Hi,

You need to use the Function Module CONVERT_OTF.

Please check the below code

REPORT zsuresh_test.

Variable declarations

DATA:

w_form_name TYPE tdsfname VALUE 'ZSURESH_TEST',

w_fmodule TYPE rs38l_fnam,

w_cparam TYPE ssfctrlop,

w_outoptions TYPE ssfcompop,

W_bin_filesize TYPE i, " Binary File Size

w_FILE_NAME type string,

w_File_path type string,

w_FULL_PATH type string.

Internal tables declaration

Internal table to hold the OTF data

DATA:

t_otf TYPE itcoo OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE,

Internal table to hold OTF data recd from the SMARTFORM

t_otf_from_fm TYPE ssfcrescl,

Internal table to hold the data from the FM CONVERT_OTF

T_pdf_tab LIKE tline OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.

This function module call is used to retrieve the name of the Function
module generated when the SMARTFORM is activated

CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'

EXPORTING

formname = w_form_name

VARIANT = ' '
DIRECT_CALL = ' '

IMPORTING

fm_name = w_fmodule

EXCEPTIONS

OTHERS = 3

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno

WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.

ENDIF.

Calling the SMARTFORM using the function module retrieved above
GET_OTF parameter in the CONTROL_PARAMETERS is set to get the OTF
format of the output

w_cparam-no_dialog = 'X'.

w_cparam-preview = space. " Suppressing the dialog box

it is always suggested to start from scratch and develop the Adobeform, isntead of migrating from smartform to Adobeform.

Just check these for basics of Adobeforms.
