SMARTFORMS printing graphics from URL

I do not find anything yet to print graphics on SMARTFORM using variable name from a url NOT via SE78 Graphics Administration Document Server.
There is solution to load SE78 Document Server via BDC but I am looking for solution where Document Server is not loaded with excessive images AND NOT solution writing over a single image there; I want it actually redirected to another url address.
I do understand that I will maintain a table having the url address AND that I can even display from SMARTFORM; I am asking for solution that actually prints the stored image.

Dear Michael,
good to see you..
I am facing the same problem for using the image from URL in SMARTFORM...
If you got solved the problem please give me the suggestions how you had done this....
Please,....
Thanks in advance,

Smartform - Printing Graphic store in Printer Harddisk via PCL

Dear Folks,
I have a logo stored as a Macro (prn file) in my HP Laser Jet 4350 printer's hard disk.
When printing any smart forms from that printer, the logo is suppose to be printed together from the printer harddisk. I am not to import the graphic into the smart form itself.
I read that there may be a need to write PCL commands in the Smartform to trigger the printing. Is this correct?
If so, can anybody direct me to useful references to learn how to do this?
Thank you.
Best Regards,
Junwen

Hi,
This is how it is handled
Hexadecimal Data: HEX, ENDHEX Use this command to send printer commands in a printer language directly to a printer that supports that language. SAPscript does not interpret the data enclosed by the HEX and ENDHEX command pair, but inserts it unchanged into the output stream. 
This technique allows objects with a pixel-oriented format (for example, graphics) to be printed as part of a SAPscript text. The HEX and ENDHEX command pair enclose the printer commands and data as hexadecimal text, so that the printer formatting routines interpret each successive pair of characters as a single hexadecimal value in the range of 0 to 255. The characters 0 to 9 and A to F for representing the values 10 to 15 are valid hexadecimal characters. The text may also include comment lines (these begin with /* in the format column), which will not be interpreted as hexadecimal data but are simply passed over by the formatting routines.
Syntax: /: HEX [TYPE printer_language] The HEX command denotes the start of the hexadecimal data. Subsequent text lines are interpreted as described above. If the TYPE parameter is present, the data will be sent to the printer only if the printer understands the specified printer language.
The following printer languages are currently supported: POST (Postscript), PRES (Kyocera Prescribe) and PCL (HP Printer Control Language). /: HEX [TYPE printer_language] [XPOS x_position] [YPOS y_position]
Here is the answer for your second question,
The output cursor is set to the absolute position indicated by the specified X and Y position parameters before the hexadecimal data is printed. If either the X or the Y position is not specified, then 0 will be assumed for this parameter. /: HEX [TYPE printer_language] [HEIGHT height] [LEFT left_indentation] The HEIGHT parameter determines the amount of space to be reserved on the page for the output of the hexadecimal data. Any text following the ENDHEX command will be printed below this point. If the LEFT parameter is also specified, then the output of the hexadecimal data will is indented from the left margin by the specified amount.
/: HEX TYPE PCL HEIGHT '7.5' CM LEFT '2.25' CM /* Creator: report ZQVNTE30 date 19940705 time 125129 user SAPSCRIPT /= 1B2A7230461B2A743735521B2A7231411B2A62304D1B2A62343057FFFFFFFFFFFF /= FF1B2A62343057FFFFFFFFFFFFC0007D00DFC0F7D0000000000000000000000017 /: ENDHEX This data is printed only by an HP PCL printer (fro example, HP LaserJet). 7.5 cm of space is allocated on the page for the output of the data and the output cursor is indented 2.25 cm to the right of the form window edge.
You said its useful, now this will solve your problem
Feel free to revert back.

Print Graphics from GFW_PRES_SHOW_MULT

Hi,
does anybody know how to print Graphics using GFW_PRES_SHOW_MULT. I'm not used with OO otherwise I would go this way. Thanx in advance.

