Convert Smartforms to PDF

 

一：

When calling the function module generated by smart form , save it as a PDF format

 

 export certain parameters to the generated function module.

 

a) Control_Parameters:“Getotf” =‟X‟.

 

b) Output_options: To print settings. For this we have to pass tddest = 'LP01‟.

 

c) JOB_Ouput_Info: To import the table in the OTF format.

 

Now we can convert the OTF table into PDF format using function module 'Convert_OTF' and save it using 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'. 4

 

二：

combine multiple Smartforms

 

1 OTFDATA type ITCOO . ITCOO has two fields TDPRINTCOM。 

2 For every Smartform output in its OTF equivalent, TDPRINTCOM begins and ends with „//‟. only one pair of „ //‟ to mark the beginning and end of the table. TDPRINTCOM value for end-of-page will be “EP‟.

 

3. the beginning and end markers (“//‟) for subsequent smartforms should be removed and appended after "EP‟ command in the OTF table.

 

 

 Similarly we can combine multiple smart forms by removing "//‟ and append them using "EP‟ and convert from OTF format to PDF using Convert_OTF and save as PDF file using GUI_DOWNLOAD.
