Smart Form PDF layout issue

I developed a from in smart form to send it as PDF attachment in email. It worked fine but I have a issue.
When I send PDF it send in the way the the layout was designed but if some user sends it the fields are printed zigzag. Alignment is getting messed up. I have page layout defined in the smartfom. I am not printing the form so no printer is involved in development.
How to handle the issue?
Thanks,

1. the layout you see even though u r not printing it is dependent on the device type like ....LOCL ..etc
2. the user settings have an effect

Es ist nicht möglich, externe JS-Dateien zum Kopieren nach ".../plug_ins/AcroForm/JavaScripts/" mitzugeben. Weiterhin soll diese Methode speziell auch im AcroReader und nicht nur unter Acrobat funktionieren.

Es gibt auch das "Page Open"-Ereignis, bei welchem beim =D6ffnen einer

Adobe Acrobat 9 still can't convert Word 2003 files?

http://forums.adobe.com/thread/673769 is a link to the same discussion a year ago. There was no option for me to add a reply, so I had to create a new discussion here.
HAS THIS PROBLEM BEEN FIXED? Fujitsu's pdf printer S1500 comes with a full OEM version Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard, which I just installed. Immediately it caused problems with Word 2003, just as the above discussion link illustrates. Clearly that's a problem with Adobe Acrobat not being able to read SOME fonts. Where is there any bug fix for this?
Why would a customer want to upgrade Adobe Acrobat, if he can't get font support? In my case, it appears that GREEK FONTS are not supported, which makes no sense, if the fonts are installed in Windows. The pdf-converter knock-offs like Smart Creator PDF Pro can convert just fine -- so why not Adobe Acrobat? Who wants to pay more for Adobe, if it is worse?
So again I ask -- has this problem been fixed? Very unprofessional, if the answer is 'no'.
Very unproductive, too. I spent hours on computer crashes, reinstall uninstall detect and repair, just like the posters in that thread above, from a year ago. Businesses don't need this kind of aggravation. IS ADOBE EVEN LISTENING? Very unprofessional, if the answer is 'no'.

First, this is a user-to-user forum and not one for Adobe. They are sometimes around, but not on a regular basis. The lengthy discussion in the link did not apparently get folks to a solution. I did not see your handle in the discussion.
Two common errors were suggested, one the color setup and the other was font errors. Keep in mind that just because you have a font, it might not be able to be embedded in the file. That is due to copyright restrictions. The font file has to have the permission built into it to be used. That may be the case for any font that you download from another source. Most of the MS fonts are licensed for embedding.
Also, just because you have a font with the same name, does not mean it is the same. There are often multiple versions of the fonts, some that are useful and others not.
Out of the linked discussion, I have no idea what issues you are having -- there were many. I use AA9 with OFFICE 2007 and have no problems. I also use AA8 with OFFICE 2007. For AA7 I have a machine that runs OFFICE XP (2003). None of these have issues. To be able to help (if we can at all) it is necessary to track down the conditions when the problem occurs and possibly try to replicate it some. A few folks mentioned 64-bit systems in the linked discussion. The 64-bit systems have caused a lot of problems and generally require the updates for proper opertation.
From the point-of-view of trying to fix things without delving into the specfics, all I can suggest are a repair and then updates to the latest version of Acrobat. The updates should be able to be done from the Help menu, but if not from there you can download them from the Adobe Downloads>updates site.
Probably not considered much help at this point, but I really don't have enough information to home in on the problem. It may be that my copyright comment about fonts is really the issue (you should get an error message from Distiller if you print to the Adobe PDF printer that suggest the problem. As far as other packages, if they do indeed embed copyright fonts that do not have permission, then you are technically violating the law, even if allowed by the software. I have no idea if that is the case, but it is a possibility.

Issue with characters like u0151 in maintaining text

Hi,
When characters are entered as per HU language, we face trouble with characters like ő Ő into text fields like in sales order. As soon as this letter is entered, it is changed to 'O' as in EN language.
changing -> Options-> Character set -> Central European, makes the display ő as ő .
1. Is this the permanent solution for this problem ? or do we have any better idea ?
2. Does this character set do any command in printing (SAP Scripts/ Smart Forms / PDF) ?
Please let me know your thoughts.
Thanks

