Hi all,
This is to inform that I have myself found the solution. It is possible to print matrix report in condensed mode. The method for printing is same as for any other report. The mistake I made was not checking whether the .prt file is getting referred correctly. The DESFORMAT system parameter was getting populated through the calling form. By referring to the correct .prt file the problem got fixed.

Hi Gokul Borse
For Lable printing better u can use the Sap Sprint method S,
1. First configure the printer any one of the Pc or Server( windows os). in that just install the Saps-print server which is available in the service market place.
2. In SAP T code SPAD setting Device type :EPESCP,
                                               Host Spool Access method - S Print Using SAP Protocol
                                                Host Printer name - ( In which pc running Sap S print server one that printer name)
                                             Destination host - (Ip address or DNS Name for the PC or Server in which the SAP S print server running)
Try this

Print landscape report in character mode

Hi!
It seems that I should change xxx.prt file in DESFORMAT parameter to match different kinds of printers in order to print landscape report in character mode.
Our customers are international wide. How can I do to make this setting meet every customer for printing reports in landscape style?
We will run the reports on Unix on the middle tier and customers read them in browser.
Thanks for help.

Hi,
This sounds like a similar problem that I had (and still having). It was (is) a Bug. Go to metalink.oracle.com and reference this bug#1413754. See if this is your problem as well. My only work around was change the format of the file instead of using character mode I am now using PDF. Which is working fine for me.

How to print the script in condensed mode

Hi to all,
Pls help me.
How to print the script in condensed mode and particular window only print in the condensed mode.

Hi,
Hi
It will remove the blank spaces in front of the variable
and if you use the extension NO-GAPS
It will remove all the blank spaces in the variable field.
DATA: ws_val1 type char12.
ws_val1 = ' 100 123'.
Condense ws_val1.
Write / ws_val1.
Condense ws_val1 no-gaps.
write / ws_val1.
It will give output as
100 123
100123
The CONDENSE statement deletes redundant spaces from a string:
CONDENSE c NO-GAPS.
This statement removes any leading blanks in the field c and replaces other sequences of blanks by exactly one blank. The result is a left-justified sequence of words, each separated by one blank. If the addition NO-GAPS is specified, all blanks are removed.
Please check this link for sample code.

Get a Report crashed error while running report using the mode character

Hello,
I'am getting an "Enable to run report - Report as crashde" issue only when I'am running reports using the mode character. The same report with desformat pdf never has any problems. I have changed the englife (set to one) increase the cachesize but I still have the same issue.
I'm using report 6i and Oracle 8i.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Laurent.

Hi Thanks for the response,
In fact the report in character mode is working fine in my environnement but is not working on my customer environnement (which is supposed to be the same as mine). I was thinking of cache size issue or something like this ?