Hi everybody,
I've found a solution:
1) Copy the Functiongroup SGFW to Z namespace and also
   FB GFW_PRES_SHOW_MULT
2) de-comment the following lines in the FB: (DATA-Part)
        evtcode_list           TYPE cntl_simple_events,
        simple_event           TYPE cntl_simple_event.
insert :
simple_event-appl_event = 'X'.
simple_event-eventid = if_graphic_proxy=>co_evt_value_changed.
append simple_event to evtcode_list.
use system event (no PAI processing) for customizing changes:
*simple_event-appl_event = space.
simple_event-eventid = if_graphic_proxy=>co_evt_custom_changed.
append simple_event to evtcode_list.
(comming from Report GFW_DEMO_PRES1 directly below Start-of-Selection) under the DATA declarations in the FB
3) change the method-call in the FB as follows:
        IF content IS REQUESTED.
          CALL METHOD graphic_proxy-ref->init
            EXPORTING
              parent       = parent_container
              dc           = dc_inst_pres
              prod_id      = cl_gui_gp_pres=>co_prod_export
              force_prod   = gfw_true
              evtcode_list = evtcode_list
            IMPORTING
              retval       = local_retval.
        ELSE.
          CALL METHOD graphic_proxy-ref->init
            EXPORTING
              parent       = parent_container
              top          = top
              left         = left
              height       = height
              width        = width
              dc           = dc_inst_pres
              evtcode_list = evtcode_list
            IMPORTING
              retval       = local_retval.
        ENDIF.
The parameter evtcode_list is just added.
That's it! Right-Click works now on Graphics and printing is only one new possibility!

Problems printing graphics from iPages

My printer (currently HP3800) doesn't like to print certain graphics or images from iPages, which is a problem because I create brochures within a small office. Can anyone recommend a printer that you have not had trouble printing from iPages that is powerful enough for a small office?
Thanks!

My printer (currently HP3800) doesn't like to print certain graphics or images from iPages
What is "doesn't like" a description of? If you don't prepare photographs and illustrations properly before you place them, then no printer and no press will "like" your photographs and illustrations.

Printing graphics from InDesign CS2 to an HP 4000 PS Laserjet

My HP 4000 Laserjet will not print InDesign CS2 documents that have pictures, other graphics, or objects created in InDesign with either a drop shadow or feathered.
I have an HP Laserjet 4000 which I previously used with Pagemaker 6.5. I could set the screen lpi and angle values for exactly as it needed to be using the Acrobat Distiller PPD and print documents (with pictures and graphics) to the post script printer with no problem. Now I am using Adobe InDesign CS2 and I don't seem to have same the printing options and control that I had with Pagemaker. But mainly, in Pagemaker, when I printed a document I could select the HP 4000 PS printer in the Print Document box and it listed Acrobat Distiller in the PPD box which is what I used.
Now with InDesign CS2, when I select the HP 4000 PS printer it only shows the HP 4000 PS series ppd (and this may be correct). Although I can still set the values for screening (lpi) and screen angles and screened objects that are created in InDesign will print to whatever screen values I selected, the document will not print when pictures and other graphics are placed into the document or if an object created in InDesign has a drop shadow or is feathered. When I remove the graphics and drop shadow, it will print, however, another problem is that it will not print certain fonts properly (leaving out certain letters in certain words - for instance the "l" in "floor".)
Is this a compatibility issue between this older Laserjet and InDesign -- is there another driver that I need -- or am I overlooking something that's obvious? I'd appreciate someone's help who may know what the problem is so I won't be doing the trial and error thing.
Thanks,
Cliff Stone

Thanks everyone for their input. As far as the memory shortage, I'm pretty sure that's not the problem. I can create a document in Pagemaker of only 200KB that prints fine and the convert the same document to ID and it fails to print.
I think Dov is right about the 4000 because I remember when the printer was new, there were some incompatibility issues with Pagemaker that I had to work around. The Adobe people told me back then that Pagemaker and HP postscript printers didn't get along very well.
I'll check with HP again (I've already written to them twice with no response) and see if the firmware upgrade Dov mentioned is still available, however, even though this 4000 has been very durable and a real workhorse for me, it may be time to put it out to pasture and invest in a new Postscript laserjet.
Any recommendations?
Thanks again for everyone's help.

HT1338 Printing graphics

Since updates installed on August 4, I am unable to print on my Epson Stylus PX730WD from files generated in Quark 10.2. When I try, any graphics come out corrupted or Quark crashes. I am able to print text only files and I am able to print from PDFs of the files but not from the originals.
Quark are working on this but so far have found no solutions. I note that my 'About my Epson Stylus PX730WD' window shows the printer as 'Printer Proxy' version 9.4'. Do I, therefore, have a problem with my printer software, rather than a problem with Quark?

