How to print PDF files directly from SAP?

We have created output that is being saved in a PDF format. We can store it on any drive or send it through email. However, we would like to be able to print a PDF file directIy without any manual intervention. Now users still have to open the file and hit the print button and we want to avoid this. So basically we want to be able to create e.g. a sales order, generate an order confirmation in PDF format and send it directly to the output device that we stored in output master data. I have a feeling it is not possible to print directly because output device has to be like a PDF1 to create the PDF file itself and there is no space left somewhere to store the physical output device. We use ECC 5.
kind regards

How do I remove the background from a movie / sound problems

Apologies, not really sure what I’m doing…
How do I remove the background from a movie I made?
I imported a QT movie at 368/272 pixels, but for whatever
reason the HTML jumps up to 550/400.
The movie is still 368/272 but there is a background border
making it 550/400. Tried all sorts of settings in Publish but
can’t get rid of it. Can I keep the movie (and controller)
and not the background?
I can get round it by changing the background colour, but
surely there must be another way.
Also: My QT file was fine but the .flv has a stuttering
sound, any idea what could cause that?
Thanks, and Thanks!

If you want to remove a background and add a new one Photoshop Element for Mac makes it rather easy to do:

How to print " Duplicate " in FORM ( either Sap Script or Smart Forms )

hi,
How to print " Duplicate " in FORM ( either Sap Script or Smart Forms ) if trying to take second Print Out and the FORM is already Printed.
Please let me know the condition that we should go for.If possible let me know the SAMPLE code since this will be used in most of the FORMS.

Hi
It depends on which print you're working.
If it's a print of standard document you can check the NAST (VSTAT field) table in order to know if the document was printed.
If a message is created you can find the hit in NAST table:
VSTAT = 0, document not printed;
VSTAT = 1, documment printed
VSTAT = 2, print is failed
If you mean a custom print I believe you need to create a log like NAST table.

Tough Ask..
Because i have done dashboarding thru scritping (Dyanamic fashion tough) ..It is very good ..But when, coming to the one you asked i have the idea how it works but cannot really tell you wich would be better.
Each Route has its own limitations.That really depends on what exaclty your client is looking after..
So if you new to xcelsius and eager to learn ..I suggest you to give a go at all those..May be you can let me know wich is the best one..
1. QAWS,
2. Bex Query --> Crystal Reports --> Live office --> DashBoard.
3. Bex Query --> WebI --> Live Office --> Dashboard..
4. Webservices consuming BI Query,
5. Xcelsius SAP Netwever Connector.
But i suggest as of now use Xcelsius SAP netweaver Connnection...

Generating PDF form16's from SAP HR system

Hi,
I have to explore the possibility of generating PDF form16's from SAP HR system. My clinet is currently using SAP ECC6.0 version.
Please let me know if any one has any idea on the same.
Thank you.

Hello buddies,
Is there a *new note released to take care of F4 help on the main screen of Form 16?
We have applied all the required notes, however, when we are testing the Form 16, we are unable to upload the temse file for data on Page 3 of Form 16. This is because there is no F4 help on the main screen.
Please someone help as this is a very important requirement from the client side and we are stuck with the testing.
Thanks in advance.

How to print PDF files using java print API

Hi,
I was goign throw lot of discusion and reading lot of forums related to print pdf files using java api. but nothing seems to be working for me. Can any one tell me how to print pdf files using java api.
Thanks in advance

Mike,
Can't seem to get hold of the example described in your reply below. If you could let us have the URL to get then it would be great.
My GUI application creates a pdf document which I need to print. I want to achieve this using the standard Java class PrinterJob (no 3rd party APIs I'm afraid, commercial restraints etc ..). I had a stab at it using the following code. When executed I get the pretty printer dialog then when I click ok to print, nothing happens!
boolean showPrintDialog=true;
PrinterJob printJob = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob ();
printJob.setJobName ("Contract.pdf");
try {
if (showPrintDialog) {
if (printJob.printDialog()) {
printJob.print();
else
printJob.print ();
} catch (Exception PrintException) {
PrintException.printStackTrace();
Thank you and a happy new year.
Cheers,
Chris
