Former Member — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 10:44:44 GMT

Hi SDN,

I have created Interactive Adobe Form but while testing it i am not able to see the print preview of it.

I am getting following message

Cannot find PDL type for output device locl

Device type unsuitable for ADS documents

Please let me know the solution for it.

Mrutyunjaya,

Thanks for pointing in the right direction. We saw similar errors until we realized the problem was the output device we were using. This is the page that helped:

[Printing PDF-Based Forms|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/25/6fa8fd27837846990a7a6813b06f80/frameset.htm]

On this page, in the "Prerequisites" section, it states: If you output the print file using the SAP functions, you must have a PCL, PostScript, or ZPL printer, since print files can currently only be created from the PDF-based forms for these printer types. You cannot use a printer with the device type SAPWIN/SWIN.

I would award you the points if I could!

Regards,

Jill
