Smartform to ZPL

0 Kudos

Hello everyone,

I have ZPL code that goes from SAP to the Zebra printer using ZPL.

The request is to make it pass by SMARTFORMS and not sapscript as it is becoming obsolete.

In SAP i've got the reports that create the spool and a table that contains all the instruction coded in ZPL.

What kind of path should i follow?

Thanks to everyone.

Do not try to report the ZPL code into a Smartforms

You will have to rebuild the form with the Smartforms tool (I hope for you there is no 90° text orientation)

If you can, maybe propose it, do it in Adobe form, you will not have any problem of rotation
