Bitmap documentation

Hi,

I can use bitmap command in SAPSCRIPT like

BITMAP <xyz> OBJECT GRAPHICS ID BMAP TYPE BMON DPI nnn

but I never found any documentation explaining the syntax and parameters. Are there other objets defined except GRAPHICS, other IDs except BMAP and other TYPEs except BMON?

As far as I know the DPI can be selectzed as supported by the printer used but I don't know exactly.

More information especially about where SAP documents it are highly welcome!

Regards,

Clemens

The syntax structure is pretty close to the same as including text, with a name, object and id. In this case we are using the BITMAP statement, where the OBJECT is always GRAPHICS, of course the name varies, and the ID is always BMAP, the type can be BMON for monochrome, or BCOL for color. If you uploaded to SE78 as a color graphic, then use BCOL, if you uploaded as black/white, then use BMON. Make sense?

Hi Rich,

thanks a lot, that's a little more than I knew already. Obviously SAP never documented the BITMAP command - shame on them!.

Sorry, can't give you points: I can only see your reply as long as I am logged off. As soon as I logon, the reply is missing (bug or feature?).
