SAP Script BARCODE resize

Hi ,
I am using the standard BArcode BC_EANH (EAN128) in an SAP script.
am converting a string of 25 charaters to this format. But the printed barcode is too wide around 10.4 cm.
Is there any way to reduce the width of the printed Barcode.? i.e to resize the width.
I have tried the SE73 -> System barcodes option and reduced the width.. but still its the same.
Regards,
Mid.

Hi
Check this and also the Barcode printer
Set the character format for that field that u have to print as barcode.
for that create a new smartstyle and in that create a character format as barcode.
SM73 ->system bar code ->Create new bar code format
then go to smartstyles and use this barcode format for the character format.
check this link for more info

SAP Script: Barcode printing in Local Win. Printer

Hi All,
In SAP Script, I have used Barcode format to print a Number.
When I issue the Print output by selecting the Configured SAP network printer, The barcodes are properly printed.
but When i select the "Local windows printer" (which has barcode printing facility) option i.e Device type: SAPWIN, the Barcodes are not getting printed.
I have Specified that Network printer as my Default Windows printer, but still when we give "Local printer" the Barcodes does not print.
But for the same network printer when i select it from the List of SAP printers, the barcodes are printed.
Please suggest why barcodes are not getting printed when we give "local windows printer" as the Print device.
Does the same issue also happens for Smart forms?

SAP SCRIPT Barcode Printing Issues

Hi ,
I'm printing 3of9 , barcode in sap script, which has width of 1CM and height of 1CM, the problem is once it's printed, barcode is being printed at higher position than it's supposed to be and creating alignment issues and also introduces blank lines in between .
Has any opne faced this problem , and how to over come this.
Regards,
Raghavendra

With SAPscript, barcodes are produced only by each printer (according to BarSimm or whatever technology you use). The preview is just an approximation made by SAP. So, you must trust your printer and adapt your SAPscript until it prints correctly.

SMARTFORM, SAP SCRIPT + BARCODE

Hi All,

SAP Script barcode

HI Friends,
I want to add barcode in SAPScript.I already made one Z barcode in T.code se73.
I also assign in se71 barcode in character formats.
So please check it.and tell me how we can display barcode in sap script.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
To Create a Bar code prefix:
1) Go to T-code - SPAD -> Full Administration -> Click on Device Type -> Double click the device for which you wish to create the print control -> Click on Print Control tab ->Click on change mode -> Click the plus sign to add a row or prefix say SBP99 (Prefix must start with SBP) -> save you changes , it will ask for request -> create request and save
2) Now when you go to SE73 if you enter SBP00 for you device it will add the newly created Prefix
Create a character format C1.Assign a barcode to the character format.Check the check box for the barcode.
The place where you are using the field value use like this
<C1> &itab-field& </C1>.
You will get the field value in the form of barcode.
Which barcode printer are you using ? Can you download this file and see.
http://www.servopack.de/Files/HB/ZPLcommands.pdf.
It will give an idea about barcode commands.

Detailed information about SAP Barcodes
A barcode solution consists of the following:
- a barcode printer
- a barcode reader
- a mobile data collection application/program
A barcode label is a special symbology to represent human readable information such as a material number or batch number
in machine readable format.
There are different symbologies for different applications and different industries. Luckily, you need not worry to much about that as the logistics supply chain has mostly standardized on 3 of 9 and 128 barcode symbologies - which all barcode readers support and which SAP support natively in it's printing protocols.
You can print barcodes from SAP by modifying an existing output form.
Behind every output form is a print program that collects all the data and then pass it to the form. The form contains the layout as well as the font, line and paragraph formats. These forms are designed using SAPScript (a very easy but frustratingly simplistic form format language) or SmartForms that is more of a graphical form design tool.
Barcodes are nothing more than a font definition and is part of the style sheet associated with a particular SAPScript form. The most important aspect is to place a parameter in the line of the form that points to the data element that you want to represent as barcode on the form, i.e. material number. Next you need to set the font for that parameter value to one of the supported barcode symbologies.

Hi,
You will need to install a barcode dll to you SAPlpd to be able to print barcodes in this way. There are a number of software providers for barcode dlls, you can find these by searching google (or similar) with SAP barcode dll.

How to print a Barcode VERTICALLY in a SAP Script ?

Dear Experts..
I have to print a Barcode <b>vertically</b> in a SAP Script.
Could you please help me regarding this.
Thanks in advance.

