Hi Durga,

You can use build the OTF table and then pass the OTF table to the FM CONVERT_OTF to convert to pdf and you can use GUI_DOWNLOAD ,if you want to store it in your local PC....

hi prasad,

Check this for smartform to PDF

http://www.sap4.com/wiki/index.php/Genera_PDF_a_partir_de_Smartforms

or

All you have to do is call your SF to get OTF and then concert it to PDF. Works like charm:

s_control_parameters-no_dialog = 'X'.

s_control_parameters-getotf = 'X'.

CALL FUNCTION v_func_name "call your smartform

EXPORTING

output_options = s_output_options

control_parameters = s_control_parameters

IMPORTING

job_output_info = s_job_output_info

call function 'CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF'

tables

otf = s_job_output_info-otfdata

lines = t_pdf

and if u need more u can check below links also

Get the name of the generated function module using the function module SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME (see also: Integrating the Smart Form into the Application).

To get a device type suitable for the current language, call the function module SSF_GET_DEVICE_TYPE.

Set the device type using the parameter TDPRINTER of the standard parameter OUTPUT_OPTIONS (see also: Output Options). Transfer this parameter, together with the parameters for the OTF output, to the generated Smart Forms function module, as described under Returning a Form as a Table to the Application Program.

Get the OTF output from table OTFDATA of the standard parameter JOB_OUTPUT_INFO (see also: Querying the Output Result).

To convert the OTF output to PDF, transfer the OTF table to the function module CONVERT_OTF. To do this, set the parameter FORMAT to 'PDF'. The output can be returned either as a binary string (parameter BIN_FILE) or as a character table (parameter LINES). SAP recommends the first variant.

You can then store the PDF output using the function module GUI_DOWNLOAD, for example, as a local file on your PC
