Dear All,

My requirement is print a smartform designed in landscape but to print in portrait mode as user feeding paper in line printer in such a way.(Paper having logo and some text preprinted)

I have designed smartform with page format DINA4 (landscape) and is working fine with all other printers.

Kindly help me how to archive this.

Thanks in advance.

Amrendra.

Create an Option for Portrait printing also in your program and call another smartform for it with Portrait page format .

Hi Amrendra,

Checkout your printer setting. If it is in Portrait mode, change it to Landscape mode, as your smartform is in landscape mode. Both the smartform and printer should be insync. This might solve your issue.
And as far as I know, if you want to feed the printer with the document rotated vertically like the one you posted earlier, it's only possible with images. And you cannot rotate the smartform while printing.

Thanks All.

Issue resolved.

I have created one page format in using Tcode SPAD like below and created form with page format ZPFDO(Portrait). Its working fine with all printers now.

Format	P	L	Width	Height
ZPFDO		X	00297 MM	00215 MM
ZPFDO	X		00297 MM	00215 MM

Thanks,

Amrendra