SMTP SERVICE

Hi,
Please let me know how to activate the SMTP service in SRM .
Regards,
Manu

Please go through the SAP OSS Note details below ->
Note 455140 - Configuration of e-mail, fax, paging or SMS using SMTP
>
>
>Summary
Symptom
How do you configure e-mail, fax, paging or SMS in the SAP Web Application Server using SMTP?
Which prerequisites and settings are required outside the SAP system?
Other terms
INT, FAX, PAG, SAPconnect, SMTP
Reason and Prerequisites
Some information is missing.
Solution
General information, architecture, prerequisites, system environment
When e-mails are transferred using SMTP, the SAP Web Application Server communicates directly with a mail server. No gateway or connector is necessary.
You can use any SMTP-compatible product as a mail server.
The SAP system always transfers the outbound mails to a single mail server. You can set its host address and port number.
The SAP system can receive inbound mails from any number of mail servers. You can reach each client using separate, configurable port numbers. You can address the SAP system or its client most effectively by using an individual subdomain for each client (for example, "crm-prod.company.com"). The assignment of these subdomains to host name and port numbers of the SAP system is defined by the routing rules on the mail servers.
As of Release 6.20, you can also send and receive fax and SMS or paging messages using SMTP. These are packed in e-mails for this purpose. When sending, the mail server refers to the domain of the recipients' addresses, and directs the e-mails either to a internal company fax/SMS server (for example "[email protected]") or to an external provider (for example, "[email protected]"). When receiving, the fax or SMS server or the provider sends e-mails to addresses with the domain of the SAP system (for example "[email protected]").
Configuration
1. Profile parameter
To be able to use the SMTP functions, you must adjust the profile of the SAP Web Application Server. We recommend that you activate SMTP on all application servers of an SAP system. If this is not the case, the SAPconnect send job may only be scheduled for servers on which SMTP is active. The scheduling is then done by the standard job definition (transaction SM36) rather than by the SAPconnect administration (transaction SCOT, for a description, see 4.c).
For SMTP, you must set the profile parameters listed below. The placeholder <*> stands for a number with which the parameters that can occur several times are numbered sequentially, starting with 0.
a) icm/server_port_<*> = PROT=SMTP,PORT=<port>
This opens a TCP/IP port for receiving mails by the SMTP Plug-In. <port> specifies the number of the port that you should use. This must not be occupied by any other program on this host (for example, Sendmail usually uses port 25). If no mails (including status notifications) are to be received in this SAP system, <port> can be set to 0.
You can use the TIMEOUT option to define a maximum wait time for a response from the mail server (in seconds).
b) is/SMTP/virt_host_<*> = <host>:<port>,<port>,...;
This defines a "virtual mail host" for receiving mails. If all incoming mails (including status notifications) are to be received and processed in a single client of this SAP system, this parameter is not required (an entry is/SMTP/virt_host_0 = : is then assumed by default). If you want several clients to be able to receive, you must create a virtual mail host for every client. <host> specifies the name of the host to which incoming mails are addressed. The "*" value can also be specified here if the mail distribution is to occur independently of the addressed host. Important: If the mail is to be distributed according to host names, you must assign different IP addresses to these host names. <port> specifies the number of a port to which incoming mails are addressed. Several ports may be specified for each host, and several hosts (with several ports if necessary) may be specified for each virtual mail host. Important: The parameter line must always be completed with a semicolon (even if only one host is involved).
The assignment of virtual mail hosts to clients is carried out in the SAP system (see 3).
              Example:
With two clients capable of receiving mail, the profile parameters could read as follows (as of Release 6.20):
   icm/server_port_0 = PROT=HTTP,PORT=1080
icm/server_port_1 = PROT=HTTPS,PORT=1443
icm/server_port_2 = PROT=SMTP,PORT=25000,TIMEOUT=180
icm/server_port_3 = PROT=SMTP,PORT=25001,TIMEOUT=180
is/SMTP/virt_host_0 = *:25000;
   is/SMTP/virt_host_1 = *:25001;
2. User administration (transaction SU01)
a) System user
In each client of an SAP system in which incoming mails (or status notifications for sent mails) are to be received, a system user must be created to process the incoming messages. To do this, use transaction SU01 to create a user of the type "system", and assign the "S_A.SCON" profile to this user.
Important: Contrary to the documentation for user types, users of type "system" are also subject to password expiry, which can prevent the receipt of mails. To avoid this, use user type "service" until a correction of the incorrect behavior of type "system" is available.
b) User addresses
Each individual user who wants to receive e-mails in an SAP system needs an Internet mail address. This is also used as a sender address for sending e-mails. In transaction SU01, enter the Internet mail address of a user in the field "E-Mail" under "Address". As a domain, use the domain of the SAP system client if possible (see "General information" above and 4.a), for example "[email protected]".
3. Client assignment (transaction SICF)
For each client of an SAP system in which incoming mails (or status notifications for sent mails) are to be received, and processed if necessary, you must create an SMTP server in which the assignment to a virtual mail host as well as the logon data is defined. In transaction SICF, an SMTP server (envelope icon) should already be available in every SAP system. This is delivered by SAP. Use this for the first client that you want to be able to receive mails, and create a new SMTP server for every other client. You must make the following settings on the SMTP servers:
