Hi everyone
We are on V7r3
I have been asked to look into creating and e-mailing our invoices as pdf's from the AS/400
I already knew about the changes to CPYSPLF, so I thought that I would look into that
The command I used was
CPYSPLF FILE(INVOICE) TOFILE(*TOSTMF) JOB(192813/CREDSALE36/JKEITTB) TOSTMF('/ashore/invoice.pdf') WSCST(*PDF) STMFOPT(*REPLACE)
The INVOICE spool file has an overlay
I then used this command to e-mail it to myself
SNDSMTPEMM RCP(('ashore@xxxxxxxx')) SUBJECT('Sending a pdf file') ATTACH(('/ashore/invoice.pdf'))
When I received the e-mail, the overlay was there, but the characters (print) were not where it should be - in the boxes
The characters were "pushed" to the left
I googled CPYSPLF and came across this web page
https://www.rpgpgm.com/2014/03/creating-pdf-files-from-spool-files.html
and I checked the ptf's mentioned
Both of the ptf's mentioned there are on our system
5770TS1 *COMPATIBLE IBM Transform Services for i
5770TS1 *COMPATIBLE Transforms - AFP to PDF Transform
Does anyone have any ideas as to what I did wrong or is missing?
As always, all answers gratefully accepted
