try with this

data: l_pdf_xstring type xstring,

lt_lines type table of tline,

ls_line type tline,

l_pdf_len type i,

itab type TSFOTF,

witab type ITCOO,

tmp_line type STRING,

tmp_header type STRING.

tmp_header = 'smarforms to PDF'.

tmp_line = file_content.

CONCATENATE

tmp_header

tmp_line

INTO tmp_line IN CHARACTER MODE.

APPEND tmp_line TO itab.

call function 'CONVERT_OTF'

exporting

format = 'PDF'

importing

bin_filesize = l_pdf_len

bin_file = l_pdf_xstring

tables

otf = itab

lines = lt_lines

exceptions

err_max_linewidth = 1

err_format = 2

err_conv_not_possible = 3

err_bad_otf = 4

others = 5

Hi Nagesh

You can try changing the default format (OTF) to PDF using transaction SCOT

Hi,

Here is the sample code.

DATA: i_otf TYPE itcoo OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE,

i_tline TYPE TABLE OF tline WITH HEADER LINE,

Work Area declarations

w_ctrlop TYPE ssfctrlop,

w_compop TYPE ssfcompop,

w_return TYPE ssfcrescl,

Variables declarations

v_form_name TYPE rs38l_fnam,

v_len_in LIKE sood-objlen,

v_len_out LIKE sood-objlen,

v_len_outn TYPE i.

Step 1:

call function 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'

exporting

formname = 'ZZZ_TEST2'

importing

fm_name = v_form_name

exceptions

no_form = 1

no_function_module = 2

others = 3.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno

WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.

ENDIF.

w_ctrlop-getotf = 'X'.

w_ctrlop-no_dialog = 'X'.

w_compop-tdnoprev = 'X'.

Step 2:

CALL FUNCTION v_form_name

EXPORTING

control_parameters = w_ctrlop

output_options = w_compop

user_settings = 'X'

IMPORTING

job_output_info = w_return

EXCEPTIONS

formatting_error = 1

internal_error = 2

send_error = 3

user_canceled = 4

OTHERS = 5.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno

WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.

ENDIF.

Step 3:

i_otf[] = w_return-otfdata[].

Step 4:

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_OTF'

EXPORTING

format = 'PDF'

max_linewidth = 132

IMPORTING

bin_filesize = v_len_in

TABLES

otf = i_otf

lines = i_tline

EXCEPTIONS

err_max_linewidth = 1

err_format = 2

err_conv_not_possible = 3

OTHERS = 4.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno

WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.

ENDIF.

Hope this helps.
