Problem when transform a smartform to pdf

Hi all:
When I run the program to dispaly pdf transformed from smartform,
the IE explorer is busy dead, have you ever met the same problem?
thank you very much

Interesting!
the article would appear to be wrong!
You don't need to call this FM at all - indeed - as it is only called with exporting parameters it is not going to change your form at all!
in the code:
lt_otfdata[] = lv_ssf_output-otfdata[].
call function 'SSFCOMP_PDF_PREVIEW'
exporting
i_otf = lt_otfdata
exceptions
convert_otf_to_pdf_error = 1
cntl_error = 2
others = 3.
if sy-subrc <> 0.
message id sy-msgid type sy-msgty number sy-msgno
with sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
endif.
data: l_dummy type standard table of tline,
pdf_data type xstring,
pdf_size type i.
remove the section:
call function 'SSFCOMP_PDF_PREVIEW'
exporting
i_otf = lt_otfdata
exceptions
convert_otf_to_pdf_error = 1
cntl_error = 2
others = 3.
if sy-subrc <> 0.
message id sy-msgid type sy-msgty number sy-msgno
with sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
endif.
hopefully you can now generate your PDF.
Let us know if you have any further problems.

Formatting problem when transform to PDF

Hi all,
I've found a problem with program RSTXPDFT4 and functions CONVERT_ABAPSPOOL ... and CONVERT_OTFSPOOL...
I want to convert to PDF the spool generated by a report using "classic" list programming (write and so on).
Output format is x_65_132, which is ok while I'm in SAPGUI, but when transforming it with report RSTXPDFT4, I get a PDF file in a x_65_80 (I think) format, so I'm having half of my list cut.
I've searched for notes and forums, and I found nothing about this.
Any Ideas? Is this a limitation of these FM's? Is there any other way of converting a list spool into PDF?
Thanks in advance,
Rafa

Hi all,
yesterday I went home and I tried the same in the MIniWas I have installed in my laptop, and the result was exactly the same!!
The test I made was: run a program in online mode, generate a spool request, and then use standard program RSTXPDFT4 to convert this request into a PDF file.
The report is defined as 65 x 132 (which should be landscape), but the PDF file appears in portrait (65 x 80 I presume).
I think the problem is in the funcions CONVERTxxx_SPOOLJOBxxx.
Did anybody have this problem? Should I think that it's not possible to convert list output spools to PDF???
Here is the code I used at home in the report.

Problem to convert a Smartform a PDF

Hello everybody,
I revised the forum and found several solutions to this. But I have the following problem: when execute the functions that transforms Smartforms to PDF in R3 this generates BinField good. But when I run the model from WebDynpro and attempted access to the field BinFile (returns for model) I get this error:
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: -1
It's as if the data is not in the field, as if the function dont get it. But when I run into R3 works fine.
I'm doing next to initialize the model structure:
Zbapi_Wty_Print_Claim_Input BapiWtyPrintClaim =
new Zbapi_Wty_Print_Claim_Input();
wdContext.nodeZbapi_Wty_Print_Claim_Input().bind(BapiWtyPrintClaim);
Someone knows how to solve this?

Problems when i copy text from Pdf and paste on Word

In Pdf documente the text is in perfect conditions, but, when i copy the text and paste in WORD document the character change into random crazy character like: "()*"*&!(!*"(!"(!)"( )*"()!*("!&("@*")(!*@"!*@(
how i fix this??

