Retrieve mail pdf attachment in xstrinf or otf format.

Question

Hi,
as in the Subjesct I must retrieve from mail the attachments that are in pdf format and convert then in xstring or otf format, then archive the documents in DMS server.
It's possible?
Thanks for answers.

Hi,
In SAP we execute function SX_OBJECT_CONVERT_OTF_PDF which generates binary context for a PDF document.
Or check the below code
data: l_pdf_xstring  type xstring,
        lt_lines       type table of tline,
        ls_line        type tline,
        l_pdf_len      type i,
        itab           type TSFOTF,
        witab          type ITCOO,
        tmp_line       type STRING,
        tmp_header     type STRING.
  tmp_header = 'BSP to PDF'.
  tmp_line = file_content.
  CONCATENATE
    tmp_header
    tmp_line
  INTO tmp_line IN CHARACTER MODE.
  APPEND tmp_line TO itab.
  call function 'CONVERT_OTF'
       exporting
         format                      = 'PDF'
       importing
         bin_filesize                = l_pdf_len
         bin_file                    = l_pdf_xstring
      tables
         otf                         = itab
         lines                       = lt_lines
       exceptions
         err_max_linewidth           = 1
         err_format                  = 2
         err_conv_not_possible       = 3
         err_bad_otf                 = 4
         others                      = 5
  if sy-subrc EQ 0.
    response->set_header_field( name  = 'content-type'
                                value = 'application/pdf' ).
    response->set_header_field(
                       name  = 'cache-control'
                       value = 'max-age=0' ).
      response->set_header_field(
                         name  = 'content-disposition'
                         value = 'attachment; filename=test.pdf' ).
    l_pdf_len = xstrlen( l_pdf_xstring ).
    response->set_data( data   = l_pdf_xstring
                        length = l_pdf_len ).
    navigation->response_complete( ).
  ENDIF.
