SAP 2007A Fonts in PDF
In the Print Layout Designer, I am using a font Neuzeit S LT Std Book for the sales orders and invoices. The form prints correct. When I save to PDF , select the PD icon on SAP menu, the font Neuzeit S LT Std Book does not show on PD looks like default to aerial.
Anyone have this issue

PDF fonts need its own resource. It is better just using a common font for the report.

Hi everybody !
I'm working on a SAP project and i wish know how to embed a font in a pdf/a file. I can not use common methode to process it. I can not use Acrobat or Microsoft Word in order to embed fonts.
Is anyone knows how can i embed fonts in pdf/a ? i've try to use embedded file stream dictionary and File specification dictionary but it's not allowed in pdf/a.
I read many and many times the PDF Reference 1.4 in order to know how to use font in that file but i did not find something ...
Any ideas ?
Thanks a lot
Noel AdrienHi,
I've not explain my issue enought :
My problem is that i use a standard program from SAP for generating pdf file. Then, i've to create a pdf/a file with this pdf.
And the two last things that i need to complete the file ( in respect with the ISO 19005 ) is managing colors and embed fonts.
Is anyone knows how can i embed fonts in pdf/a file without using any software ? Clearly, what are the changing in the file ?
regards,

Hello
we need to embed our own font "Frutiger" in our AdobeForms.
I installed fonts (TTF) in the Adobe Directory already and
edited XFA.XCI File already but Fonts are not embedded.
I attached a screenshot of the File and the TTF Font.
Any ideas why this is not working ?
BR,
SebastianDear Sebastian,
I checked your PS fonts from folder "Frutiger Next PC PS Single",
please see my steps below:
1) I copied this two folders from "Frutiger Next PC PS Single",
"Condensed" and "Standard" to ADS server folder /usr/sap/
<SID>/SYS/global/AdobeDocumentServices/FontManagerService/fonts/customerMore information you can find in manual:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73ehp1/helpdata/en/4b/95ae9c26f26e83e10000000a421937/content.htm
2) I edited a custom_xfa.xci file (can be a xfa.xci file).
More information in SAP Note: 1815722 - How to embed specific font on
PDF output
3) I created PDF and fonts Frutiger are embedded.
Please check my PDF attached "sample.pdf". You can find there also my
custom_xfa.xci file.
Your question:
Where to find in TTF and PS (*.afm,*.inf, *.pfb) the font name to be
noted in xfa.xci?
Please look at SAP Note 1815722 - How to embed specific font on PDF
output -> Solution -> 1. Find out correct font name
If issue still exist please send to us second time an ADS font trace
information (SAP Note 1717189) and please create a PDF (print preview)
with additional info (template, data, ...) by the note 944221 chapter
"Generated PDF with additional information".
1. Call the Form Builder (transaction SFP).
2. Choose "Utilities -> Settings".
3. In the dialog box, choose the option "Very Detailed Trace" for
"Trace Level" under "Runtime Information".
After that generate the PDF and send to us.
Best regards,

How to embed font into PDF - Listener 2.0.2 FOP configuration
I need to embed custom font into PDF report in order to print one of Slovenian characters: Č (C with caron) This character shows as # sign when I generate standard PDF report using Apex 4.2.2 and Listener 2.0.2. As far as I understand 14 native Adobe PDF fonts are based on Windows 1252 encoding. This encoding doesn't include mentioned Slovenian character.
Oracle White paper http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/learnmore/custom-pdf-reports-1953918.pdf says:
"APEX Listener 2.0.2 supports only the Base-14 fonts. To configure additional fonts, see this document: Apache(tm) FOP: Fonts "
I was able to embed my custom font into standard Apache FOP report server. Solution consist of saving two files my_font.ttf and my_font.xml to server and update of FOP userconfig.xml file (fonts part where path to saved 2 files have to be specified)
How can I do this on Apex Listener 2.0.2 ? Where is located userconfig.xml file?
SimonHello Ivaylo Mutafchiev,
There is no way we can control the fonts in the created PDF / while creating the PDF using the class cl_document_bcs in your PDF creation logic.
You can try some other approach of creating PDF from the Smartforms OTF stream data .
Try using the follosing FM for the PDF creation and sending email:
CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF
CONVERT_OTF_AND_MAIL
SO_OBJECT_SEND
CONVERT_OTF_AND_MAIL_NEW (Try this but this FM still uses the class that you are using currently. But give it a try and see the results)
Hope this answers your question.
Thanks,