I have the same problem when copying the PDF into a Word file. I tried Save as RTF doc. and it is still just symbols.
It could be a font problem, because it has some weird Gill Sans and Futura fonts. I am sending a picture as an example.
The option of exporting as Tiff and then applying OCR is interesting but still is kind of slow when i have a 100 pages document. If the fonts is the problem is there any way i could select the whole text and apply it a known font like Arial?
Thanks for any info!
Cheers,
Sebastian

Link problem when converting MS Word to PDF with Acrobat Professional

Hello all,
I have the following problem:
When I have a MS Word document with links to other files inside and I convert it to PDF the links are converted from relative paths to absolute paths.
The problem is created by Acrobat as the links in the MS Word file are relative (I have checked this by moving the different docs to another directory and confirmed that the links still work after the move).
How can I make the paths in the PDF relative again? I know there is a plugin from Evermap (and I can confirm this works) but I do not want to use this plugin (=read: spend another $190 dollars) as the license for the Acrobat Professional is expensive enough . Is there a way I can convert the paths within Adobe Acrobat easily? Or better: can I adjust the settings in Acrobat to a new standard when all converted documents contain relative paths?
Backgroundinfo:
- Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional
- Windows XP (SP2)
- MS Word 2002
Thanks in advance!
Bart

Dear Steve,
I have tried what u suggested: I put all the documents (word + linked documents) into the same folder on the local-drive (C). Then I recreated the links in the word document to be sure they were matching. After that I converted the word document to an PDF and confirmed the links were still working in the PDF document.
Then the biggest challenge: copying the pdf and linked documents to another drive&directory. As you can guess: Unfortunately the links did not work anymore.
Any other suggestions?
If I use the Evermap-tool (30 day-trial) I can look at the links and this is how it is 'coded' in the pdf.
first link: ../../../../test/link_a.pdf
second link: ../../../../test/link_b.pdf
and yes this will work if you put the documents in the directory test in the root of the local-drive but not in a different subdirectory.
Anyone ideas?
Grtz,
Bart

White border problem when zooming with SWF in PDF

Hi Everyone,
I have posted my original querry in the Indesign forum:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5176893#5176893
I'm having problems with zooming whedn trying to create a PDF with SWF inserted.. at certain levels of zoom I get a white border on the left and right of the document which squashes the content into the middle and makes it a little pixelated. I also get a thin white border on the right when zooming out. Does anyone have any ideas where I might be going wrong?
Thanks,
Em

Not wishing to be rude, but that workflow is not supposed to be used that way.
InDesign's ability to export SWFs is intended for showing the file in a Web page, and Acrobat's ability to embed SWFs is only intended for small annotations placed within the pages of a conventional PDF file. By placing the entire Layout as a SWF you are in effect playing the entire thing as a movie in Flash Player - all the advantages of the PDF format are completely lost, there is no vector-rendering of any content or text, and users will find it very hard to understand what's going on (the navigation buttons in Acrobat or Reader will not work, text is not searchable or accessible, multiple pages cannot be printed, etc.).
It's not entirely trivial to do this 'correctly', as at the moment we don't have full support in the PDF standard for all the interactive features that InDesign can apply to page objects - that's why they are grouped into PDF and non-PDF in the various selection menus in InDesign. Rather than saving as a SWF you should be using Export to Interactive PDF, and ensuring that the various interactive items and media are all selected on the export dialog.
Basic stuff such as links and video will export just fine that way, and the PDF will preserve everything else in the Layout as native text or graphics so it'll look fine, navigate properly and be searchable. Animations and buttons will not work as expected, so you may have to revise their behavior if PDF is your intended output destination.

Problem With Converting PO Smartform into PDF

Hi All,
I am trying to email the Smartform PO. I developed the program after reading several discuusions and blogs in forum. The PO is successfully created in PDF format and stored in the local directory. When i tried to view the pdf the PO is creatd twice in the PDF. I mean the original pdf is of 3 pages with PO and terms and conditons. But in the pdf which was created it has 6 pages. I am unable to understand why it has 2 copies of same PO.
When i tried to email the pdf as attachement the email is delivered successfully. But when i tried to view the pdf its given an error that "the file is corrupted (For example the attachemnt is not coded properly)or the fle type is not supported. Even in the attachment also i have the two files one is of pdf another is also of the .pdf but the image is showing as Unknown file format.
Any suggestions to resolve these issues.
Thanks

