Hi,
In the Name of the graphics pass a variable, say SIGNNO
Populate this variable with the authorized signature number.
Already the image should be uploaded in se78 with the same authorized signature number.
Hope this is clear.

How to Print Digital Signature in Smart forms.

Hi Experts,
Any one please help me how to use digital signatures in SMARTFORMS.?
Which are the tables used to store digital signatures and please any one have any demo program which prints the the digital signature using smartforms kindly let me know.
Thanks,
Sunil kairam.

Hi Sunil,
After doing some research in sdn and other sources i found the following result...
Digital Signatures are nothing but graphics that we can store in SAP and use in our Smart Forms.
For Example you can create a .bmp file of your signatures, upload it via SE78, and then use it in your Smart Forms in your Footer Area as "Authorized Signatory".
The Logic in the Print Program can be something as follows -
1. Maintain a Z Table having fields like PLANT, FORMID (Name of the SmartForm), USERID.
2. Before calling the Form, the validation is made for the Logged in User with the Z Table created.
3. If the User Entry exists in the Z-Table, the Form is called and the Signature Image is displayed in the Footer Block i.e. the Authorized Signature.
4. If user entry does not exist in the Z-Table then the message is displayed "You are not the Authorized for Printing the Form" and exits the Transaction.

Smart Forms with editable fields and signature field provided by Webdynpro ABAP

Hi,
i've created an interactive smart form.. Everything fine. The preview of the adobe livecycle designer looks excellent, every field is editable, the signaturefield is signable...
But when i try to test my form using transaction SE80 i'll get a pdf without any signable field, without any editable textfield and so on
I've used the standard printer ZPDF1 for that purpose. (PDF1)
Every value provided by the interface is displayed correctly in the pdf , but no field offers the possibility to change values anymore the pdf looks like a real printed document.
I want to build a webdynpro application where the user gets a pdf in the last step, where he or she is able to edit single values in the prefilled PDF and afterwards to sign this document with his/her digital certificate...
hope you could help me
kind regards
christian

solved by myself.

Standard text in Smart forms

Hi ,
           Im using the standard text in smart forms, but Im getting the output displayed as hexadecimal numbers. These are the hexa characters stored in the "SO10" transaction for the standard text name.
I try to display a signature stored in standard text.
But when used in SAP scripts I get the content displayed correctly.
Can someone help me to display the content in smart forms as such.
I searched the forum for the solution I got some results for the search but I did not get the solution for it.
Points will be rewarded for helpful answers...

How to show image in Smart Form dynamically , Image is stored on local PC

Hi All,
I have a requirement where user can attach any image to PM Order in T-code IW33. Now this image gets stored on user`s local PC.
After this user will generate a report which is a Smart form, On this Smartform i have to show that attached image.
So that image will contain Order Id and attached image.
How this can be achieved.
Regards,
Abhishek

Actually this Image(Image of Signature ) will be coming from Mobile device and then it will be stored as an attachment for an PM Order.
So there will not be any manual interuption and therefore no one will be storing this in se78. But this image gets stored in local PC. And now i have to get this image on my Smartform.
Any idea how to do it?

Abhishek

Why use Non-Interactive Adobe forms over Smart-Forms

Hi,
Is there any advantage of using Adobe over Smart-forms. We do not need Interactive forms. I know this is a new approach which SAP is using, but other than that is there any good reason?

better look and fill..
better scope of development.
reusable interfaces
digital signatures.
use of scripting languages.

Month view in smart form depending on date

if the date is 01.01.08 I want it to display as 01 Jan 08..?and if is
02.02.08 I want it as 02 Feb 08..
How to resolve this in smart form field..?
let me know..
Thanks,

Hi,
You should write code in order to obtain this,
If v_date is your date field.
In the porgram logic you check for v_date+4(2)
If g_date+4(2) = '01'.
concatenate g_date6(2) 'JAN' g_date0(2) into g_date.
elseif g_date_4(2) = '02'.
concatenate g_date6(2) 'FEB' g_date0(2) into g_date.
elseif...................
then display g_date.

What is the diff b/w Sap Scripts and Smart Forms

Hi,
Whats the diff b/w SAP Scripts and Smart Forms..
I need the internal explanation for both Smart Forms and SAP Scripts mean when we execute what happens whether Print Program r Forms starts execution 1st and SIMILARLY FOR SMARTFORMS WHETHER FM'S R FORMS.
Thanks & Regards,
Gopi.

