Problem in converting spool to PDF file

[Former Member]

Hi guys,

My spool contains Russian characters which are shown as one special char in pdf file. I guess the russian char. are not recognized by pdf.

I convert the spool to pdf using following FM

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF'

EXPORTING

src_spoolid = wa_spool-spool

no_dialog = ' '

IMPORTING

pdf_bytecount = v_numbytes

pdf_spoolid = v_pdfspoolid

btc_jobname = v_jobname

btc_jobcount = v_jobcount

TABLES

pdf = pdf.

Then i download the file using FM:

CALL FUNCTION 'WS_DOWNLOAD'

EXPORTING

bin_filesize = v_numbytes

filename = v_return1

filetype = 'BIN'

TABLES

data_tab = pdf

Help me....

Hi,

Please pass the value of DESTINATION DEVICE as well. The device should be supporting Russian characters.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF'

EXPORTING

src_spoolid = wa_spool-spool

no_dialog = ' '

<b>DST_DEVICE =</b>

IMPORTING

pdf_bytecount = v_numbytes

pdf_spoolid = v_pdfspoolid

btc_jobname = v_jobname

btc_jobcount = v_jobcount

TABLES

pdf = pdf.
