An export of BI report’s
output into the different format like PDF is very common. Also SAP’s reporting
frontend’s tools are offering that. In case of web reporting based on JAVA
stack an export functionality of reports is done by this library. For example BEx
Broadcaster is creating PDFs documents also by the library. The BI Export
Library is an alternative to Adobe
Document Services (ADS). However in contrast to ADS you can use the Export
Library only within application based on JAVA Stack. Technically the Library is
delivered within Business Intelligence Java Components (BI-JAVA) BI-BASE-S and
BI-WEBAPP.
To enable using of the
Library you need to maintain field SAP_EXPORT_LIB in table RSPOR_T_PORTAL via
TA SM30. By default the Library delivers only font for export TrueType font
"Arial Unicode J". If you want to use other fonts you need to put
them as files into the folder. Then maintain the directory name into the same
table in field FONT_PATH. You can maintain also default font by specifying it
in field DEFAULT_FONT I the same table.
