Output device issue in smartform

Hi All,
I have configured smartform and driver program throough nace and testing output . I am facing the problem of alignment of output which is changing depening on Printer. i.e., for printer one the field KOMVD-KBETR(VAT) is prining properly .But if we give another printer or MAIL_PDF as output device then it is moving towards left and alignemnt is wront.
Please let me know if any solution and max points will provided.
Thanks,
J.P

When using SAPscript or SmartForms, HP (PCL based) printers in SAP will generate an extra 1/4 inch or so on the left margin.
Design your form for the specific printer. If multiple printer types will be used, design the form to fit regardless of the margin adjustment.

Output device in SPAD/Smartform

Hi All,
We have a ouput device created through SPAD transaction with a name of 14 characters.
We want to pass the output device name to the Smartform. But the smartform has a parameter of ssfcompop-tdest of only 4 characters.
We do not want to change the output device name from 14 characters to 4 characters.
Is there any alternative to pass the Output device name to smartform without changing the name of output device.
Thanks in advance,
Best regards,
Prashant

Hi prashant,
even you create 14 chars or 20 chars it doesn't matter. but we will pass the short name not the name which you created 14 chars. i guess you might gave <b>short name</b> for your printer in SPAD while creating check it, that you have to pass.

I am not passing tddest (output device) to 'l_s_output_options' as I don't want to print it.
I just want to convert the otf data obtained to pdf and use it for further processing.
Will there be any problem if I don't assign any ouput device.
Please note that in the system ouput device 'LOCL' is not maintained.
Thanks,

Output device option in smartform

Hi,
One more doubt if I give the parameter
l_s_output_options-tdnoprint = 'X'. will it prevent the printing of the form generated or is it just to disable the print button in the pop up.

Am I Lame? Video Output Device issues

It's been a while since we've used Final Cut Express, so we're a little rusty. A lot of it is working fine, but for some reason, it cannot connect to the video output device. I even tried reinstalling final cut express with the camera turned on and plugged into the firewire (I read that somewhere), but it made no difference. I searched these forums and found no reference to "video output device" or "cannot connect". So, any help for me out there?
The stats are - Final Cut Express 4, brand new mini DV camera (becoming obsolete, I know), firewire from the Mac to the camera and video out to the TV. FYI - the camera to the TV is fine...and the camera IS set to "play" mode, as opposed to "record" mode.
The error message mentions that it could either be an issue with the camera connection, OR it might be a conflict with the audio input device. Not sure why that would be, but if anyone has any ideas on how to investigate that further, that might be helpful. We do run Logic 8 and have an Echo soundcard installed with 2 1/4 inputs and 2 1/4 inch outputs. (in case anyone cares).
One last thing - I know I'm theoretically not running a good enough processor, but I don't think that's the issue. Logic 8 has the same requirements and runs great, and FCPExpress doesn't seem to be having any issues in terms of processing power.
Thanks again.
Kat

Yes, I did have that selected...thanks, though. Now, my audio has suddenly stopped working. No idea why. I have tried restarting the program a couple of times (which helped before, when the audio quit working). But now, that's not helping either. I don't know what heppened - All I did before the audio stopped working, was I shut down the computer and the camera and unplugged it all and replugged it and restarted. I did that to try to help the video playthrough problem (which it didn't help) and now I have no audio. ****, this is frustrating. Sigh.
Just FYI - we decided to unplug the camera from the system, since we couldn't get the video to play through to the TV anyhow. When we did that, the audio started working (just on the computer). I guess the playthrough issue was affecting the audio as well. Sigh. Any help is much appreciated.

Sound output device issue - can not choose speakers if phones are plugged in

when I have headphones plugged in, sometimes I dont want to use them for sound, but dont want to disconnect them (I got extra, and iMac is to the wall, hard to take them out without moving whole Mac; so I like having them plugged in constantly)
I dont have the option to choose inbuilt latest iMac speakers when I use ALT+volume icon.
when I alt click sound the only options are
1. headphones, then airplay devices
2. apple tv
3. pioneer VSX 2021K
how can I choose speakers on my iMac when headphones are plugged in?

Hi @tahir77
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that the sound is playing in your earplugs and from the speakers at the same time, and that your system is also not detecting your earphones among the audio devices. I am happy to help.
Firstly, please post the full product number for your notebook. See the following if you need help in finding that.
How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
With that I can find any update drivers for you, but for now you may like to look at this and see if it helps:

hi, i guess you havent defined your printer (i.e) output type.
if you use driver program then when you call your sf just insert the below code.

SmartForms : Printing Non-English characters with SWIN output device?

I have a Japanese Text (entered in Unicode at So10) and I want to print it from my SmartForms application using SWIN device type.
I thought SWIN converted all the components into graphics before sending to printer. To my surprise, the Japanese text printed out as "########".
I even tried duplicate the SWIN output device to another output device and changed the character set to 4103 UTF-16LE Unicode / ISO/IEC 10646 but then the print process hang.
Anyone knows how to overcome the problem so that I can print Japanese with SWin output device?

Default output device for smartform

Hi all
how can we assign a default output device to a smart form so that the every time we execute a smartform it doesnt ask for a output device?
thanks in advance....

Hi
First see what your default out put device is.
That you can see in SU3>Default>OutputDevice.
Suppose it is set as 'PRINTER' .
Then in ur print program you have to write the logic as below.
CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'
    EXPORTING
      FORMNAME           = 'Z_smartform

Issue in output device in communication method (very imp)

HI All,
Please help me to solve this issue,
I have an output type ZAME this output type They they are using for External send .
But in the communication output device they are using as LOCAL, Now user is asking me why the printer is configured as Local for the output type what is the reason,( Local location is Local printer Via SAPLPD on windows client).
Could please help to solve this quiry, whey we have to give printer name local and where exactly this prints.
Regards,
Muralikrishna

Hi
Your question itself has the answer.
You define the printer as Local in communication method. If this is done, the print out will be triggered in the printer which is configured as default printer in the desktop which triggered the transaction.
If the print out has to happen in some other printer, then the printer has to be included in the list of allowed printers in the tcode SPAD. This will be done by the BASIS guys.
Once this is done, you can maintain that printer in communication method. Then irrespective of the default printer, the printout will always happen in the printer maintained in commuincation method.
Hope this helps you.
Reward please, if this helps.

No Output Devices Found and Track Pad Issues

I bought my Macbook Pro in mid-November 2011. Yesterday I noticed that my Macbook did not have any sound and when I checked System Preferences it gave me the dreaded "No output devices found" message. I could hear a start up sound but nothing after I have already logged in to any of my accounts. This is the first time I encountered it and I did some research so I have already done a PRAM reset, permission repair and I even created a new user account to see if I will encounter the same problem. Same thing on the other user account, still no sound. I also found out that the sound would only come out with a USB headset. Headsets with jacks won't work either.
I brought the unit to a service center and they advised me to reinstall OS X Lion and I did. There was sound right after I reinstalled the OS. However, it was gone again when I did a reboot. I also noticed that my track pad won't respond on certain occasions and I have to do a force shutdown by pressing the power button. What could be the problem? I am fearing that this is a hardware issue. I prefer not to have to bring the unit to a service center, wait for a week to get it back then only to encounter the same problem in the future.

Try resetting the PRAM and SMC...
