Hello Murali,

Please have a look at the <a href="https://media.sdn.sap.com/javadocs/NW04s/SPS7/wd/com/sap/tc/webdynpro/pdfobject/api/package-summary.html">PDF object API</a>. There is a "printNotAllowed" option (WDInteractiveFormPermissionModes.PRINT_NOT_ALLOWED).

Hi

I am not able to use both of them. Might be I am not doing it the right way. Can anyone help me out by guiding me. All I want is just a simple PDF form with either no Toolbar or simply hiding print button. The responses were good, but I dont know how to use them.

I am on NW04s SP8.

Regards,

Murali.

Hi Boyz,

Sorry to interrupt in between...just wanna know if the same is possible in ABAP WD's...Bcos it's a very common requirement...

And I dont find this UI Element HideReaderToolbar in ABAP WD Dev environment...

I tried using this script in the all possible events of the form

app.eval("event.target.SAPToolbarHide();")

and even this also...

app.eval("SAPToolbarHide();")

Hello Raja Sekhar,

This object is not available anymore in Designer 7.1. This setting can now be achieved through a web dynpro (Java) API (interface <a href="https://media.sdn.sap.com/javadocs/NW04s/SPS7/wd/com/sap/tc/webdynpro/clientserver/adobe/pdfdocument/api/IWDPDFDocumentAppearance.html">IWDPDFDocumentAppearance</a>). In web dynpro ABAP you would need to use the method handler of the <b>InteractiveForm</b> UI element (IF_WD_IACTIVE_FORM_METHOD_HNDL, SET_HIDE_TOOLBARS).

Philipp

Hey Raja,

Here you Go....

You can hide the toolbar using method SET_HIDE_TOOLBARS of the UI element interface InteractiveForm IF_WD_IACTIVE_FORM_METHOD_HNDL:

lr_method_handler->set_hide_toolbars( abap_true 😞

Hi all;

I got it by doing this:

1. In Adobe Interactive Form editor I added a simple button.

2. I setted it as "invisible"

3. I edited its "calculate" event by writing:

var stopToolbar = app.setTimeOut("app.eval("SAPToolbarHide();");", 1);

That's all, hope it is of your help!
