Smartform generating more than one page while printing

Former Member — Wed, 10 Feb 2010 10:23:32 GMT

Good evening everyone.

I have created a smartform and now I am trying to print it. I have executed RSTXPDFT4 program in SE38 and entered the spool number and saved my smartform. But now my smartform is having more number of pages even though in print preview there is only one page. The same page is repeating again and again. Whats might be the problem? Please help.

Hope you are not passing anyting to this field in you Smartform interface.


OUTPUT_OPTIONS-TDCOPIES = 3 .  ( Number of Copies to be generated at Printer level)

In the above case even though only one spool is created 3 copies will be printed at the printer.

Please check if you have not defined the next page for the last page .Also i suspect there might be problem with Printer settings ask you basis to look in this.

Ya thats correct. Please mention the number of copies as 1.

OUTPUT_OPTIONS-TDCOPIES = 1.

Hi Antony,

Where can we find this OUTPUT_OPTIONS-TDCOPIES = 3 .

where should I give the number of copies. While seeing print preview it is askinf for no of copies, at that time i gave 1 only.

Check your spool before issuing print.

Goto SP01/SP02->There is an option to Print it with Changed Parameters ( Shift + F1) ->Here you can see Number of Copies.

Check if its 1.

If its 1 and still you are getting more than on copies i guess its some other problem

Hi Antony,

Thanks very much.

As I said before when executing RSTXPDFT4 and trying to save the smartform to my system then it is showing many pages and that too the first page is not at all the output of my smartform and the rest are my smartform output which is repeating. I don't know from where it has come. I think there is some problem in my smartform itself.

But if I go into SP01 then it is showing only one page that too the first page which is not my smartform output.

Hi experts,

Reopening the post.

Actually I understood what the problem is but I am with no answer. The problem is,

suppose my smartform is having 2 pages output when I am trying to save the smartform as PDF after doing some modifications with the spool number the older pages are also coming. That's why I am getting more number of pages. Please someone help me solve the issue.
