PDF Landscape Format

Friends,
I have a program which writes a report. Since this is scheduled in the background, a spool is created. I am converting this spool into a PDF (function module CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF) and sending this PDF as a mail attachment (function module SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1). The PDF which I am getting is in portrait format.
Can I get a PDF which is in Landscape format?
I tried customising function module CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF and changing the standard layout from 'X_65_80' to 'X_90_120' but the PDF output is still portrait.
Please suggest a solution.
Warm Regards,
Sagar Satalkar

I have a 2 page PDF (portrait format), how can I convert the format to landscape?

I have a 2 page (portaait format) PDF file how can I convert the PDF file into landscape format before I change it to XL?

Hi jsremick,
To change the page orientation of a PDF, you need to use Acrobat. (Reader allows you to rotate the page view, but not the pages themselves).
If you don't have Acrobat, feel free to give it a try. You can download the free 30-day trial from http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html.

PDF in Landscape format

Hi,
ESS is displaying a smartform as PDF.
The smartform is generated in landscape format.
And this is rendered in portal as PDF in portrait format.
Do we have any way to render the PDF in landscape format?

Converting to PDF in landscape format

Hello Friends ,
I am doing an ALV grid report which needs to be sent to users Lotus Notes Inbox. I was successful in converting the report to PDF format and sending it to the inbox.
The problem is that report has 15 columns . All these 15 columns are displayed in the PDF format but they are minimized . I need to zoom 200% to see all the columns .
Is there a way it can be printed in Landscape format ??
Any suggestions ?

When converting a document to PDF, it won't convert my landscape format !

In Microsoft, when I convert a document that's in landscape format to a PDF, it converts in portrait format. In the PDF I open print, select orientation and/or page setup, change the format but all the text does'nt change back to landscape. How do I get my original format when converting to a PDF ?

This isn't the proper forum for that. This is for the free Reader application which does not convert files to PDF.
Depending on what you actually use to convert to PDF, you may need a Microsoft forum or the Adobe Acrobat forum.

PDF pages in landscape format like a book?

I want my PDF file to be in landscape format. I don't mean that each page is landscape but the stacking of pages goes from left to right not top to bottom. I don't see an option for this. I would like to know how to do this two ways:
1. When I create a PDF out of WORD documents.
2. When I merge several PDF files into one Binder.
I'm new to pdf's
Hope this makes sense.
Thanks so much!

What you want is set up in the Print menu. when print window opens click on copies and pages and scroll down to two sided printing.
Choose book setting. Tablet setting show image of a table with spiral ring at top.

Landscape formatting question

Can anyone help me with a formatting question? I have a number of PDFs that are landscape format. Every time I open them they default to portrait, even when I change orientation in page set-up and re-save...

You are only changing the view, not the pdf. Use the Rotate command in the Document menu, not the view menu.

Printing to Landscape format, not Portrait

Hello,
I'm trying to turn a PDF that was created in Landscape format
into a Flash Paper SWF. When I drag the PDF onto Flash Paper, it
creates a SWF but in a Portrait (print) format. This isn't
acceptable because you can't read the content (unless you hold your
laptop sideways for the whole thing). I didn't see an option
anywhere in Flash Paper to set this. I imagine there must be a way
to do this?

After additional research I have found that the only way to get my labels to consistently print in landscape is to edit them with a previous version of Crystal.
I had hoped that I could save to a previous version from Crystal 2008 but there is no option to do this. I was thinking this because MS Word and MS Excel can saave to previous versions (2007 will save to 95 etc.)
Hope this helps others.

View in Landscape format

Hello,
I have a PDF file where all of the pages display in portrait format. I want to change some of the pages to display in landscape format. I then want to save it so that when visitors to my website will view it in the format that I have set (either portrait or landscape). I used to be able to do this Acrobat 8 Pro by rotating the pages the way I wanted them and then saving the PDF. This doesn't seem to work in Acorbat 9 Pro. Is there a way to accomplish this in Acrobat 9?

Hi,
This still should work in Acrobat 9. Select the page you want to rotate and select Document: Rotate Pages. . .
Save the file.

EL7 - Black background in pdf - upright format

In an exported pdf-presentation, a black background always fits the page to landscape format.
But I want to use it in upright with a Tablet-PC, so the Page should not have a black background.
Does anybody know how to disable this function so that the pages only include the in the editors made documents?
Thanks for all replies!

Hi,
Can you please mention the exact steps and attach the sample file?

SQL Plus command to print a report in Landscape format

Hi,
what is the SQL Plus command to print a report in Landscape format?

