Help me

There is small requirement for one of the project

- Read a PDF file from Application Server.

- Print this file to Printer.

We can read the file in Binary form Using “Read Dataset” ABAP command.

We need to print this data. This cannot be printed as a normal ASCII data, as it contains a lot of control characters and graphic images. This data is in PDF format, which can be understood by Windows.

We need to print it bypassing any printer conversion happening in SAP – possibly as RAW data.

Any idea on how this can be done?

Please use a speaking topic, not "help me", it will make reading threads easier

Do you create that PDF in the SAP system?

Depending on your platform one can imagine doing something like

- SM49 - create a new system command to print the file

- write a small program that execute that program to print the resulted file or add it to the program, that creates the PDF
