How to print adobe form immediately without preview?

Hi, Experts.
I made a WD4A using Interactive Form control
and the app is working fine and displays Adobe Form.
But I meet a new client needs on how to print immediately without display the form.
My client says that "I don't wanna see the form and just print form immediately when I click the print button".
I think there are some option parameters for solving those problem...
Plz. Help.
Regards Junha.

Hello Junha,
you need to send the pdf to spool. There's a function module for it as far as I know. Can't remember the
name at the moment and having no access to a SAP system. A good way to find it would be searching
for SPOOL and PDF in the name.
Best regards,
Thomas

How to print Adobe Forms without the black/gray backgrounds in the side columns

How can we print Adobe Forms without the black/gray backgrounds in the side columns? We are wasting a lot of ink printing out these forms and would like to have simply black ilnes to distinguish columns and black lettering, but no background colors. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I am not positive what you are printing from but I am thinking it is from the View Responses tab with a response row selected and then shown in "Detail View" and that the column of field names has a dark grey background...
To change the color of the column headers select the row of headers (do this by clicking on the first dark grey header field and then scroll to the last one and shift+click on the last one), then in the "Text" tools change the text color to Black and the Fill color to white:
(Selected the header cells)
Changed the text/font color to black and the fill color to white
Now you can see the detail view does not have the dark grey.
Thanks,
Josh

How to print the report directly without previewing (report viewer) using c# windows application

