PO printing into PDF using a customized program

Dear All,
I understand that program RSTXPDFT4 is use to generate/print PO in PDF format using the spool no as input.
My question is there any similar program like this that PO can be printed in PDF but the input is PO Number.?
Thanks,
Rgds,
Shela

if you want print in PDF, then you should use PDF based forms instead of SAPscript or smart forms

A simple way is to flatten the form fields, which converts the field appearances to regular page contents. You can do this with JavaScript or PDF Optimizer (Advanced > PDF Optimizer > Discard Objects > Flatten form fields).

Setting Font for converting multiple text files into PDF using VB 6.0

Dear All,
Am converting multiple text files into PDF using VB6.0. Currently, am unable to control the font face and size for the generated files. Below is the procedure am using for each file;
Public Sub proc_convert_to_PDF(srcFilename As String, destFilename As String)
Dim p_AcroApp As CAcroApp
Dim p_VDoc As CAcroAVDoc
Dim p_DDoc As CAcroPDDoc
Dim IsOk As Boolean
Set p_AcroApp = CreateObject("AcroExch.App")
Set p_VDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.AVDoc")
Call p_VDoc.Open(srcFilename, "")
Set p_VDoc = p_AcroApp.GetActiveDoc
If p_VDoc.IsValid Then
Set p_DDoc = p_VDoc.GetPDDoc
' Fill in pdf properties.
p_DDoc.SetInfo "Title", Format(Date, "dd-mm-yyy")
p_DDoc.SetInfo "Subject", srcFilename
If p_DDoc.Save(1 Or 4 Or 32, destFilename) <> True Then
MsgBox "Failed to save " & srcFilename
End If
p_DDoc.Close
End If
'Close the PDF
p_VDoc.Close True
p_AcroApp.Exit
'Clear Variables
Set p_DDoc = Nothing
Set p_VDoc = Nothing
Set p_AcroApp = Nothing
End Sub
What I need;
1) to be able to set the font face of the destination file ( destFilename)
2) to be able to set the font size of the destination file ( destFilename)
Am using Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Type Library
Kindly Help.
Thanks in advance

We didn't say it doesn't work. We said it isn't supported.
There are a number of other ways to make a PDF. The one which would
give the most control is if your application directly printed to GDI,
controlling the font directly. This could print to Adobe PDF.
You could look for an application that gives control of font for
printing.
You could use a text-to-PostScript system and distill the result. You
could even look for a non-Adobe text-to-PDF.
Working in the unsupported and dangerous world you chose, the font
size for text conversion is set (and this is very bad design from
Adobe) in the settings for Create PDF > From Web Page. There is no API
to this.

Error while trying to export a report into PDF using JRC (Linux env)

On my Windows environment the JRC export into PDF work perfectly. I know that there are some known issues regarding the usage of JRC on Linux environments. Could this be one of those?
Any solution (or workaround) would be highly appreciated!
Thank you!
PS Maybe this is relevant: I use a MySQL database!

When trying to print to PDF from a sales program we use it keeps throwing errors

When several people try to print to PDF from MAS90, it will save it and create a file as it normally does. However, it does not open in Acrobat 9 Pro as it normally does, and displays the famous error "Acrobat could not open 'xxxx.pdf' because it is either not a supported..." Yet when you manually open the file from the file system, it opens just fine.
So to rehash what I just said, when I print to pdf, it asks me where to save, the notification said the printing completed, adobe opens and displays error. If you click on the file, then the file opens just fine.
However several other people do not have this error while trying to print to file from mas90. Does anyone out there have any idea what could possibly be causing this error to be displayed?

Hi ftd12300,
Are you saving the PDFs you're creating to a network drive or are they being saved locally?

