Smartform output as .rtf file

Does anyone of you know if it is posible to sent out a Smartform/Sapscript generated from a transaction document (e.g. PO, Sales order) by email in the .rtf (Rich Text Format) format?
Regards
Gaurav

Hi Gaurav,
To get the output of your samrtform in .rtf format.First execute your smartform now go to GOTO->List Display after this your layout is displayed in list format .Now again go to System>List>save>Local file-->now select rich text format option and say ok.Now it will ask you for the path where to save give the path and you will get your samrt form displayed in rtf format.But you cannot display LOGO here in rtf.
Reward Points if helpful.

How to download a smartform output as excel file WITH EXACT LAYOUT.

Hi,
     I have searched the forum but could not found any satisfactory answer. I have a smartform with a table, some texts and a logo. I have to write a code which will save the smartform output as excel file in the system keeping the layout of the smartform output EXACT.
i.e., the excel file will contain the output with EXACTLY THE SAME layout as would have been for a pdf file (if the smartform output is converted to a pdf file) and the client can then edit the fields of the table in the excel file. How can I achieve this? Please give a suggestion.. Thanks in advance.

Hi Anirban,
Your Requirement is to download a smartform to microsoft Excel .
Well unfortunately we can only download data into excel which is in a tabular format i.e stored in internal tables we have function modules to do the same even u can do that using OLE2.
If u try to download a smartform to Excel only format supported will be ASCII, if u will continue with that the smartforms text's will get downloaded to excel but whole data would be downloaded in a single Cell.
Code to do the same is -

As u said ,u want to download a smartform to Excel it could be done but only if u r using a internal table and exactly printing line by line values in the smartform, But if u are performing calculation in between, using multiple internal table Work areas, structures, etc i.e if whole smartform is developed with many distributed windows , unfortunately it wont be possible to download a smartform to excel in such cases, because the whole output comes from multiple internal tables, calculations, etc all the data is not printed in a tabular manner so in such a case it would be just impossible to download the smartform to excel.
But we definitely have a workaround which could be done to download the data into excel.
you can develop a ALV report with a header and footer u can define the header and footer of the alv according to the smartform and the middle portion would contain the tabular kind of data which u must be using as Smartform table to print the same.
So if u have a similar kind of smartform with some header data, tabular data, and some footer data, then u can use ALV to do the same thing , advantage with ALV would be that u can easily download the same into excel.
Other alternative is that u can Convert and download the smartform to PDF and copy the same to an Excel wooksheet.
These are all the possibilities with which u can do the same.

Output to RTF File format

I have a report which generates a RTF output in which first and last page are PORTRAIT, all other pages in LANDSCAPE. The problem I am facing is it generates the RTF output but all pages are shown in PORTRAIT. If I open this document and go to each section/page and define in the page setup layout, it prints/looks as per format but if I dont do this it does not print/look good. Is there any setting that I am missing from Windows Word perspective or anything from Reports persepective?
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Ajith

Ajith,
If you haven't done already, please set the oroentation per section in the reports definition and then run to RTF

Yes check the spool and the output displayed correctly in the spool it means there is a problem when you convert OTF to PDF. Check that part of the code and try different options.

Multiple smartform output to single pdf file

Merging Smartform Output and Adobe Form Output in a single PDF File

Hi All,
My Requirement is as follows -
I have multiple Smartforms and a single Adobe Form.
I want to merge the Smartform Outputs and Adobe Form output in a single PDF.
I am able to merge multiple Smartform Output in a PDF , but not able to find any way to merge smartform and adobe form output as the Smartform output is in OTF Format and Adobe form output is in PDF Format itself.
I have tried few ways , but could not find any success.
Request you all to give me some direction to this problem.
Thanks & Regards
Bhavika

Kumar,
I am afraid this is not possible using SAP functionality. There are probably 3rd party tools which allow you to merge several PDFs into one, but SAP itself does not offer such a mechanism. There is an internal SAP function, though, which can merge several "parts" (=several PDFs) within an Adobe-created spool request into a single PDF, intended for downloading this PDF from SP01.
This is described in note 1717357.
Best regards,
Alexander

Hi,
Apparently, it's a bug based on the following thread. Workaround would be to use table as border.

How to display a RTF file in the browser?

Hi there,
sorry 'bout my bad English.
My jsp page have to get a rtf file and show it. Just setting the ContentPage to text/rtf, is it a solution?
If not just that, what code I have to write? Let me know!
Thanks

I'm not sure if this can be done through JSP. You may need to write a servlet and set the mime type of the response to application/rtf. Then output the rtf text to the browser. Please let me know if you get this to work - I'm having a similar problem. Thanks.