Hi,
what is the SQL Plus command to print a report in Landscape format?SQLPlus doesn't print, and it doesn't know about 'landscape' vs. 'portrait' any more than it knows about fonts. the only 'formatting' it knows is line size, page size. And all it does with line size is know where to insert a CR/LF pair (windows) or a CR (*nix). The only thing it knows to do with page size is repeat column headers.
The rest is up to whatever application you use to open the pure asciii text spool file.

Char Mode height=66
I have done same settings for Header Section and Trailer Section. Please help me.
Thanks in advance.

You will need to edit prt files to add the printer escape sequences to change the page orientation to landscape. Printer escape sequences can be obtained from the printer manual, or the printer vendor.
For instance, HP printer escape codes can be obtained from the HP website under the printer support links.
The steps below describe how to print a landscape, character mode report from a Windows NT PC on an HP 4100N Printer. The 4100N is a dual mode printer that can use either PCL or Postscript printer language.
1. Use a web browser to navigate to the HP website and obtain the printer escape codes for the HP 4100N. If you are unable to locate the HP4100N printer, look for generic PCL information. The HP site also includes detailed information on the printer command syntax.
2. The HP4100N printer command for landscape page orientation is "ESC&l1O" - where ESC indicates escape, '&' (ampersand) is the parameterized character, 'l'(lower case letter l) is the group character, '1' (number one) is the printer value character and 'O' (upper case letter O) is the termination character.
NOTE: The HP documentation uses "EC" to signify the escape character.
It also suggests pressing CTRL and the letter P together, then
releasing both keys and pressing the ESC key. If this is done in
a dos editor, a left arrow will actually be displayed on screen.
This character cannot be interpreted by Oracle Reports and will
cause printing errors if used in a .prt file. Instead, just use
the letters "ESC" to indicate that the code that follows is a printer
escape sequence.
3. Make a copy of the wide.prt file and rename it to "mywide.prt."
4. Add the page orientation escapes to mywide.prt file:
printer "mywide"
height 66
width 132
before report esc "&l1O" *** Puts Page in Landscape Orientation***
after page control(L)
after report esc "&l0O" *** Resets page orientation to Portrait ***
return control(M)
linefeed control(J)
SYNTAX NOTES: The escape sequence must be enclosed in double quotes ("). The above comments regarding page orientation are used to clarify where the escape codes gets added, but they should NOT be used when editing
the actual .prt file.
5. Save mywide.prt file to the $ORACLE_HOME\report60\printers\ directory.
6. Go to Windows PC -> Start -> Settings -> Printers and open the properties for the HP printer. Ensure that the option to "Always Spool Raw Data" is checked. This option is usually under the General Printer
Options, or Spool Options. On Windows NT, you must have Administrator privileges to change this setting.
7. Test running the report to the printer and specify desformat mywide. It is not necessary to include the file extension (.prt).
8. The report will now print in landscape orientation.

PDF image format?

From what I understand, the PDF file format can contain text, vector graphics and raster graphics in many different formats. When I print to a PDF (via Save as PDF... in the print dialog box), what type of image format is actually used inside the PDF (which I assume is just a container format, really)?
Say I come across a full quality RAW file from a 10-megapixel camera. If I open that image in an image editor and then print it as a PDF, what ends up in the PDF file? Is it a JPEG? A PNG? Some type of otherwise unknown lossless format?
I assume the screenshot mechanism in OS X that saves to PDF uses similar technology. In that case, is a screenshot saved as a PDF better or worse quality than a PNG or JPEG (using a utility like TinkerTool to change the default screenshot format)?

Actually, it doesn't matter what you set on a folio level. The article settings override the folio settings. The folio settings are supposed to appear as the default when you create articles, but it doesn't work that way at this time.

Acrobat cannot open files in the "Adobe PDF document" format

The document “example.pdf” could not be opened. Acrobat cannot open files in the “Adobe PDF document” format.
Hi All,
Running Acrobat Pro 9.4.2 on Snow Leopard, have never had this problem before. Showed up about a week ago, I believe with new update. Can't double click on a file in Finder, or drag and drop to AcrobatPro in Dock, but can open from within Acrobat Pro / File / Open command.
All my preferences are correct with "Open With Acrobat Pro" as the default.
I've read all the threads I can find with no answers yet.
Anyone found and answer, I see a lot of us are going through this over the last year.
Only possible common thread I have found is possibly HP printers. But I've been running HP printers all along with no issues.
Thanks for you input.