Problem when transform command is invoked in a dialog

Hi friends
I´m having a problem with the script UI. I tried various things to correct but I´m not able to get sucess.
The code in the script is correct. The problem is: when I run the script and click the "execute" button...Photoshop would need to execute the "Transform" function it is called and would allow me to freely transform the selected layer.
BUT...it does not allow me to drag the axis of bounding boxes to transform. This is because Photoshop is understanding my dialog box UI is still active, ---even calling dlg.close()--- (and I cannot transform since a dialog box is active).
See it:
function transform(){
var desc = new ActionDescriptor();
var ref = new ActionReference();
ref.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID('Lyr '), charIDToTypeID('Ordn'), charIDToTypeID('Trgt') );
desc.putReference( charIDToTypeID('null'), ref );
desc.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID('FTcs'), charIDToTypeID('QCSt'), charIDToTypeID('Qcsa') );
var desc2 = new ActionDescriptor();
desc2.putUnitDouble( charIDToTypeID('Hrzn'), charIDToTypeID('#Rlt'), 0.000000 );
desc2.putUnitDouble( charIDToTypeID('Vrtc'), charIDToTypeID('#Rlt'), 0.000000 );
desc.putObject( charIDToTypeID('Ofst'), charIDToTypeID('Ofst'), desc2 );
desc.putUnitDouble( charIDToTypeID('Hght'), charIDToTypeID('#Prc'), 100.001);
try{ executeAction( charIDToTypeID('Trnf'), desc, DialogModes.ALL ); }catch(e){};
var dlg = new Window ("dialog", "Processamento de imagens v10", [0,0,0,0])
dlg.size = [120,120]
dlg.center ()
var run = dlg.add ("button", [0,0,0,0], "Executar")
run.size = [80,30]
run.location = [30,40]
run.onClick = function (){
    dlg.close()
    var doc = app.activeDocument
    var layer = doc.activeLayer
    layer.isBackgroundLayer = false
    transform()
dlg.show()
What Am I missing?
Photoshop does not accept Window of type ("palette") so I do not know how to handle it
Thank you for the help
Best Regards
Gustavo.

You can not have more than one modal dialogs running at once. The scriptUI dialog is modal and so is your transform function. All you can do for this example is move the transform line to after the dlg.show(); line.
Photoshop does have a 'palette' window but because it is non-modal it is really only useful for progressbars or other 'please wait' messages. For the example you posted if it were a palette the script would not stop at dlg.show() and wait for the user to do something. It would try to run the next line and, not finding one, end. At best you would only see the window flash before the script finished.

Problem When Multiple Users Export To PDF Simultaneously

I am hoping someone out there can help. We have had no luck at all with Crystal Reports / SAP support for this issue.
We have a client/server aplication and have written a C# program to load a crystal report on the server, export it to PDF and then we send the PDF to the client. We are using Crystal Reports 2008 and have applied SP4.
The scenario is as follows:
Two users log into our application from different PC's.
User 1 prints a report with no issue.
User 2 prints a report 5 seconds later with no issue.
If User 1 prints a report and while that report is being exported to PDF, User 2 prints a report, the first will be successful and the second will fail. If User 2 reprints the report after receiving a failure, the report prints successfully the second time (using the same temp report folders as the previous attempt). We have done a lot of tracing and have narrowed the problem down to the point in out C# program when the cryRpt.Export() routine is called. It seems to be what is failing and doesn't seem to be able to run 2 exports simultaneously.
All exporting to PDF occurs on the application server and the processes run as "Administrator" so permissions should certainly not be a problem. Each user is printing a different physical .rpt file and the data for each report is in a different physical directory.
Has anyone come across this before or have any suggestions?

