SAPscript is the SAP System's own text-processing system. SAP script is tightly integrated into the SAP System.
You'll therefore be using it for many different text-processing tasks all over the SAP System. Layout sets are used
for the page layout of SAPscript documents. If a text is formatted for output to the screen or printer, it must be
assigned a layout set. If a layout set has not been assigned to a text, the layout set SYSTEM, which contains
minimal definitions for text formatting, is used Automatically.
14. You can use styles to define the formatting of the text in your documents. A style
determines text formatting by setting the paragraph and character formats used in a
document. You can, for example, use a style to highlight character strings or whole
paragraphs. You can assign a style to any text. Typically, however, you’ll use styles
primarily in the main windows of layout sets, where users type or enter text directly
in documents.
15. Header data is found in both style and layout set maintenance.
In style maintenance, it is used primarily to present important information - designed to make it easier for the
end user to select a style. The header data in layout set maintenance, on the other hand, is used for information
and control purposes.
16. Windows are defined in layout set maintenance. They represent areas which are positioned on pages as page
windows and in which text is later output. At least one window must be defined for each layout set. If not, a text
cannot be formatted by SAP script.
19. The purpose of SAP script control commands is to allow control of the output formatting. These commands are
not interpreted by the SAPscript editor, but are passed through to the SAPscript Composer for processing. The
composer is the program that converts text from the form displayed in the editor to the form used for printing.