Hi,
Currently, we are using crystal report to all of our reporting applications, but since I/users have encountered some issues about CR's speed to load only a simple report, maybe it is now time for us to adopt a new reporting environment in which I think SSRS
can fill this problem.
To start with, I have here a sample code, that uses the crystal report to print the report directly without previewing:
csCashInvoiceCal csCashCal; --Crystal report name .rpt
dsCsReceipt dsCs; --created dataset
DataTable u;
DataRow s;
private System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument printDocument1;
private System.Windows.Forms.PrintDialog printDialog1;
ParameterValues paramValue;
ParameterDiscreteValue discreteValue;
ParameterFieldDefinition fieldDefinition;
private void btnPrint_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
this.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor;
loadReceipt2();
print2();
csCashCal.Close();
this.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
private void loadReceipt2()
dsCs = new dsCsReceipt(); --created dataset
u = dsCs.Tables.Add("DtCsReceipt");
u.Columns.Add("Qty", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("UOM", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("Description", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("UnitPrice", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("Discount", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("Amount", Type.GetType("System.String"));
try
for (int i = 0; i < dgvDesc.Rows.Count - 1; i++)
s = u.NewRow(); double.TryParse(dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Discount2.Name].Value.ToString(), out discount);
s["Qty"] = double.Parse(dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Qty.Name].Value.ToString());
s["UOM"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Uom2.Name].Value.ToString();
s["Description"] = invcode + dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Description.Name].Value.ToString();
s["UnitPrice"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[UnitPrice.Name].Value.ToString();
if (discount != 0)
s["Discount"] = "(" + string.Format("{0:0.##}", discount) + "%)";
else
s["Discount"] = "";
s["Amount"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Amount2.Name].Value.ToString();
u.Rows.Add(s);
catch (Exception) { }
csCashCal = new csCashInvoiceCal();
csCashCal.SetDataSource(dsCs.Tables[1]);
//csCashCal.Refresh();
loadParameter2();
private void loadParameter2()
ParameterFieldDefinitions paramFieldDefinitions;
paramValue = new ParameterValues();
discreteValue = new ParameterDiscreteValue();
paramFieldDefinitions = csCashCal.DataDefinition.ParameterFields;
discreteValue.Value = date;
fieldDefinition = paramFieldDefinitions["Date"];
commonParam();
discreteValue.Value = txtcsno.Text;
fieldDefinition = paramFieldDefinitions["InvoiceNo"];
commonParam();
discreteValue.Value = txtNameTo.Text;
fieldDefinition = paramFieldDefinitions["CustomerName"];
commonParam();
discreteValue.Value = txtAdd.Text;
fieldDefinition = paramFieldDefinitions["CustomerAddress"];
commonParam();
------other parameters----
private void commonParam()
paramValue.Clear();
paramValue.Add(discreteValue);
fieldDefinition.ApplyCurrentValues(paramValue);
private void print2()
using (printDocument1 = new System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument())
using (this.printDialog1 = new PrintDialog())
//this.printDialog1.UseEXDialog = true;
this.printDialog1.Document = this.printDocument1;
DialogResult dr = this.printDialog1.ShowDialog();
if (dr == DialogResult.OK)
int nCopy = this.printDocument1.PrinterSettings.Copies;
int sPage = this.printDocument1.PrinterSettings.FromPage;
int ePage = this.printDocument1.PrinterSettings.ToPage;
string PrinterName = this.printDocument1.PrinterSettings.PrinterName;
try
csCashCal.PrintOptions.PrinterName = PrinterName;
csCashCal.PrintToPrinter(nCopy, false, sPage, ePage);
printcount++;
//saveCountPrint();
catch (Exception err)
MessageBox.Show(err.ToString());
This is only a simple sales receipt application that uses dgv and textboxes to push its data to dataset to the crystal report, a simple one but there are instances that it is very slow.
But I'm having trouble implementing this using SSRS, since I'm only new to this one, wherein I created the report using report wizard, with two button options inside the form for print preview or direct print selection. Actually, it is very easy to implement
with print preview because it uses reportviewer. My problem is that how can I print the report directly without using a reportviewer?
So here is my code so far which I don't know what's next:
private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
this.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor;
loadReceipt3();
//print3();
this.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
ReportParameter[] parameter = new ReportParameter[11];
private void loadParameter3()
parameter[0] = new ReportParameter("InvoiceNo", txtcsno.Text);
parameter[1] = new ReportParameter("Date", date);
parameter[2] = new ReportParameter("CustomerTin", txtTin.Text);
parameter[3] = new ReportParameter("CustomerName", txtNameTo.Text);
parameter[4] = new ReportParameter("CustomerAddress", txtAdd.Text);
parameter[5] = new ReportParameter("Agent", agent);
parameter[6] = new ReportParameter("Discount", "Discount: ");
parameter[7] = new ReportParameter("TotalDiscount", lblDiscount.Text + "%");
parameter[8] = new ReportParameter("TotalSales", rdtotal);
parameter[9] = new ReportParameter("Tax", rdtax);
parameter[10] = new ReportParameter("TotalAmount", rdnet);
private void loadReceipt3()
DataSet dsrs = new DataSet();
DataTable dtrs = new DataTable();
DataRow drs;
dtrs.Columns.Add("Qty", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("UOM", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("Description", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("UnitPrice", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("Discount", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("Amount", Type.GetType("System.String"));
try
for (int i = 0; i < dgvDesc.Rows.Count - 1; i++)
drs = dtrs.NewRow();
drs["Qty"] = double.Parse(dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Qty.Name].Value.ToString());
drs["UOM"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Uom2.Name].Value.ToString();
drs["Description"] = invcode + dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Description.Name].Value.ToString();
drs["UnitPrice"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[UnitPrice.Name].Value.ToString();
if (discount != 0)
drs["Discount"] = "(" + string.Format("{0:0.##}", discount) + "%)";
else
drs["Discount"] = "";
drs["Amount"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Amount2.Name].Value.ToString();
dtrs.Rows.Add(s);
catch (Exception) { }
int addtlRow = 7;
if (addtlRow > (count - 1))
addtlRow = addtlRow - (count - 1);
for (int i = 0; i < addtlRow; i++)
dtrs.Rows.Add();
loadParameter3();
LocalReport localreport = new LocalReport();
localreport.SetParameters(parameter);
localreport.DataSources.Clear();
localreport.DataSources.Add(new ReportDataSource("dsSalesReceiptSsrs", dtrs));
localreport.Refresh();
//what's next....
So what's next after local..refresh()? Actually, I have googled a lot but I didn't found the exact solution that I'm looking for which confuses me a lot.
Anyway I'm using VS 2010 with sql server 2012 express.
You're help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Hardz

After some further studies with ReportViewer controls and with the use of this tutorial @ : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms252091.aspx, which helps me a lot on how to print a report without using a report viewer, I found out what is missing
with my code above and helps solve my question.
Here's the continuation of the code above:

if (dr == DialogResult.OK)
if (!printDoc.PrinterSettings.IsValid)
throw new Exception("Error: cannot find the default printer.");
else
printDoc.PrintPage += new PrintPageEventHandler(PrintPage);
m_currentPageIndex = 0;
printDoc.Print();
Dispose();
public void Dispose()
if (m_streams != null)
foreach (Stream stream in m_streams)
stream.Close();
m_streams = null;
private Stream CreateStream(string name, string fileNameExtension, Encoding encoding, string mimeType, bool willSeek)

Metafile(m_streams[m_currentPageIndex]);
// Adjust rectangular area with printer margins.
Rectangle adjustedRect = new Rectangle(

How to print Adobe form in different languages.....

