Hi,

YOu need to get the PDF data into an internal table ITAB_DATA & then

<b>For FAX</b>

Use FM 'INIT_TEXT' for SAP-Script Initialization.

or

OPEN_FORM , WRITE_FORM, CLOSE_FORM.

Use FM 'PRINT_TEXT' for FAX.

Pass parameters as follows :-

Exporting

DEVICE = 'TELEFAX' " For printing call the same FM again & Pass printer name

DIALOG = 'X' " To get the option of Print Preview along with the fax number on dialog box

HEADER = POPT

Importing

RESULT = PRES " of type ITCPP

Tables

LINE = ITAB_DATA.

POPT is structure of type ITCPO.

Populate following values in POPT :

POPT-TDNEWID = 'X'

POPT-TDIMMED = 'X'

POPT-TDLIFETIME = 8 "To keep 8 days in spool

POPT-TDTELENUM = <Fax Number> " Without country code

POPT-TELELAND = <Country> " Country code

Best regards,
