transfer PDF to application server

Former Member — Wed, 23 Jul 2008 12:50:46 GMT

hi all,

i'm trying to save a pdf of a smartform to the application server(unix). i'm using the function C13Z_RAWDATA_WRITE, but when opening the pdf from the application server it is blank or can't be opened. the pdf schould be transfered from the application server to an external DMS.

when i use GUI_DOWNLOAD and save it locally the PDF is ok.

has anybody an idea?

coding:

    DATA: l_pdf_xstring  TYPE xstring,
          lt_lines       TYPE TABLE OF tline,

Use OPEN DATASET... CLOSE DATASET instead of GUI_DOWNLOAD. Look up ABAP Help.

i had to use the binary pdf data (bin_file). then the upload with "open dataset" to the application server works.

    CONCATENATE '/PO/BIN_' l_doc-xekko-ebeln '.PDF' INTO h_file.


    OPEN DATASET h_file FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE.
    CHECK sy-subrc EQ 0.
    TRANSFER l_pdf_xstring  TO h_file.
    CLOSE DATASET h_file.
