SO10 - Print preview

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am creating text for SAP script through SO10 and I see that the print preview of the text on SO10 ( not in the script preview ) is different then the one in the SO10 editor. The tab 's are shifted and the spacing is different on the print preview, why do we have this difference on the same t-code. Any ideas ?

Hi,

The text will always come like this because of the left margin of the page. It starts from little ahead. You can try with 2 lines. The second will also start begin from that much space.

Dear Praneeth.

We have the same effect. The printpreview is made with the style you bind to the text. But when you print the text, the printer driver changes it. Try to print it on other printers or check the printer driver with Basis.

Hi All,

Thanks for the quick response..

The problem is not with the left or right margin ..it is with the tab space ..I gave few tabs on the editor but the print preview does not take those tabs on the preview and the worst part is the SAP script is showing me the same text as in SO10 print preview instead of the editor view. I would have ignored the print preview on SO10 but the real problem is the SAP script is also showing me the same SO10 print preview.

Hi,

In that case I would advise you to try to put a command to put in a STYLE before the SO10. Often the paragraph and character formatting that are there in SO10 text are not included in Script in such cases spacing and other issue show up try to declare a Z-STYLE and use that in SO10 also force the use of the style by STYLE COMMAND in script. Check the link

Also do your changes in OLD line editor where you can see the formatting commands for both SO10 and SAPScript.

Hi,

I guess you are checking print preview with different output device in both cases.

Give the same Printer name in both cases in 'Output device' and then do the 'Print Preview'.

You'll not see any change in output settings.

Hi,

I am on SO10 so I am using only one printer to see the preview ..I am making the changes on the editor and viewing the print preview on SO10 itself. I tried with different printers but it is the same error.

The print preview on SO10 is bonded with the style used on SO10 editor ? I have created a style with my own tabs and adjusted the text as required on the editor but the same is not carried on to the preview on SO10.
