Problems converting to PDF?

[Former Member]

I am converting the report documentation into PDF. It all works fine but the print format from PDF is very very small. I am not using SMARTFORMS but rather calling FM to get the report documentation and then converting into PDF. I am attaching the code below, please run the code and you will understand what i mean when you try to print from the converted PDF file. Please give me some suggestion, solution, or sample code. It will be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

Check the sample code,

That's because, PRINT_TEXT fm not inserting any page breaks, and PDF converter is not separating the spool in to different pages. Work around is, in the adobe reader print window, select None in Page scalling field.
