Facing Formatting issue with function module 'CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF'

Former Member — Fri, 19 Aug 2011 11:16:16 GMT

HI Team,

I am currently facing an issue with the function module 'CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF'.

After convrtion of OTF to PDF,the formating is lost in the resultant PDF. Meaning, the otf is having bold in some places but the PDF is displaying the same places with normal font.

1.The font is looking different

2.In few places where it is in BOLD in spool display, it is lost in the PDF.

Please let me know the solution or workaround to fix this issue. <removed by moderator>.

Thanks,

Sathish Dasari.

Hi Sathish,

Seems like a problem of the Adobe lifecycle version you are using. However, you can try the following function module once:


CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_OTF'
 EXPORTING
   FORMAT                      = 'PDF'
   MAX_LINEWIDTH               = 256
*   ARCHIVE_INDEX               = ' '
*   COPYNUMBER                  = 0
*   ASCII_BIDI_VIS2LOG          = ' '
*   PDF_DELETE_OTFTAB           = ' '
 IMPORTING
   BIN_FILESIZE                = w_bin_filesize
*   BIN_FILE                    =
  TABLES
    OTF                         = t_otf
    LINES                       = t_pdf_tab
* EXCEPTIONS
*   ERR_MAX_LINEWIDTH           = 1
*   ERR_FORMAT                  = 2
*   ERR_CONV_NOT_POSSIBLE       = 3
*   ERR_BAD_OTF                 = 4
*   OTHERS                      = 5

It works 100% in normal situations but if it doesn't in your case then this has to be related to the configuration part. Hope it helps.

Best Regards,

Hi Atanu,

Thanks for your response. However, I wanted to know if any work around is available for this issue. I have checked for the OSS notes but no luck. Please let me know if you have any information on this.

Thanks,