Hey SR,
follow these steps :
Bar code in Smartform :
General definition of Bar code:
Bar codes are standardized characters of a symbol made up of a group of lines and spaces that can be recognized by an optical scanner. Bar codes uniquely identify article data, production numbers or transport units, for example. They can also contain additional information such as batch number, expiration date or weight.
Example
In the Logistics Execution System (LES), certain field entries can be represented by bar codes and printed on the transfer documents. This simplifies certain data entry processes such as order confirmation.
Type of bar code:
Bar codes are based on a binary principle and consist of a series of stripes/gaps of different widths. The sequence of the stripes or gaps results in an (alpha) numeric statement. Bar codes are read optically. Due to varying requirements, bar codes may differ with regard to the following aspects:
     printer tolerance
     decoding tolerance
     character width
     automatic check
     number of characters
Steps to implement bar code in the smartform:
     Use the transaction code smartstyle. Give a suitable name .Choose create.
     In change mode of the Smart Style select the Character formats node and choose Create.
     In the Character format field enter a two-character character key.
     Select the desired attributes of the Bar Code on the tab Standard Settings.
     Choose Activate.
     Assign the character format to the field or character string in the smartform.
     Activate the smartform.
     Test the same.

Kunal.

then you need your own printprogram and everything is fine. with open_form ; start_form ; write_form; end_form
you can communicate direct with the Datamax Programming Language from SAPScript to the Barcode printer.
i also have the datamax programmers manual as pdf if you want i could send it to you. let me know by PM.
also have look into HW 490295 the bartender Solution works fine for me to create the SO10 text's

SAP Script - resize window / paragraph

Hello Gurus,
I have two problems related to sap script. ( ver 4.6c)
I have copied the original order confirmation form from 000 client in diff.languages like FR/DE/EN ( these forms are used by diff. offices in diff. location ) now we have to create a form for our china office location so I copied an existing form ( FR language) to language ZH.
a. I cannot resize or move the window of the form ZH, to do this I have to convert the original laguage to ZH ( original language of the form is FR) , to change the original language I have to edit the FR language form and use the utilities->convert org.lang option , my question is if I do this process what will happen to our FR language settings users? or is there anyother way to do this ( move or resize window ) without disturbing other forms.
b. I am using two paragraph settings for printing the item line in the order form, ex. ZZ and IS , if I use IS the item line appears but for ZZ there is no item lines printed on the form. ( blank ) What could be the problem for using ZZ Par.format.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks and best regards,
A drop in an Ocean

Try to identify the original language of the SAPscript.
EX: GOTO SE71, give your form name and language ZH. select radio button Header and click change.
under adminstrative data, identify the original language. EX: if original language is DE
GO back to SE71, now give your form name and key in language as DE. Modify all windows here.. i.e. re-size etc., it will automatically gets changed in your ZH language. Also you can create new paragraph formats or change existing paragraph formats here using original language. you can see all changes in form ZH.
If you want to re-size in "ZH" itself .. try to change original language to ZH.
I guess, this info will help you to close the thread.

These forms are designed using SAPScript (a very easy but frustratingly simplistic form format language) or SmartForms that is more of a graphical form design tool.
Barcodes are nothing more than a font definition and is part of the style sheet associated with a particular SAPScript form. The most important aspect is to place a parameter in the line of the form that points to the data element that you want to represent as barcode on the form, i.e. material number. Next you need to set the font for that parameter value to one of the supported barcode symbologies.
The next part of the equation can be a bit tricky as you will need to get a printer to print that barcode font. Regular laser printers does not normally print barcode fonts, only specialized industrial printers that is specifically designed to support that protocol and that uses specialized label media and heat transfer (resin) ribbon to create the sharp image required for barcodes.
Not to fear though, there are two ways to get around this:
- You can have your IT department do some research -
most laser printers can accept a font cartridge/dimm chip (similar to computer memory), called a BarDIMM that will allow a laser printer to support the printing of barcodes.
- Secondly, you can buy software that you can upload in your SAP print Server that will convert the barcode symbology as an image that will print on a regular laser printer. I found that this option results in less sharper barcodes. This option is really if you need to convert a large quantity of printers (>10) to support barcodes.
- Thirdly, you can buy a third party software like Barcode.dll and install on your frontend PC connected to the laser printer.
Now you have a barcode printed - what next?
Well there are two options, depending on your business requirements:
- You can use an existing SAP transaction on a regular workstation and get a barcode wedge reader to hook up between the keyboard and the PC. These wedge readers comes in a wand or scanner format. There are even wireless wedge scanners available that allows you to roam a few yards from the workstation to scan a label. This approach is mostly used where you want to prevent human errors in typing in long material, batch or serial numbers in receiving or issuing of material. The problem is that it's just replacing the keyboard input and you are basically locked down in one location and have to bring all the material to that location to process.
- Another solution is to use SAPConsole transactions
or write your own ABAP Dialog programs that will fit onto a barcode enabled wireless handheld terminal and that will follow the business logic as executed on the shop floor.
These programs are highly complex exercises in industrial engineering and ergonomics because of the limited screen sizes and limited ability to accept keyboard input. The user is instructed step-by-step and only scan and push F-keys to interact with the SAP system. Scan, scan, beep, beep, enter - highly automated.
