After generating your Smart Form, Execute it and click print it will generate one Spool request no. Note this no and goto SE38 and type RSTXPDF4 and execute it.

Now give the spool request no generated and execute. You get a Form in PDF format.

Hi asha,

To get an overview idea about Adobe forms ,

Using SFP , first you need to create a interface . in interface you can declare the import and export parameters and also the declaration part, coding etc : This is nothing but similar to Function module interface.

And now we have to create the Form which is interactive. Create the form and enter the interface name which you have created in first step, so that the parameters , declarations of fields etc : will be copied and available in the form layout. So that you can drag and drop these declared fields ( dclared fields of interface ) to the layout.

Create the context and layout in the form.

The layout generated can be previewed and saved as PDF output.

Now we need to integrate the driver program and the PDF form to get the final output as per the requirement.

On activating and executing the form you will get a function module name just similar to smartforms.

The driver program needs to call this FM.

Refer to the below sample code :

DATA : is_customer TYPE scustom.

DATA : it_bookings TYPE ty_bookings.

DATA : iv_image_url TYPE string.

DATA : iv_sending_country TYPE adrc-country.

DATA : it_sums TYPE TABLE OF flprice_t.

DATA : docparams TYPE sfpdocparams.

DATA : formoutput TYPE fpformoutput.

DATA : outputparams TYPE sfpoutputparams.

PARAMETERS : pa_cusid TYPE scustom-id.

SELECT SINGLE * FROM scustom INTO is_customer

WHERE id = pa_cusid.

SELECT * FROM sbook

INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE it_bookings

WHERE customid = pa_cusid.

outputparams-nodialog = 'X'.

outputparams-getpdf = 'X'.

*outputparams-adstrlevel = '02'.

CALL FUNCTION 'FP_JOB_OPEN'

CHANGING

ie_outputparams = outputparams

EXCEPTIONS

cancel = 1

usage_error = 2

system_error = 3

internal_error = 4

OTHERS = 5.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno

WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.

ENDIF.

docparams-langu = 'E'.

docparams-country = 'US'.

docparams-fillable = 'X'.

CALL FUNCTION '/1BCDWB/SM00000043'

EXPORTING

/1bcdwb/docparams = docparams

is_customer = is_customer

it_bookings = it_bookings

• IV_IMAGE_URL =

iv_sending_country = 'US'

• IT_SUMS =

IMPORTING

/1bcdwb/formoutput = formoutput

EXCEPTIONS

usage_error = 1

system_error = 2

internal_error = 3

OTHERS = 4

.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno

WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.

ENDIF.

CALL FUNCTION 'FP_JOB_CLOSE'

• IMPORTING

• E_RESULT =

EXCEPTIONS

usage_error = 1

system_error = 2

internal_error = 3

OTHERS = 4

.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

• MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

• WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

Hope you got an idea of genrating the PDF .

Please give points if you find it useful .

Thanks
