Hi

I need to download the smartform in PDF format.....I got the sample code to do that on sdn itself.....

But in my case some special characters(Turkish) are not coming properly

(after executing driver program)

eg:

S#STEM NUMARASI

S#PAR### VEREN F#RMA

also it used to show the print preview screen once we execute the driver program.. but now it directly downloads without giving the option for selecting printer in print preview screen....

while in print preview its lookin just fine :

(After executing print preview through Tcode : SMARTFORMS)

WHAT TO DO IN THIS CASE??

PLS HELP..

Calling the Smart form, then it returns the OTF data in Return.

Converting the OTF data into required format using the Function Module CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF.

Hi Prashanth,

will this code will take care of special characters??

Also why the Print preview dialouge screen is not getting displayed??

Is it because some of the conr\trol parameters which we r setting??