a) Host data
For "Profile Parameter Number", enter the sequence number of a parameter is/SMTP/virt_host_<*> from the profile. If you have only one client and did not create such a parameter in the profile, enter 0.
b) Service data
Enter the client into which the mails received using this virtual mail host are to be directed, as well as the logon data (user, password, language) of the service user that was created for inbound mails (see 2.a).
c) Handler list
Enter CL_SMTP_EXT_SAPCONNECT in the first position.
              As of Release 6. 20, you must activate the SMTP server after you create or change it (Service/Virt.Host --> Activate, or right-click).
4. SAPconnect administration (transaction SCOT)
You have to make the SAPconnect settings separately in each client from which e-mails are to be sent or in which e-mails are to be received.
a) Default domain
The domain of this SAP system client is defined here, for example, crm-prod.company.com. It is used for the following purposes:
The SMTP Plug-In logs on to the mail server with the domain as ID.
The message ID of outgoing mails is created with this domain.
If an SAP user who has not entered an Internet mail address in their user master record sends an e-mail, a sender address is generated from the SAP user name and this domain, for example [email protected].
b) Nodes
There are different types of node in SAPconnect:
SMTP nodes (for the SMTP function of the SAP application server)
HTTP nodes (for paging or SMS providers using Web services, as of 6.20)
RFC nodes (for old RFC-compatible e-mail/fax/paging gateways)
                       There is always a single SMTP node in each client. It is created automatically by the system and cannot be deleted. It is configured as follows (double-click on the node name):
Select "Node in use".
Under "Mail Host" and "Mail Port", specify the mail server to which outbound mails are to be transferred.
Select "Set" for "Internet".
Specify address areas of recipient addresses that are to be reached using these nodes (usually "*" if all e-mails are to be sent using SMTP).
For "Output Formats for SAP Documents", the following is recommended:
   SAPscript / Smart Forms      PDF
   ABAP List                    HTM
   Business Object / Link        HTM
   RAW Text                      TXT
                       If fax messages are also to be sent using SMTP:
Select "Set" for "Fax".
Specify address areas of recipient addresses that are to be reached using these nodes (usually "*" if all faxes are to be sent using SMTP).
For "Output Formats for SAP Documents", the following is recommended:
   SAPscript / Smart Forms      PDF
   ABAP List                    PDF
   Business Object / Link        TXT
   RAW Text                      TXT
For "Conversion into Internet Address", enter the domain of the fax server or fax provider. The local part of the Internet address is generated automatically by the system. The address then has the form "FAX=+recipientnumber@domain".
                       If paging or SMS messages are also to be sent using SMTP:
Select "Set" for "Pager(SMS)".
Specify address areas of recipient addresses that are to be reached using these nodes (usually "*" if all paging or SMS messages are to be sent using SMTP).
For "Conversion into Internet Address", enter the domain of the paging or SMS server or paging or SMS provider. The local part of the Internet address is generated automatically by the system. The address then has the form "SMS=+recipientnumber@domain".
                       Important: To be able to use paging or SMS in the SAP system, names must be defined for the messaging services to be used (e.g. "SMS"). You can do this using transaction SA14.
c) Send job
E-mails that are sent from an SAP application are merely put into a queue. A periodically running background process, the SAPconnect send job, takes the e-mails from the queue and sends them by Internet. This job can be scheduled from SAPconnect administration as follows:
Choose "View" --> "Jobs". Check whether a job is already scheduled (displayed as a calendar icon).
Choose "Job" --> "Create", and specify a job name.
Place the cursor on the "SAP&CONNECTALL" variant, and choose "Schedule Job".
Choose "Schedule periodically".
Specify a time interval (for example, 10 minutes), and choose "Create".
d) Receiving
With the settings made so far, SAP users can already receive e-mails in their inbox in the Business Workplace (transaction SBWP) at the address entered in the user master record.
If, on receipt of e-mails to a specific address or with specific contents (for example XML documents), you want a program that processes these e-mails to start automatically, you can configure this under "Settings" --> "Inbound Processing".
If, on receipt of e-mails to a specific address or from a specific sender, you want these to be directed automatically to another recipient or a distribution list, you can configure this under "Settings" --> "Inbound Distribution".
5. Settings on the mail server (SAP-external configuration)
To be able to receive mails in the SAP system, you need to set your mail server so that certain mail addresses are forwarded to one or several SAP systems or clients. For this purpose, you need to define routing rules that assign a mail host and/or port to address areas (generic address parts, usually the domain), for example:
      *@crm-prod.company.com --> SAPWASHost:25000
      *@crm-test.company.com --> SAPWASHost:25001
For more information about the exact setting procedure, see the mail server documentation. Note 546147 describes where the documentation can be found for the Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server, and what to do if your mail server does not allow routing to ports other than port 25.

