Smart forms to pdf conversion problem.

former_member196331 — Tue, 01 Sep 2015 05:39:07 GMT

Hi,

I am facing one problem. I need your valuable suggestions.

We are having one smart forms it is picking data from the eban (purchase requisition). Print has to pick material code and description.

Everything is fine. We are using so many years on words. In print preview (After run the ztcode) It is showing correctly like below

Material code is

BMX.69696.85

MBx.5258585

But smart form to pdf conversion Some lines are changing their text like first character is missing.

MX.69696.85

Bx.525858

Not all the material codes only out of 26 only 4 materials are showing wrongly. First character is missing.

I don't think the problem is because of code . Because In print preview is coming properly. After conversion to pdf it is showing wrongly.

Has any body faced this problem. I open the mm03 for this material i has not seen any thing wrong. Beside text material description is also coming

properly. Can any body tell me why this is happening.

I am taking print preview by using command Pdf! and through the spool request both are i tried. But same problem is coming.

Hi,

Pls. check if the data is properly coming in OTF.

It may be because of improper translation or incorrect language being passed to smartform.

Thanking You All..!!

Hi,

You can find OTF details in SP01, with the spool no. for your output.

To check language, check the language field in control parameters in the driver program..!!

Print preview may show correct data, even if the language is not supported by Smartform, because it gets other language specific details from Windows environment and dispaly all the characters in print preview, but does not gets windows environment while printing resulting in junk character in the print.

Thanking You All..!!

Thanks. Put some space(Maybe 0.1 CM ) on the left hand side of the field . You can create a character format in your smart style and have some space.

BTW what font you are using?

former_member196331 — Tue, 01 Sep 2015 10:04:00 GMT

But my question is other material also displaying but only 4 materials are giving the problem,

they are having same length and same type.

Re: Smart forms to pdf conversion problem.

Hi,

I believe either your Smartform is not available in the desired language or your printer does not supports this font.

Also see if are using Helve / Courier / Times Roman as your font.

You can check if OSS 1632287 / 1376997 is applicable for you.

There is one more note that exactly address your query, I do not remember the OSS No., will post, if I get it.

Thanking You All..!!

Hi,

I think the style used at text-18 level is ZMM_PURC(Check in output option of text-18) in which the paragraph P6 exits.

The problem is with your styles check the message displaying in your P6.png screen shot.

Shadab.

Hi,

I saw your are snapshot according it seems that the smartstyle from which the paragraph format P6 is used is missing .So create a smartstyle through the tcode SMARTSTYLES.

former_member196331 — Tue, 01 Sep 2015 11:11:27 GMT

HI, Thanks for your help. Zmm_purc Not available. But other style is available.

Hi, I put some space , How much i give the space it is effecting means it is moving to right side but if i take the pdf .. Same problem is coming.

But some thing i had found. While taking the print preview not pdf.

It is showing the output devices .. If i select LP04. Please have a look on below attached image.

Data is coming like this.

Actual Material Code :: ВМ5X0.86ЕX10.26.11

AT LP04 :: ##5x0.86#10.26.11

AT LP01 :: 5x0.8610.26.11.

Remaining 4 materials are also same thing.

May i know what is the problem. Is output device problem or any other thing.

The above material i had manually copy pasted from Production to development. Same thing is happend.
