New Page Format implentation in Sap Scripts and Reports

Hi,
   I want to print Report details and also some of the SAP Script details on the paper size of 350MM width and 310MM Height in the PORTRAIT format.
   So i created new page format with these dimensions.
   How i can use this for reports. So i can set these parameters while taking output from Report.
   Pls specify if any configuration required for this.
Thanks in Advance,
Regards,
Pavan.

In SAPscript, you set the Page Format for the document in the "Page Format" field of the "Basic Settings" page of the documents "Header" information. The popup list of this field will show all available formats in your system, so this is a ggod way to make sure your new format is set up properly.
For reports, page format is set either with the LINE-SIZE addition to the REPORT and NEW-PAGE commands, or through the PARAMETERS addition to the NEW-PAGE command. When you use LINE-SIZE the print system picks the format for you, based on the available formats in the systems.
I don't remember if there is an activation step for Page Formats, or if saving is all you have to do.

I think it is Printer problem. Check your printer settings.

Page format for SAP-Script not working in 4.6C

Hi all,
I have a problem regarding check printing.
I am using SAP version 4.6C
The size of paper for check printing is
width = 231 mm
Height = 304 mm
So for this I have created a new page format with these details in SPAD.
Then I assigned this Page format to spool format and assigned that spool format to SAPWIN driver. I have assigned this page format to the SCRIPT that is used for check printing .
But when I am taking the print out for the check with new page format, the printer dont print till the end of page, it prints till the total amount on check and then stops there. So this creates an alignment problem when taking printout for multiple checks.
Please give some solution for this.
Regards,
Bharat.

I guess you are printing on dot matrix printer. If yes, try to do some physical printer settings for the dot matrix printer by following the printer manual. I guess you have to change the page size.. or set default printer settings... it may help you to solve your problem...
if not goto your device types tab in SPAD and select device types.. select your device from the list (for ex, SAPWIN) click format and goto the format that you have inserted for this device types.. double click on your format, you will see printer Indialization.. try to write code like this
set page length to 8.5 inch (=52 lines at 6 LPI)
\e\0x43\0x44
Note the above hexa decimal value can be obtained by going through the printer manual.
Close the thread once your question is answered.

Printing A3 page format using ABAP List from SAP is a problem...

Hi Experts,
I am trying to print a standard output (ABAP List) A3 page size from SAP.
I used SWIN, SAPWIN, I9HP4 device types, but none of them worked.
I created page format type ZYEVMIYE 290MM 420MM and the page format L120, W200. In order to make it usable with page size is A3. Unfortunately this did not work either.
The behaviour of the problem is when I tried to print with the device types that mentioned above then printer indicator comes to an error. And nothing comes out from the printer.
Just to be on the safe side I made a test from windows self test, it resulted success with A3 page size format. So from this point of the view I got a thought that somehow SAP (selected device types) is not able to send correct signal to Printer for page size A3, because on the printer information screen displays load Tray2 for A4 this is showing that SAP sends Printer a signal for page format A4.
I need help on how to make SAP (selected device type) send a correct signal to Printer in order to printout A3 page size format.
Quick reply will much be appreciated.

Hi,
At last i got a Solution to my Question.
The Problem is that in my SAP-Code they have been translated the PDF into 255 string.But i am retreiving using 132 string.So, i resolved in this way.
For Each dr As DataRow In ds.Tables(0).Rows
Dim dataline As String = dr(0)
If dataline.Length < 255 Then
dataline = dataline.PadRight(255, " ")
End If
sb.Append(dataline)
Next.
May be this Thread is useful to Others.

How SAP device type SWIN sends a page format?

Hi all,
I changed page format (from DINA4 to INCH12) for my SmartForm and try it print with SWIN (I2SWIN) device type.
It has printed with cca 11 xx paging (not full 12") so next pages move upper and upper.
So I have printed it to Text printer in Windows and look at Print controls. And I can find nothing about page formating.
Can you help me please? I would lke to send right page formating.
Note 21738 - Device type SAPWIN says that print control "Esc p xx;" - xx=40 is INCH12.

Yes, it was first thing I tried.
In "initialization" phase I used "\e%SAPWIN%" and "\ep40;" (German Std Fanfold with 8 1/2" width, 12" length). (In some notes was written SWIN doesnt support ""initialization" phase, so I tried, in second step, use it in "first page" too.)
Form output looks like here:
" %SAPWIN% p40; %SAPWIN% OCb Op1 Os1 PP "
It doesnt work. Printed pages (length) have been same as about A4 length yet .
As you can see, printer driver "SWIN SAPlpd/SAPWIN driver 3.0 " add control " %SAPWIN%" after my "add-on's". Is it good, or are my settings deleted by using of it?
Whar are you thinking about:
" Esc q m; Set page length in m*1/10 millimeters (SAPLPD 4.25 or higher)"
+"Esc O M p|l p = Use physical paper edge
l = Use logical paper edge (printable area) [default
(commands only effective with enable_phys_margins=1 [default)"+

Hi expert,
I designed form for invoice print ,in that for multiple pages footer should be print on last page only and hight of the main window should be increase (means if footer will display on last page then space of footer should be used for main window in multiple
page format)
for eg .if i have 12 item so 5 items displyed on each page but i want to print 10 item on first page and remaing on second and after that i want to print footer.
Regards,
Jyotsna

Hi,
Has you tried to create a "new page" copy of FIRST, and make it the LAST_PAGE... On it you are going to create the desired footer.
The Page Secuence will be something like this:
If you are trying to print 12 items, then PAGE 1 (10 items) -> LAST_PAGE (2 remaining items).
Hope it helps you...

How to create a page format at sapscript?

Hi all,
Please help me in creating a page format for sapscript.
Thanks.

Hi Deniz,
Page format Specifies the format in which the form needs to be printed. E.g. Dina4, US Letter etc. The page format is determined from spool administration table with transaction SPAD.
When u create new SAP Script from SE71 , u get 2 tabs- adminstrative data and basic settings.
when u select Basic settings tab , u have options to set page format.
DINA4 is the very common page format we generally use.
REWARD IF USEFUL
thanks and regards

How to create new Page Format

Hello
i want to create new page format in sap script
can any body guide to crate this & how to assign this
thnks in advance

Hi Nitin,
You can create a new page format by transaction code SPAD. Here you will have to create a cutomised page format for ex: 'ZPAGE'.
After this you will have to create a format type 'ZPAGE'. Assign the page format 'ZPAGE' to format type 'ZPAGE'. Pls make sure that both the names are identical.
Once you do that you will have to assign the format type ZPAGE to the printer which you want to use.
Now you can use this page format in your script.
Hope this helps.
