As i convert this otf to a pdf file, the created pdf file is corrupted. Do you know any solution on this? Is this might be a configutration problem?.</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 10 Sep 2007 03:19:51 GMT https://community.sap.com/t5/application-development-and-automation-discussions/junk-otf-raw-data/m-p/2745437#M638154 Former Member 2007-09-10T03:19:51Z
