Hi Krishna,
maybe you could play with include text, and read it by yourself with the function SSFRT_READ_INCLUDE_TEXT. With this function you could set the language you would like to read ..

Multi-language support forms 6i

I need to translate existing forms 6i forms (English) to fench and spanish to support multi-language.
i am the first time user, please suggest the technique to tranaslate.
Thanks

you have two solutions either to:
1. make the forms again with new labels with the required language (but this way i don't prefer)
2. make 2 tables in your database one contains the languages and the other contains all the labels with unique id
and these two tables have relationship
make dialog canvas at the start of your application to let the user choose the language required.
according to his chosen call or load the labels infront of every item in the canvas.

How to display Smart form in Multiple Languages ?

Hello,
Very Good evening!
How can I print the Smart Form in Multiple Languages like Korea, German and Japneese....
I got a requirement where I need to display the developed Smart form in these languages. As of now it is displayed only in the Language ENGLISH.
Any Suggestions will be appreciated!
Regards,
Kittu

Hello kittu....
I would recommend that you create a single Smart Form in the primary supported language (or the one which you're most comfortable maintaining forms). Embed all necessary logic in this form, and design it with the idea that it would need to be viewable in multiple languages .
Then use transaction SE63 to translate all necessary form components into each desired language -- one by one -- and they will all be bound together under the same form name. In my experience, a basic multi-column spreadsheet (put together with the guidance of professional translators) works well as a translation guide.
The advantages of a single, shared form include: consistent look and feel, avoiding dual maintenance for shared logic (or, in your case, up to 10x maintenance), and simplified output determination. On the other hand, a single form does constrain your design and can make for a more complex implementation.
Hope this is useful
Best of luck,
Bhumika

Multi-language support for user-specified text strings used in the forms

multi-language support for user-specified text strings used in the forms
Instead of creating multiple forms, 1 in each different language, for the same service, is there any workaround?

Hoan - is your question what are the considerations when creating multiligual catalogs? If so, I can tell you that at other clients I have seen them use a single catalog for one or two languages. For the two langugages, such as Spanish/English, you can create a single catalog with both of them. Once you get to more than two languages, the catalog would get unweildy and is therefore not suggested.

hi! Jagadesh
1. Create two different Smartforms
2. In Form Atributes Option -->General Attributes -->Language Tab -- there is a Optiona to select a Particular Language.( To select Language) there <b>select the EN</b> for 1st optin and <b>ES for Spanish</b>, Normally it will be in To all Language.
3. Create a report with Radiobutton (bz Check Box have an attributes to check both the Options)
   when option1 = 'EN'.
        call form1 with EN language
when option2 = 'ES'.
       call forms 2 with ES Language.
Reward me if its useful.

Need inputs : PO Smart form Bulgaria language in SRM

Hi Experts,
I need a couple of suggestions and guide lines for PO print out Smart form.
We have requirement for PO, print out should print in Bulgaria language if the PO Vendors is from Bulgaria country.
And if the vendor is other than Bulgaria country then it should print in the English.
We have already a custom smart form (English)which we have assigned it in BADI for the PO Print output BBP_OUTPUT_CHANGE_SF.
Do we have to create 2 different smart forms? One is for Bulgaria vendors and other for non Bulgaria vendors.
And Do need to assign the 2 different smart forms in BADI based up on the vendor country?
If I enter the fixed text (like labels) in Bulgarian language then it will automatically will print in Bulgarian language?
And what I have to do dynamic text (which I will read from the print program input data or data base tables) ? Is there any way for the translation for these dynamic texts?
And I tried to put some labels in Bulgarian language in the smart form, but I am not able to see in those characters in the print preview in the portal. Its showing as some junk characters asu201D#u201D. But I am able to see in Spool (GUI, SP01). Is it because of the Bulgaria Language pack is not there in my system
looking for your valuable inputs.
Thank you ,
Bharathi.

Ok here´s how it works:
In standard logic the output type gets drawn in communication language of supplier.
so for a bulgarian supplier, with communication language Bulgarian the output type will get drawn in bulgarian.
This means the bulgarian form will get processed and in the form text will be drawn in bulgarian language as well if you stayed with standard logic and draw texts with NAST-SPRAS.
in your print program in the entry routine, not any entry routine but the one which is customized in TNAPR for this output type, place following coding:
if nast-spras NE 'BG'.
nast-spras = 'EN'.
endif.
that should do the whole job.
and NO you have absoluteley NO chance to handle this in the form.
If you arrived in the form you are already in a certain language and it too late to do what you want to.

