Adobe forms

[Former Member]

Hi,

I'm trying to develop a program in abap that creates an adobe form, but i have the next problem.

The first time i executed the program everything was ok, and there was a message saying that a PDF file was created, but in the next executions the program seems to do nothing.

Can anyone help me?

here is the source code:

REPORT ZPRUEBA_PDF.

data:

data_tab type table of x255,

texto(20),

fm_name type rs38l_fnam,

fp_outputparams type sfpoutputparams,

fp_docparams type sfpdocparams,

fp_result type fpformoutput,

interface_type type fpinterfacetype.

CALL FUNCTION 'FP_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'

EXPORTING

I_NAME = 'Z_PRUEBA_PDF'

• IMPORTING

IMPORTING

E_FUNCNAME = fm_name

E_INTERFACE_TYPE = interface_type.

fp_outputparams-nodialog = 'X'.

fp_outputparams-GETPDF = 'X'.

texto = 'esto es una pqdwqrueba'.

call function 'FP_JOB_OPEN'

CHANGING

ie_outputparams = fp_outputparams

EXCEPTIONS

cancel = 1

usage_error = 2

system_error = 3

internal_error = 4

others = 5.

• Set form language and country (->form locale)

fp_docparams-langu = 'E'.

fp_docparams-country = 'US'.

fp_docparams-FILLABLE = 'X'.

call function fm_name

EXPORTING

/1bcdwb/docparams = fp_docparams

Z_VNDBNK = texto

IMPORTING

/1BCDWB/FORMOUTPUT = fp_result

EXCEPTIONS

usage_error = 1

system_error = 2

internal_error = 3

others = 4.

call function 'FP_JOB_CLOSE'

EXCEPTIONS

usage_error = 1

system_error = 2

internal_error = 3

others = 4.

thanx

Hi,

Do not specify the foll:

fp_outputparams-nodialog = 'X'.

fp_outputparams-GETPDF = 'X'.

Now when u run the program, there will be a popup for printing the pdf

Put PDF1 as the device type and click on print preview, you will be able to see the pdf.

Reema,

First of all thanks for your answer, now I have the next problem. I've created the interface and the contexte associated to the interface. As you can see in the source code i posted. But when I call the function module that generates the form, the fp_result-PDF returns nothing.

It seems that the form is not being created. Can anyone help me?

Thanx.

If you want to read the PDF instead of showing it, set PDF = X in the fpouparamaters
