Dear Ankit,

Follow the steps:

1. Call the Smartform FM to get the output of the form.

2. Convert the form output in PDF form. Use FM 'CONVERT_TO_OTF'.

3. Bind this PDF data to context element.

4. On WD view layout, set the interactive form UI element.

5. Bind this UI element with the context element to which PDF source was mapped.

6. Save and activate.

Mark points if helpful.

Hi Ankit,

1.create a node(Eg:PDF) with attribute(SOURCE type xstring )

2.use Interactiveform UI element in the view

3.Bind the pdfSource property of the UI to the attribute SOURCE

4.in method write logic for call the smart form

Pass the output of the smartform function call to

function module CONVERT_OTF to convert it to PDF data.
