option1. generate a smart form or a normal abaplist and use the smart form or abaplist spool to creat the pdf.

option2. if you dont want to follow the above step you need to go for some third party tools.

using FM 'READ_TEXT', u can get the long text and WRITE as ur list output. ( normal write statement ). Then u generate a spool no. for the output u c by printing it. The same spool no. u can use to generate the PDF using RSTXPDFT4.

Hope it helps.

Hi

You should print the long text and then convert its spool by report RSTXPDFT4.

/people/sap.user72/blog/2004/11/10/bsphowto-generate-pdf-output-from-a-bsp

and the FM name i was mentioning in my earlier post is

RSPO_SX_OUTPUT_TEXTDATA

exporting

name = "LOCAL"

rows = <no of rows>

startrow = 1

title = <title>

immediately = ""

tables

text_data = datatab

importing

rqid = <returned spool number> .
