WWI: Convert EHS-Reports from RTF to PDF when Displaying (FinalReport) on the fly

[Former Member]

Hello everybody,

we use WWI to create EH&S reports and store them as .RTF in SAP DMS/KPRO as the documents are parameterized. When genereting the final report by displaying in CG50/CG54 we would like to convert the rtf- to a pdf-file on the fly.

I have searched this issue and got the following information:

* It is possible to generate a pdf in report-shipping and report-export by using Word2010 and the SAP Customizing regarding report-shipping (OSS 1535067).

* In thread http://scn.sap.com/thread/1081197 is mentioned, that it is possible for displaying on the fly by routing all WWI-Generations to the server
(synchrone WWI-Server) and the PrintUserExit in WWI.ini.

Is the PrintUserExit in WWI.ini in this case also called when displaying the final report in CG50/CG54 or only in Report-Shipping/-Exporting/Printing?

But using this, the section [Printers] must contain a pdf converter as it is described in documentation. Is it possible to use, instead of a printer, the
Word2010-converting-function which SAP uses when generating PDF within report-shipping (OSS 1535067).

Has anybody achieved the mentioned function?

Kind regards

Markus

Reade note 1535067 carefully!

For Word 2010 and newer no additional settings are required on WWI Server side.

Just the customizing is to be done.
