ADS: com.adobe.ProcessingException: XMLFM Exception in ABAP Webdynpro

[Former Member]

Hi All,

When I test the ABAP Webdynpro with Adobe form embeded in it. I get very unreliable results. When trying to bring up the forms, sometimes, it comes up the 2nd attempt, sometimes after several attempts.

And the error message is :

ADS: com.adobe.ProcessingException: XMLFM Exception - PDF render operation exception, reason code: 20484 : Font Helvetica_Normal_Normal could not be found(200,101)

I have checked several notes: 944221, 717568 etc........but no use.

I also have checked the test programes in SA38, user account, sicf services and destinations. It seems everything is ok except the program FP_CHECK_DESTINATION_SERVICE in SA38. The test result is the same as the unreliable result of the ABAP webdynpro app.

Any usefull hints to solve this problem..thanks in advance

Ugh, I am not sure what to do. Is that possible your basis guys are performing some updates/ patches at the moment? Or do you have more than a single ADS? Otherwise I run out of pieces of advise. Otto

Hello,

the message tells you about one (of possible many) problem. You must maintain your fonts to fix the message. Or there is a single option (I use this when I am in a hurry and don´t have access to the customers basis) - change the fonts: Use for example Myriad Pro, that always worked for me.

Use this help: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwmobile71/helpdata/en/37/504b8cbc2848a494facfdc09a359b1/frameset.htm

or wander around for other useful hints and tips.

Hi Otto,

Thanks for your advice. I have also changed the font mapping file xfa.xci and change to default mapping from Arial__ to Myriad Pro__. I even added mapping arial_normal_normal to Myrial Pro_bold_italic or some other fonts. But the test result still keep unreliable. Sometimes no problem, sometimes the same error appears(Myriad Pro_normal_normal, Myrial_bold_italatic...............could not be found).

So do you have any good idea to solve this strange symptom?

Thank you very much
