Generating PDF file without spool generation

Former Member — Wed, 12 Sep 2012 14:47:32 GMT

Hi,

I had data in the internal table.I need to save the data as PDF file.

currently i am using logic like this

CALL FUNCTION 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'

NEW-PAGE PRINT ON PARAMETERS lwa_params NO DIALOG.

all write statements

NEW-PAGE PRINT OFF.

and then calling CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF'

For displaying popup

CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>file_save_dialog

And finally

CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'

Here spool is generating and it is directly printing after execution of program.

I dont want spool to be generated and it should save in the presentatuion server.

Can any one help me in this regard.

Regards

Ram

I believe the only solution to convert an abap list to pdf is to generate the spool and the convert it: just like you're doing

Is this the actual problem, if yes force the non-immediate printing of the spool (IMMEDIATELY = space) and delete it after conversion to PDF (FM like RSPO_R_RDELETE_SPOOLREQ).
