Pint Jpeg file in ABAP report

Former Member · ‎2003 Dec 04

Dear all,

Does anyone have experience with printing a jpeg file in ABAP report. I need to deal with mass printing as well. Any suggestion ?

I don't know of any way to do this in standard ABAP list processing. You can include standard SAP Icons, but I think that is the extent of what the ABAP List Processor is able to do.

In the past I have used SAPScript or Smartforms for this kind of thing. It is a little more work to lay things out in these tools if you just have a simple report with some graphics, but it can be done. However working with many different graphics or very dynamic ones can be difficult.

Lately we I have used the SAP WebAS to do just this sort of thing. We have a 46C R/3 system but we added a stand-alone WebAS on a separate box running on 620. I write ABAP BSP applications on the WebAS and access my data from R/3 via trusted RFC. You will have considerable flexiblity when working with JPEGs from BSP. There some good WebLogs in the BSP section of SDN to get you started.

Hi,

You could also try Dynamic Documents (from4.7) for this kind of work.

Dear all,

Thanks for youe reply. We're using 4.6C. Does it means no other way to output a photo in ABAP report? Thanks anyway.

Hi,

Need little more information. What kind of report is this? If you could explain more about the business scenario we can come up with some other solution as printing jpegs with LIST is not possible.