Settings reqd in TCode SCOT to configure SMTP

Hi,
I am in the process of configuring SMTP. I have done all the ICM settings and settings in TCode SICF.
This is an external SMTP server and to be able to use it as a smtp server there is master username and password. For this case in SCOT do I have to use the default SMTP node or create a new node of type RFC?
Can any one please guide me further configuration steps.
Thank you,
sam

Hi,
Note 455140 - Configuration E-mail, fax, paging/SMS via SMTP
1. System user
In each client of an SAP system, a system user must be created to process the incoming messages. To do this, use transaction SU01 to create a user of the type "system" and assign the "S_A.SCON" profile to this user.
2. In transaction SU01, enter the Internet mail address of a user in the "E-Mail" field under "Address".
3. Client assignment (transaction SICF)
a. In the Logon data (SAPconnect) Provide the client and the user created.
b. Activate the node SAPconnect.
4. SCOT
a. Use the default SMTP node.
b. check the check box (Node in use) in "General Information".
c. Provide the Mail host in "SMTP Connection".
d. click on internet in "Support Address types".
e. provide a * in "Address area".
f. For "Output Formats for SAP Documents" the following is recommended:
   SAPscript / Smart Forms       PDF
   ABAP List                            HTM
   Business Object / Link          HTM
   RAW Text                             TXT
5. Default domain in SCOT.
The domain of this SAP system client is defined here, for example, crm-prod.company.com. It is used for the following purposes: The SMTP plug-in logs on to the mail server with the domain as ID. The message ID of outgoing mails is compiled with this domain. If an SAP user who has not entered an Internet mail address in their user master record sends an e-mail, a sender address is generated from the SAP user name and this domain, for example [email protected].
In Menu
settings --> Default Domain.
e.g crm-prod.company.com
6. Send job
E-mails that are sent from an SAP application are merely put into a queue. A periodically running background process, the SAPconnect send job, takes the e-mails from the queue and sends them via the Internet. This job can be scheduled from SAPconnect administration as follows:
"View" --> "Jobs". Check whether a job is already scheduled (displayed as a calendar icon).
Choose "Job" --> "Create", and specify a job name.
Place the cursor on the "SAP&CONNECTALL" variant and choose "Schedule Job".
Choose "Schedule periodically".
Specify a time interval (for example 10 minutes) and choose "Create".
Thanks,

Incrementally appending custom XMP metadata

I have a problem writing custom XMP metadata into a PDF document (I'm using the XMP Toolkit SDK).
The problem is that I don't know whether is possible to expand the XMP packet in order to append metadata incrementally into the document, and, if it is possible, I don't know how to do it. The program I wrote succesfully appends an item to an array four times, but it fails when trying to append the fifth one. The reason obviously is that the packet gets full and there is not room for more metadata. The error message, if I force the PutXMP call, is:
ERROR: Can't fit into specified packet size
So, what can I do? How to enlarge the packet or make it expandable? Or, otherwise, have I to inject a new XMP packet with the up-to-date information in it? How?
And a last question: Have I to scan for packets when dealing with PDF files? No smart handlers are available for this kind of files?
Thanks in advance.

One of the known limitations of the XMPToolkit is that it is NOT smart about PDF documents - it treats them as "generic binary" and thus can not add beyond the pre-allocated whitespace already in the PDF.
If you are doing any serious operations of XMP with PDF - I recommend that you look at licensing the Adobe PDFLibrary which is a full functioning PDF library and incorporates the XMPToolkit inside it (among many other things).