HI ,
I made one Adobe print form in EN language. Now the client requirement is that want to print in Chinese language also or in any other langauge . Please tell me how tio do that. I am looking for a valuable solutions.
Vishwjeet

Hi Manoj,
Does the requirement is to translate text in different language without any modification in the layout or do you need to make modification on layout depending on language ?
If you only need to translate text, use SMARTOFRMS and SAPSCRIPT text in your form and add a Language parameter in the interface . then in the layout use the text in the language value given by "Language Parameter" . With this way you don't have to connect in each language to activate the form .
If you need to make modification on layout, you need to conect to SAP in required language and then modify the form .
Hope this help , if you need i can send you a sample form for the first solution.
Regards.

How to configure adobe forms in OMLV for printing picking slip

Hello,
I want to configure a adobe form in OMLV transaction. But there is no column for putting adobe forms.
Can you tell me how do configure adobe forms for getting it printed from standard transaction whenever a transfer order is created.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Ajay,
You are completely right that you cannot find anything with smartform in the customizing (OMLV). The reason for it: It is not there. It not even exists. Also the latest version of rlvsdr40 has nothing standard concerning smartforms.
I do not know why it is really necessary to use adobe or smartforms.
The only way is to build a new one (ZRLVSDR40). In that new one you have to use the sapscriptname (from OMLV)and treat it as a smartform- name.
I hope my explanation helps. Success.

How to save Pdf form localy without internet

How to save Pdf form localy without internet?
I thought in the beginning about advanced user rights and pure saving them on adobe reader but i saw legal notes about 500 user who can legaly save it localy and answer to me (bu they can`t answer to my client who paid me for doing this form).
Other thing is to do Air Application which would collect data from Pdf Form and save it (localy without internet) to use it later.
I thought about that second possibility but i can`t find any clue to do it myself.
Any help will be appreciated...

Hi,
Are you downloading responses as PDF forms after forms are submitted? If so, FormsCentral doesn't provide an option to exclude empty fields and you won't be able to save PDF forms without empty fields.
You can use this form to "vote" on popular feature requests, or to add a new one of your own:

Here , the funtion module name is coming correctly.
But when calling function CALL FUNCTION 'FP_JOB_OPEN' ,
It is giving sy-subrc = 2 , i.e. usage error (An Exception).
Similarily , due to this i am getting same exception in
CALL FUNCTION lv_fm_name
So some one please help me , what should i do ,
am i supposed to pass some other parameter in CALL FUNCTION 'FP_JOB_OPEN'
Hopefully , waiting for responds.
Thanks & Regards;
Gaurav Singh

HI Sikka,
Thanx for the reply ,
With your solution CALL FUNCTION 'FP_JOB_OPEN' is done.
but the same problem is still happening with
CALL FUNCTION lv_fm_name and it is giving sy-subrc = 2.
i.e.   system_error             = 2
Thanx !!!

How openning of adobe forms could be faster at Enterprise portal 7.0

I wander how openning of adobe forms could be faster at Enterprise portal 7.0. We are using for ESS/MSS functionality.
I found out that firs time an form is opened it takes longer than next times. Has anyone some good documentation
Than you in advance

> I wander how openning of adobe forms could be faster at Enterprise portal 7.0. We are using for ESS/MSS functionality.

I would say that this is caused by the Adobe Reader on the PC, not by the portal itself.

How to integrate adobe forms using webdynpro-abap

Hi All,
How to integarte adobe forms with webdynpro -abap(se80).
Thanks & Regards
Suman

Hi suman,
First you have insert a element interactive form in the view.
In the properties of the interactive form you have properties called datasource and pdfsource.
You have to give the data which you want to display in the datasource throught binding.
These data you have to get it from the context. For pdfsource it should be xstring.
There is one more property called templatesource, when you give a name and double click. It automatically goes to SFP and you can create the form of your purpose. While creating it will ask for context. That context will be the same which you have declared in the view or component controller.
Regards,
Arun.
