screen resolution

[Former Member]

Hi,

I developed an ABAP basic report in which the output appears page by page in development box. But when I moved to production box, the output is not appearing in proper page format.

I think the problem might be with the screen resolution, my dev box is 21 inch monitor and prod box is of 17 inch monitor.

If this is the case, how can I solve this problem??

Thanks,

Hi ravindra,

1. definitely monitor size cannot be the problem.

2. the problem can be in some settings.

3. may be the printer selected LOCL / other

and its settings may be different

in DEV and PRD

the problem is not with screen resolution.

check the page format of the printers , may be they are different...

may be you can find it in <b>SPAD</b>

Hi Ravindra,

1. I think the basis team might be able

to help u more properly.

2. BCos such problems also come

in sapscript / smartforms where

PRINTER settings differ in DEV and PRD

and cause minor layout problems/changes.

3. If i am able to get some more info

on settings, i will let u know.

Or lets wait for other answers!

Hi,

Amit,

Thank you for your answer.

Vijay,

what is SPAD?? where can i find this??

also i would like to know in what the basic report is related to printer settings. I am not taking any print, just I am viewing on the screen only. There itself page format is different in dev and prod boxes...

Thanks,

ok , SPAD is spool administration,

what i thought you are getting print differently..

sorry for that, then definitely it is because of screen resolution.

but if you take print out of that, you can see both will be same...

Hi,

The problem is with screen resolution only. My dev box is of 1024768 and prod is of 1152862. I changed the pixel of dev box, then its giving the same output as of prod box, that is, improper page format.

Thank you for giving ur suggestions.
