Write the output to spool in ABAP and then convert it to PDF and attach? Would that be acceptable?

Hi,

You can create a style with the required font size and other formatting parameters. Use the style in SO10 to create standard text SO10->Format->Change Style.

Hi,

Use HTM format instead of RAW and use HTML tag to format the output.

I think you want the email to be displayed in such a way that semicolons are vertically aligned.

Arial font:

total file          : 3
success file        : 3

Same text in Courier New font:

total file          : 3
success file        : 3

Try sending email in HTML format. The semicolons will be aligned when monospaced font like Courier New is used.

SPAN tag in email could have font specified like this:

<span style="font-family: courier new,courier;">

This wiki article has html email example that specifies font using SPAN tag.

From my experience,

You can't just write output. In order to be successful, for instance with what Alok suggested, you'd have to do character point counting and variably adjust your tabs. That would be insanely difficult. You could get it to work most of the time without that but is wouldn't work all of the time.

Prashant's is the simplest solution for writing directly into the body. You just got to know your HTML!

My method is something that you will need in the future, so it could be a good thing to traverse to. It's one of those things where you need to get a feel for how far you are reaching and not over reach.

Hope this Helps!