Dear Matthias,
Thank you for your continued interest. I am pleased to report that I believe the problem of printing graphics from Quark original files is now resolved.
The trouble was with fonts. I was working with Extensis Suitcases Version 4 which apparently does not support Quark 10.2. When I upgraded to Suitcases Version 5 yesterday, all seemed to be in order.
I hope that this information will be useful to you and to other customers who may have had similar experiences. Once again, my thanks for your time.
Kind regards,
Diana

Printing checks from payment program F110 with smartforms

Hi! I am working in ECC 5.0 and I want to print checks from the payment program with a smartform, I created a non standard smartform but when I try to link the smartform with the program by transaction FBZP the available options are SAPScripts only. Is possible to do it?
Thanks in advance

Hi! Even I am working in ECC 5.0 and I want to print checks from the payment program with a SAP SCRIPT Form, but the issue is that we hav the standard print program for printing the form and this form is being used by some other custom program....I want to customize the standard print program in the transaction F110 so that It successfully calls that form which is now called by some other program. I've the option of customizing the standard print program as per the program which is calling that Form but I'm not able to understand the flow of either of the print programs. Can anybody guide me here on how to understand the flow of the print and go for the customizing of the standard print program for the payment process?
Also, the current print program and Form which is being used by some other custom print program is already customized in the transaction FBZP.
Thanks in advance

Printing File from DMS in smartform from IW33

Hi SAP Gurus,
My requirement is as follows,
In order(IW33)>Operations>Production Resources/ Tools, A document is maintianed. I need to print file from there in a smartform regardless of the file format.
For this I have searched and found the following logic.
from Tables dms_doc2loio, dms_ph_cd1 I am getting Doc details, these details are passed to the below FM,
*This function module will give the content of the file in binary format
CALL FUNCTION 'SDOK_PHIO_LOAD_CONTENT'
EXPORTING
object_id = wa_object_id
client = sy-mandt
AS_IS_MODE =
RAW_MODE =
TEXT_AS_STREAM =
TABLES
FILE_ACCESS_INFO =
FILE_CONTENT_ASCII =
file_content_binary = it_file_content_binary
EXCEPTIONS
not_existing = 1
not_authorized = 2
no_content = 3
bad_storage_type = 4
OTHERS = 5.
After getting the data in binary format, how to print in smartforms, Please help..
Regards,
Pavan.

I am Sorry I dont understand why you are moving the data into a binary format conversion.
Is there any particular thing which makes you to do so? If so, Please explain.
Instead have you try to convert them into Xstring and then into String. By doing so. If any special characters or any special symbols or anything. the system wont give any error. instead it is a easy method also.
check out these function Modules: NLS_STRING_CONVERT_FROM_SYS
NLS_STRING_CONVERT_TO_SYS

Bought a new Canon MG7540 printer to replace the old HP A618. When printing vector objects from Illustrator, they look like graphics from dandy (8 bits) ... no smooth, all cubes ... if do raster than print perfectly. Who knows how to treat it? No well to rasterize vector before each printing. OS - MacOs 10.10.

Have you read the User's Guide for that printer? Odds are you will get reasonable prints. However, it is a photographic printer. That said, it should print excellent quality photographic files. To get smooth lines in Illustrator, try Preferences > Use Anti-Aliased Artwork. That will smoothen the output. If, for some reason, that does not work, try Print > Save As PDF > open PDF in Reader and print from there. Check the User's Guide for media sizes available for your particular printer. Setup your artboard to the size page you want the image to print on. Use View > Show Page Tiling ( to see where the page's printable area lies. Align the page with the artboard using the Page tool.

How do i print all posts in a forum from url?

how do i print all posts in a forum from url?

Firefox doesn't have a built-in feature to open all the links on a page, or to print pages automatically. However, there might be some add-ons that would help you do that. You could search on the web, or try on the Add-ons site:
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/
Alternately, you may find a separate program to do it, which either has its own embedded browser or uses the connectivity features built into Windows.

Print report directly from URL

i have SSRS report where i have prompt to enter to get data. once the data is populated i would like to print directly from the print option rather saving to pdf and print. My page settings format is setup to 9X11 size. with this i can save and print fine.
But if i print directly to print on A-4 right most part is not printing and looks like i have to change settings in my report. How do we print this kind of report correctly on A-4 size paper. Any help much appreciated.

Hi SQL Instane,
Per my understanding that you want to print the report directly when click the print button and print on A-4, you have set the size to 9X11 and after print out, some of the part is not printing, right?
By default the size setting for print to A4 is 8.5X11 or 11X8.5, If you have changed to 9X11 and didn't set the body size of the report properly, it my cause the issue you are facing.
Details information below for your reference about how to do the size setting:
Change the report size setting to 8.5(Page Width)X11(Page height), you can also try to decrease the size of the "left margin" and "right margin" to increase the width.
Check the body size setting and maek sure they have the relationship as below:
Body Width + Left margin + Right margin <=Page width
Body height+ Top margin + Button margin <=Page height
If you have many columns and need to increase the width, you can also change the default setting "potrait" (8.5X11)to "Landscape"(11X8.5)
Article about the Pagination in Reporting Services for your reference:

If your problem still exists, please try to provide more details information.
Any problem, please feel free to ask.
