Print Output in Smart forms

Hi,
There is a Strange issue I am facing now that is print output is getting changed according to the printer settings.
Even though I specified the output_options-tdprinter = 'ZPDFUC',and output_options-tddest = 'LP01' while calling smart form FM the printer option always takes the printer setting present in user profile.
Is there a solution where the smart form by default picks one printer but not in the User profile settings.
Regards,
Deepa

Hi,
There is a field check it and set the value X to overwrite the system details with manual settings. when calling the smartforms.
Thanks,

Use of NACE after creating print program n smart form

Wat's d purpose of NACE?I hav created my own print program n smart form according to my own requirement.If NACE is necessary 4 my smart from.How can i use NACE i mean navigation steps.
Please help me out.Its urgent.
Thanks & Regards,
Santhosh.

Hi Santhosh,
Nace is for message control settings. Say if u want to trigger a Smartform or an Idoc or any other customized program u can do the message control settings.
Say at the time of Sales Order creation or updation u want to trigger a Smartform, then u have to follow the following steps:
Goto NACE
Select application V1 and then click Output Type.
create a new Output type or copy the existing one abd save it with new name
then in Processing Routine Mention the driver program name and in Form routine mention the main subroutine name.
In Smartform mention your SMartform name and also the layout if u have ceated.
Again go to NACE and Select application V1 and press Procedures.
here out of the many procedures u have to select the right one and attach your Output Type to it.
You can also create a condition record..Say if u want to trigger this Smartforms for Sales Order of particular type.
Hope this helps.

Delivery Output- 2 smart forms

Hi Gurus,
we are having a delivery out put 'ZDUR'.
In delivery output configuration 2 programs and 2 smart forms have been assigne to this out put.
but when i try to print the output iam getting only the layout of the second smartform.
but i want the layout of the first smartform for the same output.
could any one suggest on this.
Srini

Hi,
It is not possible to give two program in NACE for Delivery Output. Why u want two programs. IF u want two programs and two smartforms for the same output type u need to Create one common prog and assign it in NACE and write the logic based on u r condition it will call either of the program.
No Need to the SMARTFORM NAME in the NACE. IF u have given one smartform name and in the print program if u selected the ssecond smartform based on u r condition u will get the output with second smartform.
If u have any problem revert back.

Srinivas.

SMARTFORM-> execute->execute->pass values if require to import & table parameters ->execute-> on the pop up window give Printer name as LP01 and press print preview.
For debussing -
1. write BREAK POINT in the code window.
2. Put a break point on the call function in the driver program

How to Print Vertically in Smart Forms

I need to print data in vertical format into columns in smart forms. Can any one give me the solution.

Hi Sreedhar,
In Smartforms, if you need to print vertical text, only possible way (That i know) is, Create a Bitmap image of the text and rotate the same to 90 deg and then use that image in your smartform....
If you can use adobe forms, you can rotate the text to any angle that you want....this is one of the main advantage of adobe forms.
