Forms 9i: Making Wingdings characters appear at runtime

I'd like to use the Wingdings and Webdings fonts to label tiny buttons in Forms 9i. I can see the pictures on the forms at forms design time, but not at runtime. How can I make these fonts to display at runtime? Thanks much.

Resty,
Wingdings is not a font know in Java. The Forms Development environment is written in C and able to show all Windows fonts. Java however is limited. You can see the actual set of Java fonts in teh registry.dat file in the forms90/java/.../registry directory.

    (The small field at the top of questions is to type just a title; the large field is to type your full question in, along with anything else that may help us help you.)
    When you say "print", do you mean the text is correct in your InDesign file? If you export the document to a PDF, is it still correct? Final test: if you print the PDF to your printer (making sure you use the same driver and setting), is it wrong? Then it's your printer driver, trying to be smart when it should not. Locate a Settings dialog where you can switch off options such as this one. Were I a betting person, I'd tell you to look for something called "Auto-correct mirrored documents".

  • When converting report to PDF, Russian characters appears as junk in adobe

    Dear all,
    When generating reports (ver 6.0.8.14.2) with Russain characters, after coverting the report to pdf, all the Russian characters appears as junk in the adobe acrobat reader. Please help how to resolve this issue.
    Note: Initially in the report I used arial font and the report runtime preview displayed all Russain characters as junk, but when I use the MS sans serif font all the russain characters appears properly in the reports runtime preview.
    Question: HOW TO DISPLAY RUSSIAN CHARACTERS PROPERLY IN PDF
    Regards
    Binu

    Hi Sriman.
    Thank you for the reply, but that does not solve my problem. I know that there is a size A4 210x297 mm, but i cannot use that as i have to use the other one only.
    It is very surprising, that i dont have that option in WAD while designing, but get that option when i execute the query.
    I guess i will have to post it to SAP, so they can create a note for this.

  • Junk characters appearing

    hi folks,
    Junk characters appearing in the text file when the korean language is downloaded from the sap internal table.
    please help to resolve this.
    Regards,
    Rohan.

    Hi Rohan,
    Can you debug and check if the junk characters are appearing in the internal tables at runtime?
    It could be possible that your output file, when opened with Notepad or Word, does not recognise the Korean language characters.
    Please do revert back if this isn't the case...
    Cheers,
    Shailesh.

  • Create a dynamic form where selected text boxes appears, based on options chosen in a drop-down box

    HELP!!! Can anyone please provide some guidance on how to create a dynamic form where selected text boxes appears, based on options chosen in a drop-down box.
    I have a form which – based on the department that's selected from a drop-down box – will have different form fields/text boxes, etc, made available.
    Is this possible in LiveCycle, if so, can you please provide the script/info - as needed.
    Thanks,

    In the preOpen event of the second dropdown list you put something like (in formCalc):
    if (dropdown1 == 1) then
    $.clearItems()
    $.setItems("Year, 2 Year,  3 Year")
    elseif (dropdown1 == 2) then
    $.clearItems()
    $.setItems("3 Year,  4 Year")
    endif

  • Garbled characters appear in PDF's generated in Acrobat XI 11.0.10

    Adobe: when generating PDF's using Acrobat XI 11.0.10, garbled characters appear on complete lines on otherwise legible generated pages. Adobe Acrobat says no updates are available. Please advise what workaround(s) should be used to prevent this. The problem seems to be increasing lately.
    Platform: Windows 7.
    Steps to troubleshoot: have no idea where to start other than updating Acrobat which has already been done.

    You probably are using some strange fonts that Acrobat can not embed due to licensing and are not viewing with system fonts. Be sure all the fonts are embedded (document properties -- ctrl-D).

  • How can I create a long employment form without making the form widget drag?

    How can I create a long employment form without making the form widget drag?

    Sorry Sachin, I mean that I created a simple form on the page from the widget and started adding fields to it. The more fields I add the slower the delay becomes in creating a new field. Even when I try to select and drag or move an item, there's a huge delay and sometimes the program feezes,  loose what i've done and have ot restart.
    I'm doing an enployment form that has more than 20 fields, at least, and I need to be able to build the fields in separate categories, like Education, Past Employment, etc... quickly without delay issues.
    I can probably send you a snap shot of what I'm talking about if I cna post it or attach it here..?

