U00BFIs it possible to print a .TIFF from SAP?

I am developing CRM, and in the CRM Activities it is possible to attach files of different types (.TIFF, .XLS, .DOC, etc). The client wants the application to print directly the document without their having to open a new application. For example, they want to print a .xls without opening the excel (at least manually). Is this possible?
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Paola del Giorgio

Yes, search forum for OLE.

Is it possible to print a JPanel from the application?

Hello,
Just a quick question: Is it possible to print a JPanel from your application? I have plotted a graph and I would like user to be able to print this with a click of a button (or similar)
Thanks very much for your help, its appreciated as always.

It is absolutely possible
Check out my StandardPrint class. Basically all you need to do is
(this is pseudocode. I don't remember the exact names of methods for all this stuff. Look it up if there's a problem)
PrinterJob pd = PrinterJob.createNewJob();
StandardPrint sp = new StandardPrint(yourComponent);
pd.setPageable(sp);
//if you want this
//pd.pageDialog();
pd.doPrint();You are welcome to have use and modify this class but please don't change the package or take credit for it as your own code.

Is it possible to print a note from numbers spreadsheet

Hi I hope someone can help. Is it possible to print a note from numbers spreadsheet. Or is there any way I can type a ticket that I can print but that will automatically transfer the data to a spreadsheet in numbers?

How about the opposite direction. You have a table with a "key" field, like a ticket #.
You make another sheet that you type in the ticket number and it pulls up the proper data in the proper location for you to print. Just a print tempalte that fills out for the ticket already entered into the data table.

Print Jpeg files from SAP

Hi,
We have JPEG files (pictures) stored in Custom Z table (Cluster table). We would like to know how to print these files from SAP on to a certain printer.
We know that it is not possible to convert JPEG to BMP within SAP and print using SAPScript OR SmartForms.
We want to find out if there is any print command to print these files to SAP printer ?
Any help is appreciated.
Niranjan

Hi Gregory,
I had checked this tcode earlier. However, I don't see any 'Print' jpeg or any other file functionality here. What SAP might be doing here is, allow upload of any document like excel, word or pic files (jpeg, gihf, bmp) and so on and just display.
I am interested in printing functionality without usng SAP Script OR Smartforms, because, when we get into it, we have to talk only TIF or BMP as JPGs are not supported.

It it possible to call web service from SAP 4.6 c..If yes how

Hi Friends,
It it possible to call web service from SAP 4.6 c..If yes how
Thanks in Advance.
Murali Krishna K

It is not possible to directly call a web service from SAP 4.6c.
Indeed, web service enablement is available as from Web AS 6.20, thus as from SAP R/3 4.7
So as described above, the solution is indeed to make use of PI(XI) for this.

Is it possible to print mailing labels from an excel spreadsheet in Macbook pro?

How do you print mailing labels from an excel spreadsheet on a macbook pro? Is it possible. I can only find information about printing labels from your address book.

Why not ask in MacBook Pro forum, or SL, or even MS community or MacTopia.
Office 2011? pretty easy to setup mailing, just click on ribbon tab, and use the built in help.

Is it possible to print text messages form an iPhone?

Yeah, unless you want to deal with the pain of trying to get you messages to your computer, you will have to take a screenshot (by taping the home and lock button at the same time).
If you want to print a screenshot, it will be in the photos app to print ( click the share button and click print). If you so not have a AirPrint printer, there are third-party apps for computers like fingerprint (look it up) that can make a fake AirPrint printer.
I want to add something more.
In most cases, you would need to use a paid third party tool to export and then print your iPhone text messages on your computer. If you have a low amount of messages you want to print you can also take prints creens of each message, then transfer the photos to your computer and print from there.

I am attaching Print Setup screen print with this mail, pls kindly find the attachment.

1535606 - Printer preference setting for the Crystal Layouts
Symptom
Print Crystal Report layout does not consider Business One (B1) printer preferences changed by user before printing.
In order to enable B1 to make print preferences changes in application the Crystal Report Layout must have ticked off the "Dissociate Formatting page Size and Printer Paper Size" option in page setup.
The following preferences are enabled for the Crystal Reports Layouts:
1. Orientation: "Portrait" or "Landscape".
Note! In case the report is too wide to fit on rotated page, error message is returned.
2. Document Options: Duplex printing (Print on both sides).
3. Paper Options: Paper size.
Note! The options Custom Size will not be considered by B1.
Note! In case it is not possible to print on some paper size error message is returned.
4. Paper/Quality: Print Quality/Printer Resolution, Paper Source.
5. Color Options.
Note! Crystal does not resize the report to fit the selected paper or format.
Cause
Application error
Solution
As a workaround, please change the Page Setup to Landscape in Crystal
Report designer itself.

How to script to Print a document from SAP Business One SDK

I have created a project using UDO, Form and User table using B1DE2005.
I wonder how can i program to print a document from my screen. something like Sales Order, where user can click on Print Preview button and it will print the sales order confirmation preview..
KC

Where do you want to execute this print/print preview? Inside Sales Order?
If that is the case use the print event, now if you have your own form and is separate of any of the SAP B1 system forms, then you will have to use the menu event and evaluate when they have press the print button (which you also probably will have to make sure that is active).

Why a " # " is coming while printing chinese characters from SAP script?

Hi All,
Facing one issue.
We have a SAP script for printing delivery note thru T-code VL03N. The script has chinese characters in it.
When I print this form the chinese characters that are hardcoded in the script can be seen in the print out but the ones which are coming from the table cannot be seen instead they are repalced by " # ".
Strangely, when a debug the script or see a print preview on the screen they can be seen as it is with no problem.
Only when I print it, on the paper print they are seen as # but the characters that are hardcoded in the script can be seen clearly on paper.
Secondly, in Transaction FB03 which is for display of list of documents it too has some chinese characters and when I print this directly from the t-code doing Shift-F1 ( no SAP script or form is involved in this case) then the same case is there the chinese characters get replaced by a " # ".
Any inputs or views are welcome.
Please suggest.
Thanks.
Cordially,
Saurabh.