Converting smart forms as a pdf in different languages

Hi Experts,
I have been created a smart form and later on i converted it to in pdf also, but how can i convert a smart form output into different languages (English(defualt), German, Italian, French, Spanish,). Can anyone tell me about the idea behind this or a simple demo program???????????
do i need to maintain each text on the smart form into these languages already through SE63 or somewhere any idea that can help me without translating the whole text into those languages, could be able to do pdf conversion.
Thanks and Regards,
Shakun

The OTF data needs to already be in the target language - the conversion process is a process of changing the document format only, not a translation tool.

Output in Customer Language for Service Dispatch Note Smart form

We have upgraded from ECC 5.0 to ECC 6.0.
After the upgrade we are facing an issue in some of our Service related smart forms.
The version of the driver program is same in both the systems and the smart form is also same.
The customer's language is maintained in Customer Master data.
In the un-upgraded system, the forms were printed in the Customer language according to what is maintained in the customer master data.
But after the upgrade, in the new system, the form is being printed in English as opposed to the Customer language in the older system.
As I have already mentioned above, in both the systems, the driver program, smart form and Customer Language in the customer master data are similar.
Kindly suggest me the solution if anyone has faced a similar problem.

Hi, Actually I have checked in debugging and have come to know that during the upgrade, when I have downloaded the form from ECC 5.0 and uploaded it to ECC6.0, the Language option in the general attributes tab of the text modules is blank and hence the form is displayed in English only.
Is there any way that I can get the smartform uploaded as it is in the earlier system?

Smart Form Language Print Problem

Hi ,
i want to ask that in PO smart form if i am taking print preview. then vendor & Shipping Address are not coming in print preview...another fields are coming like tele & Fax No these are store in numeric value but these name1 and street store in taiwan Lang..
then data fetch from ARDC table but ARDC-name1 and ADRC-street store data in taiwan lang..so these two fields data is not displaying in taiwan lang during print preview but some other format is displaying like squrae shape.....
so plz send me solution...ASAP...
Thanks
Amit Nigam

Hi,
Pick up the Address using user log on language instead of adrc-spras Or the language which user wants to display on the form.
Alternatively u can also code the driver program in such a way so that, if the the sy-langu is EN pick the address in EN or pick the address in Taiwan language.
ADRC-Nation is set in such case.
Another solution is the master data for the vendor has to be first maintained in English and then international versions have to be maintained in various languages.
Thanks,
Rashmi

Multi language support for Adobe interactive form

Hi ,
I translated the adobe form in multi language in SE63, If i execute the form with passing LANGU(language) parameter, form supports for multi language.
I created XML schema based interface and if a execute interactive form in Webdynpro, i am unable to pass launguage(LANGU) parameter. because InteractiveForm element property does not have language key parameter.
Apart from creating different language dependent forms, is there any alternate way we can pass the LANGU key parameter to Interactive Adobe form???

Hi Thomas
Let me share my few more investigation on the same, I chaged form each element property to login language.
and translated form to other languages. If directly execute form in sfp with loging in different language i am getting right result. it means even no need to pass the LANGU parameter.
But same thing if i execute from Webdynpro i am getting default 'EN' language form, even though i login in 'DE' language.

Hi,
As far as i know when you use Adobe forms in a WD4A application, language is your "web" connection language.
You can have a look at standard class CL_WD_ADOBE_SERVICE, it's used when generating an adobe forms from WD4A. , more particulary look at method DETERMINE_DOCPARAMS.

Smart forms in different languages

Hi all,
i have an issue
I hav to convert my smart form in 8 different languages.
i know se63 but i dont want to use it as i have to maintain texts manually in different languages in se63.
is there any FM or code with which i can convert my smart form in different languages.
my smart form is originally made in EN language n i hav to convert it to german , italian , french , spanish etc.
please tell me any SAP note no that would be really helpful.

Hello,
if you do to want to use se63, you have 2 way:
1. use modul text ( see Transaction smartforms, 3°option on the screen)
2. Use a standard text (so10 transaction)
I mean that on smartforms you have to use only this 2 kind of text and, of corse, translate it.
