SAP Script Print out Error (Misaligned details)

[Former Member]

Hi Guys,

Good Day! Am having a problem regarding print out of SAPSCRIPT. In the print preview, the detail output is ok. But in the printout the detail output is misaligned.

Sample: ( Delivery Receipt)

PRINT PREVIEW

item 1 Description 1 Amount 1

item 2 Description 2 Amount 2

item 3 Description 3 Amount 3

The above sample of detail display is correct in print preview. The figure below shows how it will print out.

PRINT OUT (ERROR)

Item1 Description 1 Amount 1 Item 2 Description 2 Amount 2

Item3 Description 3 Amount 3

I only used one paragrah format for this output.

The printout is okay using laserjet printer but if we use the dotmatrix printer the above figure will be the printout which is an error. The correct printout should be the figure below:

CORRECT PRINTOUT

item 1 Description 1 Amount 1

item 2 Description 2 Amount 2

item 3 Description 3 Amount 3

SAP SYSTEM version: 4.6c

Printer: dotmatrix LX300

Can anyone help me regarding this matter? thanks.

Hi,

This might be due to the space after Amount1....If you are printing only three fields, then minimze the window width to display three fields....

Thanks,

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the immediate reply. The fields are already specified with Tabs. Still we encounter this printout error.

dotmatrix printer not supporting for your script, ask BASIS people to check the printer settings..

Hi

Check the size of the window to accomidate the 3 values and when ur looping call the correct element and in the element givea as below only using correct TAB positions so that it will print correctly

&ITAB-SPADD2& &ITAB-SPSTR1& &ITAB-ZASS&