Hi
Difference with SMARTFORMS vs. SapScript(SE71)
The Following are the differences :-
a) Multiple page formats are possible in smartforms which is not the case in SAPScripts
b) It is possible to have a smartform without a main window .
c) Labels cannot be created in smartforms.
d) Routines can be written in smartforms tool.
e) Smartforms generates a function module when activated.
f) Unlike sapscripts (RSTXSCRP), you cannot upload/download Smartform to your local harddisk.
It was said that it was provided in CRM 3.0 version, but not available in R/3. You can download smartforms into Local PC in a XML format. In the same way you can upload this XML format into Smartform. From the smartform editor itself you can call download option, if you are working in CRM 3.0 environment.
In R3 also, you can download into XML format. However, it's not sure about uploading. Refer to the program 'SF_XSF_DEMO'.
In 4.7 Enterprise, other have seen this utlity which is completey missing in 4.6c. There is functionality to downlaod a complete form or only a particular node. (Utilities -> Download form). It will create a XML file and save it in the hard disk.
For others, if you want to download/upload the Smartforms source, you will need the help from the Basis people. What you can do is to create a Transport and then FTP down to your local harddisk. When you need the Smartform source in another system, you have FTP up the Smartforms file back to the SAP server. Finally, the Basis team, will tp it into your system.
g) The protect and endprotect command in sapscript doesn't work with smartforms. For example on a invoice: First data of position no 80. is printed on page one, other data of position no 80 is printed on page 2. And there's nothing you can do about it. Actually, there is something you can do about it. By using a folder node and checking the 'protect' checkbox, everything in that folder will be page protected.

Text inversed in the smart form table

Dear all,
I'm new in ABAP and working on a smart form which has a cell in table shows an article description in both Arabic & English
but the Arabic text appears in reversed sequence in the print preview and after printing it shows like this ##### #########.
any idea how to solve this problem
thanks

Hello,
Please see the following SAP Note about printing Arabic:
587150 - Support of Arabic-script languages
For your Unicode system, then you should be able to print Arabic
characters via device type ARSWIN or device type SWINCF.
The Unicode cascading fonts solution with the device type SWINCF
described in the following SAP Note:
812821 - Cascading Font settings
So you need to configure a Frontend output device that uses device type
ARSWIN and use this to create the print with the Arabic characters.

David

toolbar buttons. "Save" , "Preview" and "Print". At the end of selection screen I have a
button "text" which when clicked takes me to the text element editor(FM 'TEXT_EDIT' )
I have to enter a project number on the selection screen, enter all other details and
then click on the "Text" button. I would then change /edit some text etc and come back
to sel screen. Now i click on preview , the smart form shows up and the text gets dispalyed
with the modified text.
I am passing the text name by appending "sometext" + project number to the TEXT_EDIT
and while eiditing and as a parameter to the smart form. In the smart form i have given the variable in the "include text".
Now Herez the problem.
I am still in selection screen and clik on the "text" button and it takes me to the
text editor. Now i add more lines, save and come back. Now i clik on preview
button and it displays the old text data.
When i come out of the transaction and renter , clik on the preview it displays data
correctly. Now if i repeat the steps
1.edit text button , add a few lines
2.preview button, shows data as entered in step 1.
3.edit text button, add few more lines
4.preview button .. the text displays is from step 1 and not 3.
I am not sure if this is lot of info for anybody to write an answer straight away but
if u need more info i can provide. I can do a read_text in the smart form but its toooooo
much of a pain for the data i need to display. million adjustments to be taken care of.
What could be the problem ? I have given all the basic settings like save parameter
in edit_text fm , checked all the print preview options in sdn.
Here are my questions
1. Why is the text element not getting refreshed.
2. After a form is displayed for preview , will it store anywhere in the buffer ? if yes
is there any method to clear it ?

Hi,
The problem is not with text elements, it might be your size of window which you are using to display the text elements. Check your window size and modify that accordingly.

Do you have any idea how can I solve the problem with the css file? Any suggestion is welcome!

I just solved the problem by activating the service /SAP/BC/BSP/SAP/smart_forms/ through the transaction SICF. So I close the thread!