Print to PDF - using Snow Leopard (Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead, choose

i have a PDF form that i created that is used as a custom proposal that my company sends out to potential clients. the form in its editable state is only used internally. we recently upgraded to snow leopard, but prior to the upgrade, we were able to fill the custom proposal form out using adobe reader, and, as you well know, we weren't able to save that edited document as a PDF with the custom form fields filled out. our work around using adobe reader was to print to a pdf using the adobe pdf printer in the printer dialog. with the addition of snow leopard, however, instead of choosing the adobe pdf printer, we were to choose PDF from the bottom left corner, then Save As PDF, and it would spit out an uneditable pdf that then allowed us to email it to the potential client without them being able to edit it as well as have an internal, digital copy for our records instead of having lots of paper floating around (i know this is also doable using security that disallows the client certain editing privileges, but printing to a pdf is much quicker and more efficient, and the pdf security isn't really that secure at its best).
in any case, i came across this gem of a post here on the support forums that installs another option from the PDF drop down on the bottom left of the print dialog menu that reads Save As Adobe PDF and is supposed to do exactly what i am trying to get it to do...print to a pdf file from adobe reader.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50981.html
once i updated to acrobat 9.2 (as the link above suggests 9.1), however, the Save As Adobe PDF does appear in the print dialog menu, but it still gives me the same error that acrobat 8 - 9 gave me while using Snow Leopard — Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead, choose File > Save — and as i've already explained, you can't save an edited pdf form in reader (as i am the only one in the office with acrobat) and still keep the fields as you've entered them in. the only work around is to print to a pdf but is apparently having some recent problems.
using acrobat, however, i know that i can save the editable pdf as a new file with the fields customized as i have left them, but it still saves it as an editable pdf and the print to a pdf option still remains the best option...that way we have digital copies internally that are uneditable that can be printed at any time or emailed to the client.
how can i do print to a pdf, based on what i've written above, using snow leopard and acrobat and reader?

I cannot print a PDF using the Adobe printer.

I have been using the PDF printer for years on the same system (Windows Vista Business using Acrobat v8), but now it won't create a PDF document from any program (Firefox browser, MS Outlook mail, MS Word, etc.). I can start the print process, and it gets to the Creating PDF screen then finishes but doesn't show the results and no document was created.
I just downloaded a new version 8.2.5 but that didn't resolve the problem, so I uninstalled all and reinstalled the program from a disk, then downloaded multiple updates until I'm back to the current v8.2.5. The Printing Preferences were reset to print to the default Output Folder, and I changed that back to my usual location, though I've had to change that in the several locations offered but it's still not saving it; could this be related to the non-print issue?
The Printer is called Adobe PDF, the Driver is called Adobe PDF Cconverter. I thought maybe the Driver got corrupted but I can't find the Drivers on this site. Please help!

Hey Daniel,
Have you tried repair Adobe Acrobat DC?
If no, then please repair the installation under Help menu.
This could also happen due to an Adobe Acrobat DC installation file corruption. To resolve this issue :-
Uninstall Adobe Acrobat DC using the Acrobat cleaner utility.
Restart your computer.
Re-install Acrobat Acrobat DC Download Adobe Acrobat free trial | Acrobat Pro DC.
Let me know if the issue persist.

Converting a word 2000 file into pdf using Adobe Acrobat Standard X

I reinstalled my Adobe Acrobat Standard X today, and tried to convert a *.doc word file into pdf, but the application could not open the word file and got stalled. I remembered that last time I installed the application the same probelm cropped up and I had to install a Microsoft patch that was required to do this, What is the patch file and how do I get it?

I answer my question myself. I have solved it myself. The answer can be found by searching adobe website. But I give it here if it can be useful to others. Go to control panel. Go to Add or remove programs. Click on Modify in the listed Adobe program. Click Next in the box that appears. Select Modify. Click on + sign against pdF maker to expand. Click on X sign against 'this feature is not available' which shifts on to the little box on the left of Microsoft Office. Click on Apply. Quit. Once the Microsoft Office becomes disabled in Adobe, Word will open in all places.

Auto Printing A PDF Using v7 Onwards

I have upgraded to version 10 of Acrobat and I am now having an issue with auto printing a PDF.
My objective is to load a PDF within a new browser window and for it to print to the default printer without need for the user to do anything. The user will press a button which will activate a perl program with javascript.
When I was using Acrobat 6 the PDF would print automatically but now it shows an alert stating "This document is trying to print.Do you want to allow this?". Selecting "Yes" prints it to the default printer on the machine.
The code I currently use which worked in Acrobat v6 (7 onwards it does not work) is, prInit('this.print({bUI: false, bSilent: true, bShrinkToFit: true});');
Any help with this is appreciated.
Steve

Adobe has found others are silently or without permission saving forms or print forms to somewhere other than the user's system.
New security restrictions have been added. See the Acrobat JS API Reference for information about creating a trusted function that is placed in an Acrobat application folder of each user needing to save or print a copy of the open PDF.

