Our order confirmation letters are being generated and transferred to SAPConnect. The problem is the format is being converted from SAPScript to OTF. I need to convert the format from SAPScript to text. I am using the program RVADOR01, form routine ENTRY and calling a form to generate the output. I was attempting to add a function module 'CONVERT_OTF_MEMORY' to the program for the conversion. Do you have any suggestions?

Here is some sample code for achieving manual conversion to the OTF format.
* In case of more than 10 pages:
- Check the spool request
- Click Edit -> OTF display -> No. of OTF pages
* Convert SAP Script to text:
- Display the spool request
- Then click Goto -> List display

Automatic conversion to the OTF format:
tables: tline.
data:   begin of int_tline1 occurs 100.
             include structure tline.
data:   end of int_tline1.
call function 'OPEN_FORM'
                 device         = 'OTF_MEM'
          .........................................
* after CLOSE_FORM
call function 'CONVERT_OTF_MEMORY'
     exporting
          format                = 'ASCII'
          max_linewidth         = 132
     tables
           lines                 = int_tline1
     exceptions
          err_max_linewidth        = 1
          err_format                    = 2
          err_conv_not_possible = 3
          others                          = 4.
* write the text file to spool
loop at int_tline1.
   if int_tline1-tdline = space.
      skip.
   else.
      write:/ int_tline1-tdline.
   endif.
endloop.
