OPEN ADOBE READER from ABAP

[Former Member]

Hello,

with function module convert_otf we create a PDF from sapscript

with function module gui_download we are able to save this PDF-document on the file system.

But we don´t want to save it, we just want to open it directly in ADOBE reader. Is this possible with some ABAP function modules?

If yes, how?

thanks a lot.

Kind regards

Manfred

Take a look at FM SSFCOMP_PDF_PREVIEW.

Dear Manni,

Follow below steps,

Set output parameters and open the spool job using FM FP_JOB_OPEN like below,

CALL FUNCTION 'FP_JOB_OPEN'
    CHANGING
      ie_outputparams = fp_outputparams

Determine the name of the generated function module using below FM,

      CALL FUNCTION 'FP_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'
        EXPORTING
          i_name     = p_tnapr_sform
        IMPORTING
          e_funcname = p_func_module_name.

Call the generated functional module like below,

CALL FUNCTION ls_function
 EXPORTING
          /1bcdwb/docparams    = fp_docparams
          ......

Close the spool job using FM FP_JOB_CLOSE

CALL FUNCTION 'FP_JOB_CLOSE'

Thanks.

option 1,

save in a temp location like sapworkdir and display it using demo code SAP_PDF_VIEWER_DEMO. then while coming out from the program, delete the temp file.

option 2, store it in app server and display it using webdynpro.
