Print text vertically in SAPScript

Hi,
How to print text vertically in SAPScript?
Can we use controls for it?
Please help its urgent.
Thanks,
Madhura

You can print horizantally. using the following code
You know the total length of your text right.
You need to have conditions to avoid unnecessary spaces.
If &v_text(1)& is not initial.
ph &v_text(1)&
endif.
if &v_text+1(1) is not initial.
ph &v_text+1(1)
enddif.
if &v_text+2(1) is not initial.
ph &v_text+2(1)
enddif.
But we cant rotate letters to left . Not sure . Will explore on it and let you know.
Reward points if useful.

Printing text verticallyin smartform

Hi all,
How can we print text vertically.(INVERTED ) IN SMARTFORM.
Tnks in Advance.

The only way to print text vertically in SMARTFORMS is to place each character on it's own line or in a specific window or template that has been created to hold one character--as in the following example:
E
x
a
m
p
l
e
Adobe printforms on SAP (t-code SFP) can rotate your text if you're on a system that has been setup for that.
If, by "inverted", you mean upside-down then the only way to do this in SMARTFORMS, that I know of, is to create an image of your information upside-down and include that as an image in your SMARTFORM where needed (not recommended). If you have to pull the information in dynamically for this issue then this approach will not work. There are bar codes that can be inverted (upside-down) in SMARTFORMS but that was not your question--just thought I would mention that.

SAPScript: Is it possible to print text on an angle?

Hello,
Is it possible to print text from the lower left corner to the upper right corner using SAPScript?
Thx.
Andy Jacobs

Hi Andrews,
it is possible to print by placing each characters in different line.
for example:
             A
              N
               G
                L
                 E
                  P
                   R
                    I
                     N
                      T
by using tabs and each character will be placed in an angular fashion using tabs
Cheers

Printing text at particular position in SAPscript

Hi All,
I want to print text at particular position, I used Command POSITION but it is not working .
As I am using counter as Y position for a box and i want to print lines of text in that box. since I am able to position box according to counter but, texts which I want to display in box is not comming inside the box according to the counter.
Please suggest what command to use for this.
Thanks & Regards
Shweta

Yes Bernsen ,
You are right. POSITION works only with BOX not with text.
And also I can not create text in the another window as there are two headers of main window in my form . one is for the line Items and after completion of it tis another header which is for the another lineitems say for withholding taxes of the vendor. so I need both the headers in the main window.
Any way finally I got answer of my question. I will want to share with you all what I did:
For the first box headre no y coordinate was required as height was the main thing here.
Then came the line items . I set counter for this line item.
This counter I used as ypos for the box. then for displaying heared text I made some adjustement with this counter as if line item is 2 then I gave one line space .
whereas for multiple lines i.e. if no. of line is more than 2 then I gave 2 line space above the text to fit it into box. as my text was always appearing below drawn box.
Thanks.

How to Print text in two main windows

For printing label have created two main windows on a page. calling function write_form In ABAP Program under do loop for two times.
but program prints only one window. why is it so? how can i print text on two windows.
do 2 times.
COUNT = COUNT + 1.
loop at itab WHERE DEPTT LT 200.
    CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_FORM'
      EXPORTING
        ELEMENT = 'TEST'
        FUNCTION = 'SET'
        TYPE     = 'BODY'
      WINDOW   = 'MAIN'
      EXCEPTIONS
       ELEMENT   = 1
       FUNCTION = 2
       TYPE      = 3
       UNOPENED = 4
       UNSTARTED = 5
       WINDOW    = 6
       OTHERS    = 7.
endloop.
enddo.
Please guide.

Since the information is variable and coming out of the print program, I can assume you want to print many labels but two to a page. Also, any page numbering, etc will need to be updated. This is easily accomplished with SAPScript but a feature people rarely use I believe. Here are the simple steps:
1) On the Windows Screen: Creat a main window for the size of the label, etc knowing that you will be putting multiple windows on a page. For example, if page size is 8.5 x 11, maybe your window size is 6 X 4 or something similar. You only need one main window defined.
2) Now go to Page Windows Screen. Add a window MAIN and down at the bottom where it says Window Type put in MAIN. Next to this field is a little field about two characters long. In here put in '01'.
3) Now Add another window MAIN and down at the bottom put in '02'.
Hopefully this gives you the idea. I've done this with up to 30 small windows in order to print variable window for labels on label stock such as Avery 8167, etc.
Good Luck!

To print text in sapscrpit.

Hi
Check the Window size where you are printing the Text from the Variable
from the read text you will get into the internal table lines
so format those internal table line field as per the space available for that field and do

Is it possible to print barcodes from LT31 (SAPScript) on a Zebra?

Hi
We have a factory that would like to print their picking lists/transfer orders using transaction LT31 to a Zebra ZM600 printer. The transaction appears to create a spool in the SAPScript format.
We have tried pretty much all of the Zebra drivers (ZEB), a standard HP driver and a ASCII line printer driver (in SPAD) but nothing works - barcodes are not printed. For some drivers the format of the spool looks good in SP01, but then nothing is printed at all at the printer! In other cases the text is okay but barcodes are not, in other cases the text is complete gibberish.
The user has been informed that SmartForms should be used instead of SAPScript but we believe this would involve changes at ABAP level and our ABAP support is by a third party company which we are trying to avoid using.
I have seen SAP Note 179534 - Label printing with Zebra printers (SAPscript) but it seems this would also involve Application Support/ABAP teams etc.
Is there anything we (SAP Basis) or the end user can do to be able to print barcodes from LT31 to the Zebra printer without involving Application/ABAP support?
Thanks
Ross

Tried but get an error:
SAP spool error log
=====================
Print request processing log
The host spool is reporting errors
Unintelligible response received from assumed SAPLPD ("#")

Sap Script - Printing text

Hi Experts,
In a classical ABAP report we make use of
write:/20 'Text'.
to print text from the 20th column. Can we do something similar in a SAP Script Page Window. I have a box and lines drawn. Now I want the text to start exactly after the vertical line(column). Is there a way to do in SAP Script.
Regards
Abdullah.

