Just to complete the information. The properties can not be changed for PDF spools.

Now we have the SAP note 2462956 - Unable to edit properties in Windows print dialog pop-up, that explain this.

Dear Sriram,

Actually we need to use the device type pdf1, Because we are using adobe forms. See below image.

Then after clicking the on the document, below screen is coming.

means total 707 document. If we print directly from spool all the 707 documents printing. We want to print selectively from here. For example firstly we want to print first 100 adobe document.

How to do it. Please help me.

Regards

Asaduzzaman

Hi Asaduzzaman


1. Use the device type PDFUC


2.  Could you share the SAPGUI version & SP level? and use the PCL6 printer driver.
