in SE73. Direct maintenance of the AFM data is done from the list of printer fonts with Menu "Edit -> fontmetric using a menu function. To do this you place the cursor on the line with the newly created printer font and choose "Edit->Copy fontmetrics" on the menu. If you have created, for example, a new printer font
ZHPLJ3 HELVE 200 _ _
you can copy the metric of
ZHPLJ3 HELVE 160 _ _
here.
Releases before 3.0A do not have this menu function, and you must manually copy the AFM files from the group box to the new printer font via the XX.XX function in the AFM editor. Then the new AFM files can be checked for correctness (Menu "Fontmetrics ->Check") and saved.
As of Release 3.0 it is possible to establish a link to the fontmetrics of another device type or to a default (all characters with width 500) instead of copying the fontmetrics explicitly. You can check the correctness of the complete font definition in SE73 in the list of printer fonts with the function "Edit->Generate font def.".
4. As a final step, the device type of the output device used must be changed from the SAP original to the new printer definition Z... in transaction SPAD. This is done in SPAD under the heading "Output devices".
Example: printer LP05 previously had device type HPLJIIID and is now being given device type ZHPLJ3.

hi, all!
now, i have one thing to be solved!
i'm using smartforms for developing form program.
i can't find what i want to use new font in sap.
so i added new font to sap using se73 t-code. but some are missing, for example i can't use bold...
so, if anybody have these experience... tell me how to...
best regards,
gy cho.

hi,
For SE73, on screen
There is a button 'True Type-Font Importian'.
On pressing this button you will go to next screen.
Give unique name of font and .ttf file of your computer.
If you select Bold or Italic, select different font file respectivly.
and Execute.
Fonts are centralized for SAP.
if you are not authorized to do cross-client activity, it will not allow you.
Usually Basis Team does this for developers.

How create new draw layer in Spreadsheet View Multisim Symbol Editor ?

Hello,
I would like to know how create new draw layer in Spreadsheet View Multisim Symbol Editor ?
I am interested in this to create a contact or switch with 3 positions (one in and three out).
So ... ??
Best regards

Hi,
I am not really sure what you are trying to do with a new layer but the spreadsheet was hard coded and you cannot add a new layer. In the Symbol Editor, there is a rectangle with dash lines, this is the symbol boundary and you can select Edit>>Resize Boundary Box to make the boundary larger/smaller. Whatever you draw must be inside the boundary, you can only place pins outside the boundary. The switch you created will not toggle in simulation, only the switches in the Master database can do this, R&D have to program them to toggle.

Problem Creating New Client in SAP NW2004s ABAP+JAVA LINUX

Hi,
I installed successfully NW2004s dual stack on linux vmware (SUSE10 enterprise server). This stack give me two client by default, 000 and 001. System gives me default user sap* and password: sapn4sadm
I want to implement the process for BW enabling, and I want to create New Client for it. I have been used SCC4 to create a new client by logging on with the Client 000, but the problem start, when I log-on with the new client.
Client: 002
User: sap*
Password: pass
I have tried system default password of sap* , but that also dosen't help.
It doesn't work, I also try RZ10 to change the value of login/no_automatic_user_sapstar = 0, but I don't find any profile , when I click on the profile field, i get the message "Profile not found". I am not figuring out where I am doing wrong.
How can I success to create a new Client in which i could log on with sap* user. Please Help me
All yours help would be highly rewarded.
Obaid.

In order to edit profiles In RZ10, you must first import them.
Menu: Utilities --> Import Profiles --> Of Active Servers
After this you can add your parameter.
One alternative is to edit the profile directly with vi, restart the system, do all client copy tasks, remove the parameter with vi, restart the system again and then import the active profiles.
the profiles are located in directory
/usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/profile
and the filename is something like this
<SID>_DVEBMGS<instancenr>_<hostname>
