Checkbox not appearing in smart form print preview

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am using a check box (sap symbol SYM_LARGE_SQUARE) in a smart form.

When I print the smart form, Check box appears in the print out. But for print preview its not appearing.

How can I make the checkbox appear in the print preview..?

• Create a smart form with all necessary windows containing information to be displayed.
• In order to print the check box selects the required window for e.g. CHEAKBOX window .
• In general attribute Tab insert the SAP Symbol by clicking in Editor Button  
• Click on include-> Characters ->SAP symbol pop up screen will appear.
• Double click on selected checkbox symbol you can see the code 697 in editor.
• Text 697 id the code for selected checkbox.
• Repeat this procedure for unchecked box (Code 727).

Note: You can not see the cheakbox in printpreview. Please run tcode PDF! to view form in pdf formate.Cheak box will be available in PDF form.

Hi,

SAP symbols are not shown in print preview. But they are appearing in the print out.

As an alternate solution, we can use square brackets as shown below.

Instead of un-checked check box, we can use [ ]

Instead of checked check box, we can use [X]

Hi Janakiraman,

I think SAP symbols cant be viewed from print preview but can be displayed only from printing. Check this link:
