You can start with this:

PARAMETERS: spoolid LIKE tsp01-rqident OBLIGATORY.   "DEFAULT 9429.

DATA BEGIN OF pdf_table OCCURS 0.
        INCLUDE STRUCTURE tline.
DATA END   OF pdf_table.

DATA pdf_fsize TYPE i.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF'
     EXPORTING
          src_spoolid   = spoolid
          no_dialog     = 'X'
     IMPORTING
          pdf_bytecount = pdf_fsize
     TABLES
          pdf           = pdf_table
     EXCEPTIONS
          OTHERS        = 0.

CALL FUNCTION 'DOWNLOAD'
     EXPORTING
          bin_filesize = pdf_fsize
          filetype     = 'BIN'
     TABLES
          data_tab     = pdf_table.

Vara,

I see RSTXPDFT4 requires Spool Number and PDF file path... If you want a different PDF file for each spool. Write a Z* program and SUBMIT RSTXPDFT4 for each spool.

Or I guess CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF function module is being used for converting spools to PDF. Call this function module in your program for each spool.