Hi
You can do one thing. you can straight away write the field
&BSEG-SGTXT&
in two lines straight with offset.
in the first line T1 &BSEG-SGTXT+0(25)&
In second line T1 &BSEG-SGTXT+25(25)&
first write like this and see, is it printing or not.
Reward all helpfull answers

In SPAD the format page ad others elements are correctly setted.

My english it's very not so good... excuse me in advance.

Hi Luigi,
Sounds your like the print is set up for Landscape. Did you figure this one out already? See PAGE, options.

Print Text File in NW 3.12?

I have to admit some ignorance regarding NetWare printing, so my
apologies in advance...
I work for a document management company, and am trying to find a
solution for a customer running a fairly archaic, DOS 6.22-based
application that utilizes a NetWare 3.12 server for file and print
services. My need is to retrieve print output from their application,
in the form of a text file, and then reprocess it for automated faxing
through a fax server device.
My problem is this: their application seems to print directly to a
printer by defining what it calls a "network port" (which seems to map
to a spooler, 0 through 5) or LPT1, and by referencing a printer
definition. As far as I can tell, the files that are deposited in the
print queue are byte streams, i.e., they're not human-readable (they
have extra characters that I'm assuming are control characters). They
therefore aren't usable by my print distribution software.
I've tried using CAPTURE to send to a text file, but the application
seems to conflict with the command. If I set CAPTURE, then start the
application and send a job to LPT1, the application returns an error
that the printer is unavailable. Upon exiting the application the port
is no longer being captured (although I've tried all of the options I
can think of to keep it so). Oddly enough, the application does
successfully print a text file to LPT2 (for a barcode printer), which
is CAPTUREd via a command in the system autoexec.bat. This is done a
different part of the application.
If anyone can help me figure out a way to generate a text file in this
environment, or to work with the print file that's currently being sent
to the queue (e.g, can it be translated somehow to a simple text file?),
that would be much, much appreciated. This customer is in a tight spot,
with an unsupported application that they can't presently afford to
upgrade. My solution would save them enough money over time to replace
the system.
Again, thanks in advance for any help!
wynand32

If the Dos app has no print drivers included, then indeed it is relying
on NW and PRINTDEF/PRINTCON to do the formatting stuff. That must have
already been set up for it to be successfully printing now, it's just a
matter of adding a definition that doesn't do anything to the print text.
>In fact, given my ignorance of the NetWare environment, I'm not sure
how the term "driver" even applies, unless it would refer to the
printer definition.
I was referring to a driver within the Dos app, nothing to do with
NetWare. For instance Word Perfect for Dos came with Dos drivers for all
sorts of printers, one of which was a generic text driver.
>I wonder: is there a setting in PRINTDEF that could be changed for one
of the printer configs that would influence the output? Or, would
PRINTCON apply in this environment?
Not supplied, AFAICS, but either one of the simpler print drivers
supplied such as Diablo will do, or you'd need to set one up. Hopefully

will help you enough as it's been too long since I did it to remember

How to print text/data in flex 3 using printer???Plz help...

   Hi,
          plz tell me the way to print text/data using printer in flex. I tried the FlexPrintJob class. but it takes object of a container to be printed & prints the visible content of that container(along with scrollbars), bt i want to print all contents of the container(including invisible).
      I have tried to print bitmap image through FlexPrintJob but it takes lot of time for spooling... So plz help me out in printing(fast with all content) in flash
I am using flex 3 (flex Builder 3 IDE).
Thanks in advance!!!

Hi Sagar,
Don't worry You can use the below work around to print all the contents of the Container including the invisible contents under scrolll with out scroll bar..
So what the idea here is we are seeting the container height to full size with out scrolls before sending the container object to printer and as soon as you print the object you are restoring it to the original height with scrolls...so that you can print the full contents without scrolls...
You may have doubt that by chnaging and restoring the size the user may see momentary resize of the container but it is not so as it is a fraction of a second and user cannot notice this change... Give it a try ..I had already run into this problem recently and I have found a work around for this which is as below:
// Here mainContainer is the container or box id the contents of which you want to print
   private function doPrintContainer():void
    var printJob:FlexPrintJob = new FlexPrintJob();
    if(printJob.start() != true) return;
    try
     var mainContainerHeight:int = mainContainer.height;
     //Increasing the height of the desired component to be printed.
     mainContainer.height = mainContainer.measuredMinHeight;
     mainContainer.verticalScrollPolicy = "off";
     //Adding the resized Component to our FlexPrintjob and then sending the print request
     printJob.addObject(this,FlexPrintJobScaleType.MATCH_WIDTH);
     printJob.send();
     //Resizing the component back to normal size
     mainContainer.height = mainContainerHeight;
     mainContainer.verticalScrollPolicy = "auto";
    catch(error:Error)
                 trace("Error : " + error.message);
If this post answers your question or helps, please kindly mark it as such.
