Hi Raj,

Create a Spool request while running the smartform.

Go to Se38.

call the report RSTXPDFT4.

Give the Spool Request no and execute to get the .pdf file.

Reward if its useful

You must generate an SPOOL order from the SmartForm and then call program RSTXPDFT4 to create the PDF...

You can also call FM CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF.

Summury: Converting the smartfrom to PDF is process of 3 simple steps.

• Calling the Smart form, then it returns the OTF data in Return.

• Converting the OTF data into required format using the Function Module CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF.

• Download the File
