Since XFP uses spool processing, at least one printer of device type XFP must be set up in the system.
Context
Applications outside of the SAP system can process form data if you use the XFP output. In the XFP output, all form data is displayed in XML format. The output does not contain any layout information for the form. XFP output corresponds to XSF output for Smart Forms and RDI output for SAPscript.
Procedure
Set up the XFP output of the form in the calling application program.
Use one of the following options for the output of the XML data:
XML data stream with context evaluation
The data stream describes the structure of the PDF-based form at runtime with the data integrated from the application program. This means the form context is already evaluated, together with all its conditions.
XML data stream without context evaluation
The data stream contains the data from the application program, but the form context has not been evaluated.
