How To Fix SMARTFORMS395 - Notes for translation see long text

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: SMARTFORMS - Smart Forms - Form Builder

• Message number: 395

• Message text: Notes for translation see long text

What causes this issue?

The text contains all continuous texts in a Smart Form. Each continuous
text starts with an identification line with the following form:
,,<NP>/E <(>&<)>Name&</>,
whereby <(>&<)>Name& is the name of the text node in the Smart Form.
The corresponding continuous text follows the identification line. This
continuous text is divided into lines. Each line starts with a
two-character format specification, which can also be left blank, and a
72-character field for the text. A continuous text is specified in
SAPscript notation (ITF format).
A continuous text can contain symbols (notation <(>&<)>symbol&) and
character format specifications (notation <(><<)>x>, <(><<)>xy>, <(>
<<)>/>, <(>
<<)>(> und <(><<)>)>).
Note the following rules when translating a continuous text:
<ZH>Never</> change an identification line (see above). This includes
deleting and adding identification lines.
Copy the exact format specifications for the lines (two characters in
first column). If you have to insert a new line because you need more
space for the target text, leave the column for the format
specification blank.
Ensure that all symbols that appear in the source text also appear in
the target text. Copy all character format specifications in the
corresponding places in the target text (see above).
<ZH>Never</> change symbols or character format specifications.
If you require more space for the target text than is available in the
source text, simply insert new lines.