Intermittent ioerror printing to PDF using Acrobat -- "readstring"

I posted this query before, but the term "Distiller" seems to have obscured my issue.
Far, far too often I get an error log like this, when trying to print to PDF from Photoshop Elements:
%%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%
%%[ Error: ioerror; OffendingCommand: readstring ]%%
Stack:
ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿýûðÖ²U/

-file-
%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%
TextText
I have simply tried Ctrl-P again to print to Adobe PDF, and maybe half the time it works, without any change in Photoshop image that I want converted to PDF. Sometimes, superstitiously, I reduce the res/file size and it goes through, but not always. The diagnostic tells me next to nothing, although I was a programmer for 20 years. There seems to be an Acrobat component named "Distiller," and "readstring" is failing for some reason that only one of the product programmers, or someone with similar knowledge, can understand, and the programmer does not tell me the user what to do about it.
What is the cause of the "ioerror"
The Acrobat product I am using is Acrobat 6.
I would know nothing about "opening a file in Distiller." The success and failures appear haphazard, but as a former professional programmer I know that there are deterministic reasons, even if nobody ever discovers them. Debugging programs is very hard work.
Perhaps someone can suggest a means of forwarding the error message to someone in Adobe programming, who already knows what the error message should mean to me, the user.

The details of the error are not familiar to me. However to explain where it comes from and a possible check on things I will try to explain the process.
There are basically 3 levels related to the Adobe PDF printer. The most fundamental is to print to file with the Adobe PDF printer. That process creates a PS file (may have a PRN extension). Then open the file in Distiller (part of the Acrobat sweet that converts PS and EPS files to PDF) and see if you get the same error, or it may possibly work.
The process you used to simply print to the printer depends on AcroTray running in the background. AcroTray automates the call to Distiller (that is the product showing the message you got). I am wondering in a way if the PS file somehow is getting corrupted - that is what corrupted files sort of look like in Distiller.
The last process available in several products is PDF Maker, basically a preprocessor for the Adobe PDF printer that adds PDF Marks to the file that are recognized by Distiller for adding links and such.
Don't know that this will help, but the first process may be worth trying just to see if it works, or if something else is in error. If you have a separate PS printer installed, you can also try printing to file with that and processing with Distiller. The problem at this point is to find what process is messing up.

Extracting Base64 images embeded inside XML and Convert it into PDF using Biztalk

Hi,
I'm presently working in a scenario, where we will be getting huge XML Files containing Base64 encoded images. The scenario goes like this :-
1) Client will dump the XML files with embedded Base64 images in a sFTP location.
1) Firstly, we have to extract Base64 encoded images and the metadata from the XML file.
3) Secondly, we need to convert the extracted Base64 encoded image into multiple pdf.
4) Then merge the PDF's into a single file.
5) Then the merge pdf will store to a particular location.
5) It is presume that, the file will be of very big in size ~ 1 GB XML file, so we need to take care of the performance as well.
The sample xml looks like:-
<ns0:tran xmlns:ns0="http://Sample.Schemas.Record_XML">
<tranheader>
</tranheader>
<item>
    <image>
      <frontimage>
        <frontimage> image 1 part 1</frontimage>
      </frontimage>
      <rearimage>
        <rearimage>image 1 part 2</rearimage>
      </rearimage>
      <frontimage>
        <frontimage> image 2 part 1</frontimage>
      </frontimage>
      <rearimage>
        <rearimage>image 2 part 2</rearimage>
      </rearimage>
      <frontimage>
        <frontimage> image 3 part 1</frontimage>
      </frontimage>
      <rearimage>
        <rearimage>image 3 part 2</rearimage>
      </rearimage>
    </image>
</item>
<trantrailer>
</trantrailer>
</ns0:tran>
Thanks & Regards