  • Mail with French / Spanish accented characters appear as Question marks

    Hi
    I am facing issues in mails that have French / Spanish accented characters in mail subject.Accented characters appear as Question marks (?) when received in the inbox.Mail subject is read from properties file.
    Please let me know the following
    - Should I have the entries in properties file in Unicode ? For example French accent character � is represented as &#225;
    - Should I replace msg.setSubject(subject); to msg.setSubject(subject,"UTF-8");
    Please suggest.
    Below is code snippet :
         Session session = getSession();
                   // create a message
                   Message msg = new MimeMessage(session);
                   // set the from and to address
                   InternetAddress addressFrom = new InternetAddress(from);
                   InternetAddress[] addressTo = new InternetAddress[recipients.length];
                   for (int i = 0; i < recipients.length; i++)
                        addressTo[i] = new InternetAddress(recipients);
                   msg.setFrom(addressFrom);
                   msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, addressTo);
                   msg.setSentDate(new Date());
    *               msg.setSubject(subject);*
                   MimeMultipart mp = new MimeMultipart("related");

    String subject = "\u00C 9tat de l'inscription en ligne";You need 4 hex digits after \u. You only included 3.
    mailSubject = new String(subject.getBytes(), "UTF-8");
    message.setSubject(MimeUtility.encodeText(mailSubject,"UTF-8", "B"), "UTF-8");Remove the above two lines. You're trying to make
    this much too hard. All you need is:
    message.setSubject(subject, "utf-8");
    Should I use ISO8859_1 as Charset or UTF-8 ?I think the characters you're included are
    representable in iso-8859-1 so you can use
    that.
    I am using Outlook express as my mail client. Do we have to decode it ?No.

  • [PART SOLVED] Random j, k characters appearing on lines. A vim issue?

    Hi There,
    I recently noticed that when scrolling around a file using the keys j and k in normal mode that random j and k characters appear at the end of lines. Initially I thought this was a terminal issue so I switched terminals, no luck. I removed all erroneous crap from .vim, no luck. I have googled around a bit, and it appears this is a known issue with jslint, but this is occuring with no plugins. Ctrl-l removes the random characters, and they don't appear to be getting written to the file, but it is annoying non the less.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the reply. In my case, it appears more frequent when you scroll back and forth over pages using j and k. I haven't noticed anything with the 'O' command but I will keep an I out. I haven't been able to find the root cause of this, nor have I found any 'real' fixes so I either deal with it or use emacs with VIM bindings. I'll consider this closed.

  • Series of 8 characters appearing under my mouse pointer

  • Arabic characters appear as empty squares when using certain HTML tags or font styles

    Only when HW acceleration is on. Arabic characters appear as empty squares when using "italic" or "oblique" font styles or when using &lt;i&gt; or &lt;em&gt; html tags.
    Try this code to replicate the problem
    <pre>
    &lt;p&gt;مشكلة ظهور المربعات الخالية بدل الحروف&lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;p style="font-style: italic;">Italic مشكلة ظهور المربعات الخالية بدل الحروف&lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;p style="font-style: oblique;">Oblique مشكلة ظهور المربعات الخالية بدل الحروف&lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;i&gt;i tag مشكلة ظهور المربعات الخالية بدل الحروف</i> &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;
    &lt;em&gt;em tag مشكلة ظهور المربعات الخالية بدل الحروف &lt;/em&gt;
    </pre>

    After lots of research, I found the problem. The boxes (squares) show up whenever there is a font in the webpage that does not have Arabic within its Unicode range such as Times New Roman Italic or Oblique. Normally, Firefox will pick another font to display the characters but now, a newly introduced feature is interfering.
    To fix the problem without turning off hardware acceleration.
    Go to about:config
    locate: gfx.font_rendering.directwrite.use_gdi_table_loading
    which is True by default in FF4.0 Beta 10, and change it to False.
    This is a bug that has to be fixed.

  • JSP/Servlets: Extra Characters appear randomly.

    One of the major problems that we are having with our JSPs and Servlets is these extra characters (probably in hexa format and probably equal to the content length of the output) keep appearing at random. If the output is small then you see these characters just once - at the top, but if the output is long (like the result of a query being displayed within an html table), these characters appear randomly anywhere in between the generated output and break the html.
    If the same resource is accessed via the Database listener http endpoint then this problem does not occur - i.e. when you bypass Apache.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks in advance.
    Ashish.

    one more thing...the code runs properly on localhost... i tested it on my pc n it was fine..both in firefox and IE...
    i guess there is a specific syntax i need to follow (strict syntax) but i dunno what it is...:(
