Printing Inquiry

Hi to all gurus,

I have a report that uses line-size 200 and it prints on letter size paper using a very small fonts. I tried adjusting it to 255 hoping it will print on a legal size paper and enlarge the font size accordingly, but i was wrong. It still prints using a letter size paper but with even more small fonts.

Anybody have an idea how I can have the fonts bigger when the report is printed?

Thanks,

Ricky

Hi Ricky,

Hope this helps you.

<b>When processing a print request:</b>

You can display a list of permitted format types to select from. For ABAP lists select format types beginning with X; for presentation graphics, those beginning with G. For SAPscript requests, select one of the other format types.

<b>Note:</b> For lists without a specified width, the spool system uses the "X" format corresponding to the width of the SAPgui frontend window. The default width is 85 characters. Therefore, the spool system uses the format X_65_132 and outputs the report in landscape using a smaller font size.

If the last five columns of the report are empty, you can output the report in portrait. To do this, use the format X_65_80 and select ENTER, if a warning message is displayed.

<b>When selecting spool requests in the output controller:</b>

Enter a format type, in order to select only those spool requests that use this format type. Use Possible entries to display a list of available formats.

Thanks for the info, but I tried selecting one of the "X" format (i.e. my report uses "x_65_200" and changed it to "x_65_255") it only made the font smaller but was still printed on a letter size paper.