Do you really need to use BizTalk for this requirement? This can be done better with standard .NET code through a Windows service/schedule task/ if you want to poll,
you can implement file watcher class and poll the file as when it arrive to SFTP folder and convert the image in base64 to PDFs.
Another point, I don’t know why you want to “convert the extracted Base64 encoded
image into multiple pdf” (Point-3) and “Then merge the PDF's into a single file”-
point4. You can create a single PDF file (unless I don’t know the reason for creating separate PDF file and merge it again as single PDF file)
Anyway, if you still need to use BizTalk, you have somes options in general:
Option1:
Receive the message using BizTalk receive location using passthrouhg pipeline at receive end
Create a send port with filter for receive portname. In the send port use a custom send pipeline. In the send pipeline use a custom pipeline component which will extract the base64 content from
the XML file, convert the base64 encoded image as PDF and send the PDF file in the send port level.
Option 2 – this options works better if you have some process based on your
<tranheader> record:
Receive the message using BizTalk receive location using a custom pipeline strip off, decode and store the base64
encoded document in a temporary store (file system). So when the message is published in message box db, the message doesn’t contain the heafty encoded64 data part, message will be light weight when its published into message box.
Process the XML message (without bae64 encoded document) with or without orchestration where you will do processing based on your
<tranheader> record.
In send last moment –at send port level, retrieve the stored file from the
temporary store (file system), convert the image to PDF (i,e, hefty processing like creation of PDFs/merging) can be done at the send pipeline level and send the PDF file
to destination.
Following are the guidelines you should keep in mind if you need to achieve this process in BizTalk:
Try to avoid publishing the hefty message to message box.
Conversion of base64 to PDF can be done only using a .NET code. So your options to do this conversion in BizTalk are either in Receive pipeline/send pipeline/ .NET helper in orchestration.
Try not to use Orchestration as much as possible, because of heavy processing and message transmission is already involved.
Following articles shall help you in this context:

Report to check authorization object used in customized programs

Hi Guys,
An auditor came and he raised a question to us, he asked whether all of our customized transactions and programs are maintained with authorization checks? The question is how can we check what authorization objects are used for our customized programs and transaction codes? The developer did not maintain the objects used for that program in SU24 table. Is there a program or a report to show us all the authorization object used for a customised program or transaction? Example : T-code MIGO we can check in SU24 table for all the authorization object used. How do we check for customized tcodes? Please advise. Thanks!
Edited by: Jarod Tan on Nov 25, 2010 9:42 AM

Note that some programs are built in such a way that no (visible) auth check is necessary, or even desired at all.
To determine the necessity of an auth check, you should check that starting it has an entry point (tcode, rfc, service) which is appropriately restricted. The rest (whether and where and how a further check is evaluated) is entirely dependent to what the program actually does.
Well designed applications generally have centralized functions and methods, and the checks are in there or a "base check" they use.
Others again use the same in UI programming to determine the visibility of functions, to make the application more intuitive for the user. This on it's own is however not a sufficient auth check to rely on.
Code review is an art form!
Cheers,
Julius

How to print to PDF using HP Laserjet 4100 & Acrobat Pro 8.1.1.?

Since updating system to 10.5, the Print to PDF feature does not seem to work anymore.
Have reinstalled software. Downloaded the Acrobat 8 Pro Patch, but it doesn't recognize the installed software, so I can't upgrade what's on my system.
Printer reaction is a pause. What to do???

First your not uptodate Acrobat and Reader of that vintage last update was 8.1.3.
Next: Go to Printer Utility and remove AdobePDF Print Driver.
Then open Raeder or Acrobat and go to Help Menu.
scroll down to Repair-Replace. Click on the AdobePdf printer only. and run
now try to create a PDF. If works Its fixed.
If not try repair permissions with Disk Utility. Se if works now.
If not go to web Browser and look for AppleJack a low level Repair Utility, down load, install. (download version for your System OSX.3, OSX.4, OSX.5, etc.)
Next go into Single User Mode and after B&W screen comes up and you have a Blinking Block cursor. Type applejack.
Run each option in order. not on several you run for system , then User.
Some items take a long time to complete. especial when repair in low level files systems
after last item has been run follow instructions to quit and reboot.
note: after this run and you boot computer has to rebuild clean cache file and may take a while to boot up. seeing the winder, blue screen, and even rebulding of Dock and Main menu.
Once complete. Computer should for a time run much faster.
Now try to create a PDF and see what happens.
If that doesn't work you may have to uninstall and reinstall and run all updates before doing anything.
If none of this works. Come back and let us know