SAP GUI 7.10 PDF toolbar
Hello,
We have a user that recently have updated is SAP GUI for Windows from 6.40 to 7.10
Before this upgrade he could open from SAP Client invoices in PDF format and in the launbched embeded pdf viewer he has some aditional toolbar with buttons that allow him to modify that document. He has installed Adobe Acrobat 9 pro that may allow him to creaste and modify pdf documents.
This aditional toolbar have disappear after SAP GUI for Windows upgrade.
He can save the document from embeded pdf viewer and reopen it with Acrobat 9 pro and then he can see that missing toolbar options.
Does anyone know why now he can't modify, because he has not that aditional toolbar buttons, generated pdf documents from SAP GUI for Windows 7.10?
Thanks in advance,

Fonts in pdf files show as squares
My new lion imac renders some fonts in pdf files as squares. I trensferred applications and setting from my old snow leopard macbook which was working ok. Problem appears in preview, skim, filemaker but not in adobe reader. Seems like the lion pdf renderer is not working correctly?
It seems that the problem is with good old Helvetica. Acrobat Professional identifies the "boxed" fonts as:
Helvetica
Type: Type 1
Encoding: Ansi
Actual Font: Helvetica
Actual Font Type: TrueType
According to FontBook, this Helvetica is installed on my system:
PostScript name Helvetica
Full name Helvetica

I guess there is a Helvetica mix-up. The PDF seems to contain a Type 1 version, which is substituted with the standard Apple system Helvetica dfont version, but they don't match.
This is indeed a long-standing problem, not really Lion specific. But I would have thought that by now it would have been solved. Why all those conflicting font formats and encodings anyway? What a mess this is! -

Bank File Generation Error - Payment Engine - SAP 2007A PL 45
Hi All,
I face below error while generatinga bank file. I have no idea why it would happen.
I am using SAP 2007A PL45 and Payments engine add-on v 8.00.00.45
Any idea / help would be much appreciated.

Error while calling plug-in...Hi,
A possible reason of the error : Payment reference number should not be empty for AP invoice 1
may be that you have not input Supplier Ref. No for some documents(such as AP invoices)
Supplier Ref. No is not a mandatory field for AP invoice,but it is a mandatory filed when you run the payment engine for those AP invoices.
Please check all the AP invoices used in this payment one by one and make sure to input the Supplier Ref. No for every AP invoice.
Check in the TEST enviorment and see if it helps.

