Printing Smartforms in Other Language

Hi,
I have designed a smartform in English Language.
Then I translated the the Text to Arabic using SE63.
Now, I am getting the Print Priview properly. It is showing Arabic, if the logon language is Arabic and showing in English if the logon Language is English.
Also, we have created a output devide ZARABIC for printing in Arabic.
Though the print preview is comming properly, the print out is not comming properly for Arabic(Some Junk in Arabic is comming). It is comming properly for English using device LP01.
Note: If I type anything in Arabic in Wordpad and give printout, it is comming properly. So, there is no OS level problem. There is problem from SAP Side only.
The BASIS person has tried all the options available to him. Still it is not printing properly.
Please help me solve this problem.
Do suggest me, if I have to set anything in the Smartform.
Waiting for your valuable suggestion.
Regards,
Ishaq.

Ishaq,

Smartform printing issue in polish language

Hi All,
I am facing a problem in SMARTFORM .
I have developed a form in EN language and converted that in POLISH language using SE63 . When the form is printed in the POLISH language "#" is coming for some special characters of POLISH Language . ( e.g. 'ŁUAŚSĆ' ' but it is coming as '#US#S#'')
Please tell me how to handle these special characters in POLISH Language.
Thanks

Hi there,
There are many threads in the forum which talk about the accentuated and other special characters, in Polish and other languages. There are also many SAP notes about these issues.
The following can impact the output:
- if your system is Unicode or not
- which device type you use, and what is its code page ("character set")
- which font you use

Printing Pro*C Outputs with Other Language Text and PCL

Hi,
Since I did not find any separate forum for Pro*C, I am posting my query in this forum.
In our application, using Pro*C programs we are generating reports. These reports contain other language characters such as Arabic, Thai along with printer control characters (PCL). Earlier for the reports that contains only English characters, we have used C program to print the document and now we could not use the same C program because of the presence of other language characters in the output (when the old C program is used for printing, the other language characters are printed as junk).
Can anyone update me about the options that are available in C or VB or any other third party printing program to print the documents generated in other language as well as with printer control characters.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Ganesan

Hey Thanks .
Does that mean I will put 1900 as character set in that device type and assign it to printer and then print with that ?
Best
Ganesh

SMARTFORM in Hebrew language

Hello
Anyone has experience in SMARTFORM in Hebrew language
I have a form in EN and for testing i have convert EN text into HE Lang (Tcode:SE63).
When i print this invoice into HE language , SAP Convert the invoice from Right to Left(all the English char) but it works in different way.
Example :
1.
EN : Schindler Nechushtan Elevators Ltd
HE: Ltd Schindler Nechushtan Elevators
2.
EN: Tel: 972 3 7214400 Fax: 972 3 7214405

Do anyone has idea "How it works" and how can i start defined Hebrew forms.
with best regards
Ravi

Hello Gungor
Do you think that for HE i should not translate from SE63 .
I have a form in EN (dev language EN) and from SE63 i convert EN to HE (with all EN).
Now from SE63 , I have a form in HE with English text .
some text is converted from Right to left with strange order
HE --yr.comravi.shankar.tiwary at ch.schindle :E-mail
EN will be : ravi.shankar.tiwary atch.schindler.com
Do you have any example for me how can i handle EN + HE in same form or how can i do it .
do you think that in HE i have to translate the form not through SE63 but to logon in HE and then translate.
With best regards
Ravi

To solve this Basis need to create a new output device type which supports Latin-2 character set (Device type to I2HP4) or change the existing one to support Latin-2 character set.

Error while printing smartforms

Hi Friends,
I am getting error "Invalid value for parameter ARCHDEST" while printing smartforms. This is happening only in IDES server. In Development the same smartform is working normally. I have checked in transaction SU53, to see whether all the authorisations have been given for IDES server. There is no problem in authorisation also. So what might be the reason for this. Please give me the solution to solve this problem.
Thanks & Regards,
Ranjith

Hi Beginner,
In the layout you have taken window or layout taken the big width in that case only you will get this type error syntatically it shows correct when you exicute the smart from try to give the print or see the print preview you will get this error (suggestion is better to check the window sizes)
Thanks
Ashok
