    Hi Santosh,

    You can just just print a smart form & that will generate a spool no. You can use that spool no as an input to the report RSTXPDFT4 to display the from in acrobat format.

      Hi Santosh,

      The spool no would be visible to you when you print the form @ the bottom of your window like you get standard messages. You can use the same as input to the report RSTXPDFT4.

      Do let me know if you have any other doubts.

      Regards,

      Chetan.

    Hi,

    Call this function module immediately after you get the output from your smart form function module.

    Your smartform function module will have an output parameter <b>job_output_info </b>

    this field is a nested internal table and contain a internal table <b>OTF_DATA</b>

    CALL FUNCTION 'HR_IT_DISPLAY_WITH_PDF'

    TABLES

    otf_table = lt_otf_data (This table is the output from your smartform function module).

    Hi Santosh,

    <b>1.</b> In the smartform form function module make use of <b>JOB_OUTPUT_INFO</b> which is of type ssfcrescl.

    CALL FUNCTION <SMARTFORM_FUNC_NAME>

    EXPORTING

    control_parameters = ws_ctrlpara

    output_options = ws_opoption

    user_settings = 'X'

    IMPORTING

    <b> job_output_info = ws_opinfo</b>

    EXCEPTIONS

    formatting_error = 1

    internal_error = 2

    send_error = 3.

    After this your WS_OPINFO table gets populated with OTF output for smartform.

    <b>2.</b> Now pass <b>WS_OPINFO-OTFDATA[]</b> to function module

    <b>CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF</b>.

    This will convert OTF output to PDF form.

    CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF'

    EXPORTING

    use_otf_mc_cmd = 'X'

    IMPORTING

    bin_filesize = wl_filesize

    TABLES

    otf = wi_otfdata

    doctab_archive = wi_docs

    <b> lines = WI_MTAB_PDF</b>

    EXCEPTIONS

    err_conv_not_possible = 1

    err_otf_mc_noendmarker = 2

    OTHERS = 3.

    Here <b>WI_MTAB_PDF</b> will contain pdf output which can be downloaded.

    WI_MTAB_PDF is declared LIKE tline OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.

    <b>3.</b> This WI_MTAB_PDF can now be downloaded in pdf format using GUI_DOWNLOAD function module.

    CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'

    EXPORTING

    bin_filesize = wl_mi_bytecount

    filename = wl_mc_filename "Path where pdf file is to be downloaded

    <b> filetype = 'BIN'</b>

    TABLES

    <b> data_tab = WI_MTAB_PDF</b>

    EXCEPTIONS

    file_write_error = 1

    no_batch = 2

    gui_refuse_filetransfer = 3

    invalid_type = 4

    Hope this helps you ....

    Let me know if you nedd more inputs on this...

    Enjoy SAP.
