hi,

Form printing covers creating and maintaining a form for mass printing in SAP Systems. This

includes design and layout of the form as well as form logic.

The layout determines the page structure, that is the number of differently structured pages and

the positions of the output areas on these pages. Within the output areas, you use tables,

paragraphs, paragraph formats and character formats to structure and format texts and data.

On the pages of a form you determine the page layout and the sequence of pages with different

structures.

The page layout includes the page format (for example, DIN A4, Letter, DIN A5 landscape) and

the position of the windows on a page.

In a Smart Form you describe:

The layout of your form (element positions on a page)

Individual elements you want to display (text, graphics, addresses, tables, and so on)

the form logic you use, for example, to read application data from internal tables, to introduce

conditions, and to control process flows

a form interface to transfer application data to the form definition

You use the Form Painter to design the layout of the pages of a Smart Form. You can include

windows and graphics on a page, determine their positions and choose the window sizes.

Hope this helps, Do reward.