Unable to view OCR FONT in PDF preview
Hi,
I am working on XML Publisher report. I have developed an RTF, in which i have number whose font is OCRA. When i preview the rtf as PDF, the number doesn't show the font as OCR, it displays the number in a different font.
So can you please help me why is this happening? and how can i display OCR FONT in pdf.
Thanks.Thanks for your time.
Yes i was trying on my desktop, but now i have been able to display/preview OCR font in PDF output.
To do this,
I downlaoded OCR FONT to my client computer.
In the template, go to custom properties (File/Properties/Custom) and add the following property for each special font:
Name: xdo-font.<font display name>.normal.normal
Value: truetype.<font path and file name>
Example 1
xdo-font.OCR A Extended.normal.normal
truetype.C:\WinNT\Fonts\OCRAEXT.TTF
Example 2
xdo-font.IDAutomationMICR.normal.normal
truetype./u204/custom/12.0.0/others/IDAutomationMICR.ttf.
The above solution worked for me only in case of previewing pdf output from template on my client machine, it dint worked form applications because i haven't installed the font on Linux/Apps server.
I now have to figure it out to get it work from Applications. So please let me know if you know any solution on the steps to follow to download/install the fonts on server to have it effective from applications.
I appreciate your help and time.
Thanks. -
Convert SAP spool output to PDF
I have created program running in background to convert SAP spool output to PDF using function CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF .
It has been working fine untill I have SAP spool contained > 99 pages. It has a dialog pop up asking to run it in background.
If I clicked YES, the function generated another background job and another spool.
Also the returned table PDF contained no data.
But it is ok when click NO. The program can generate PDF file.
My problem is I want to set this program as job, so it will not generate PDF file when SAP spool contained > 99 pages.
Has anyone experienced about this problem? or know how to convert to PDF from SAP spool (>99 pages)?
Thank you in Advance.Hi,
Use the FM convert_otfspooljob_2_pdf
see this link for example Re: Download in PDF format
"Do not use CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF for script or Smartforms

1. Can I create PDFs of documents that use fonts (that were installed in my Macintosh upon installation of Adobe Creative Suite CS5) for creating proofs for client approval and for sending to supplier for output?
The same applies to all fonts either licensed from Adobe (typically via adobe.com) or licensed via being bundled with Adobe applications. All these fonts have at least preview and print embedding privileges which means you can embed the fonts in PDF (or EPS) files and redistribute the resultant PDF (or EPS) files without any limitation for personal or commercial purposes. Obviously, you cannot redistribute the raw font files!

Cant get the font on PDF document and alignment
I cant get the font on PDF document and alignment eventhough I have margins to 0 still getting some space from the top and left side.
I have added fonts to CF Admin and restarted too still same issue. I am able to see fonts are added in CF Admin.I suspect there is a little bit of padding between the HTML content and the edge of the PDF page. You could solve the problem by specifying the fonts and margins using the HTML style property, like this, for example:
<cfdocument format="PDF" pageType="A4" marginBottom="0" marginLeft="0" marginRight="0" marginTop="0">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<style>
body{font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:100%;margin-top: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding: 0;}
p{font-family:"Times New Roman", Times, serif;font-size:14px}
</style>
</head>

EMBEDDING POSTSCRIPT FONTS INTO PDFS
Used Quark Xpress 3.31 on Windows 98/Millenium/2000, made ps file, distilled to PDF. Worked great. All fonts embedded in PDF. Files worked great for prepress. Can't update Quark because of maths program I use that won't work on later Quark versions and can’t get math program upgrade. Trying to update to Windows XP. With XP postscript fonts will not embed in PDFs via Quark 3.31/Acrobat Distiller 4. Fonts will only show in Courier on PDF, although using Word same fonts will distill and show in PDF preferences/fonts list – so fonts are working. Have tried Universal Document Converter 5.3 as straight PDF converter. Fonts show on PDF but not showing as fonts embedded in preferences/fonts in PDF. Trying Adobe Acrobat Pro 10 but does not seem to work either. I think it is an issue with Quark 3.31 and later Windows platforms. Any suggestions out there on problem/solution? I may have to be stuck in the middle ages with software. Thanks
I may have to be stuck in the middle ages with software
People have the best experience when their application software, their OS software and their hardware are moving forward together. But you've pretty much just stuck with what you have for the past 16 years.
I'd guess that the problem is that QuarkXPress 3.31 (which came out in 1996, according to Wikipedia) is probably incompatible with Windows XP (which came out in 2001).
Either you stick with what you have or you'll have to replace all your software. Assuming you want to stick with QuarkXPress, you'll have to find new math software which works with a later version of QuarkXPress. This will then require you to probably upgrade your hardware and update your Windows software. Since you waited so long, this will take some work.
