Smartform to PDF, how to suppres Print/Preview dialog

Question

Hi Experts,
Facing some issues in downloading PDF converted from Smartform.
In the program I am trying directly download a smartform converted into PDF format and save it in local system.
When ever I am trying to execute the program it shows up the Print/Preview dialog before showing the Save As dialog.
I have passed control_parameters-getotf = 'X' to the smartform runtime FM, which ideally should have suppressed the Print/Preview dialog and return the otfdata.
Here the entire code is...
REPORT  yfr_invoice.
TABLES :  t001, bsad, bsid, kna1,sscrfields .
DATA : fm_name TYPE rs38l_fnam.
DATA : it_bsad TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF bsad.

        belnr TYPE belnr_d,
       END OF it_bseg.
DATA : error_flag.

       out_param  TYPE ssfcompop,
       otfdata    TYPE ssfcrescl,