We thought the same thing as you suggest and have already made that change without sucess. Below is what the code looks like for our export routine. Perhaps you can spot something we have not. As mentioned before the export appears to be faulting at the statement "cryRpt.ExportToDisk(ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat, pdfname);" in the below code.
The code is as follows:
        public void exportReport(string xmldir, string crname, string pdfname, string termid, bool debug)
            try
                if (debug)
                    dt = DateTime.Now;
                    tw.WriteLine(dt.ToString() + "-Start exportReport: " + crname);
                ReportDocument cryRpt;
                cryRpt = new ReportDocument();
                cryRpt.Load(crname, OpenReportMethod.OpenReportByTempCopy);
                if (debug)
                    tw.WriteLine("Done loading report: " + crname);
                int tmpct = 0;
                int tmpint = crname.IndexOf("
", tmpct);
                while (tmpint != -1)
                    tmpct = tmpint;
                    tmpint = crname.IndexOf("
", tmpct + 1);
                string ODBCReportFileName = crname.Substring(tmpct + 1, crname.Length - tmpct - 5);
                if (debug)
                    tw.WriteLine("ODBC Report Filename: " + ODBCReportFileName);
                Database crDatabase;

                ConnectionInfo crConnectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();
                //Setup the connection information structure to log on to the data source for the report.
                // If using ODBC, this should be the DSN. If using OLEDB, etc, this should be the physical server name
                crConnectionInfo.ServerName = "SH" + ODBCReportFileName;
                if (debug)
                    tw.WriteLine("Resetting connection to: " + crConnectionInfo.ServerName);
                crConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = "";
                //Get the table information from the report
                crDatabase = cryRpt.Database;
                crTables = crDatabase.Tables;
                //Loop through all tables in the report and apply the
                //connection information for each table.
                if (debug)

Problem On Editing a Smartform in PDF with Chinese

Hello,
we are using SRM and in a specific transaction we are generating a SAP message wich is editing a form for the PO.
When we want to edit it on SRM in chinese we have problem with a lot of ### ans everything wich doesn't mean anything.
To generate the form we are using function 'CONVERT_OTF'.
No idea of what to do.
Thanks for help

Hi Eileen,
Since you want to create a chinese PDF form, which font types are you using in the styles? If you are not using CNSONG, please try this font.
If this still does not work, then you will be needing to install true type fonts supported by adobe through SE73 and use those fonts in the smartstyles.
Hope this helps you

Problem when zooming in on a PDF in iBooks

In iBooks, when pinching to zoom in on (enlarge) a section of certain PDFs, entire square or rectangular sections of the document go completely black or white, rendering that portion unreadable until I zoom back out. Sometimes, leaving iBooks and then returning fixes the problem, only to resurface on another page of the document. Sometimes nothing fixes it and I just have to quit iBooks and hope it doesn't resurface on next launch. See the screencaps below.

I have this same problem and it's been drving me nuts for months.
Any solutions appreciated, guys.

Button problems when including a video. (interactive PDF)

I am having issues when exporting my interactive PDF from In-design. On a specific page with a video included, the buttons with actions to next and previous page do not seem transition to the next page like they do throughout the rest of the PDF. It barely responds at all, if I click it over and over it sometimes goes to the next page but its not a smooth transition. I am using the latest adobe acrobat pro to view the PDF. If anyone has an answer to this problem it was be a massive help.
Cheers
Kyle

There´s something you can do, but you will need Acrobat for that.
That dotted line is a preference element called Focus Rectangle, you can hide it manually in Preferences > Forms > Show Focus Rectangle (Uncheck) or you can add one line of javascript to document level or for instance page 1 (if you change it in your preferences, only you will see the effect naturally), so javascript method is probably better in your case.
If you want to add that javasctript to page 1, simply open thumbnails panel, select page 1 thumb and choose Page Properties from panel menu. Go to Actions tab and choose Run Javascript and click Add. Then paste....
app.focusRect = false;
....to Javascript editor and click OK (few times, until you are back in page view). No your user will run that javascript command everytime he/she opens the page 1 and hides that dotted Focus Rectangle....

Crystal report align problem when printing or converting to PDF

If i need to export my report to PDF. In Crystal Report Viewer the Alignment are perfect.. But when i export into PDF the Alignment changed entirely..
what to do..
thanks

Let's start with :
1) version of CR
2) And CR Service packs or fixes applied?
3) Version of .NET
4) Do you see the issue in both the CR Designer and at runtime?
