Generated pdf file from oracle reports show bad characters

Hello all,
Iam fighting with a problem with generated pdf file from oracle reports which show some bad characters. I was searching for some information but it didnt help...
I have Oracle Database 11g R2 (or 10g R2) on Oracle Linux or Windows, Oracle forms and reports 6i (i know that is very old and not supported with 11gr2 but we are in this scenario).
NLS parameters are set like this
server:
NLS_CHARACTERSET EE8MSWIN1250
NLS_TERRITORY AMERICA
NLS_LANGUAGE AMERICAN
client:
NLS_CHARACTERSET EE8MSWIN1250
NLS_TERRITORY SLOVAK
NLS_LANGUAGE SLOVAKIA
When I run Oracle Reports it show perfect in display and when I try to print them, they are all good with good characters, but when I try to generate pdf file, some characters like č,š,ľ are not displaying corectly... This happen only when try to generate to pdf...
I try to work with uifont.ali on client side but without any result. Fonts for reports were installed on client and server side... Can someone help me with this problem? Thank you very much for every advice.
Martin

Hi Sergiusz,
Thank you for your reply. I look at what you wrote and try to make some test...
1) For first I download FontForge, which can generate type1 font from true type. So I open FontForge and open my Arial.ttf font and use "Generate Fonts" to save my Arial.ttf font to pfb and pfm (whoch are need to set in uifont.ali). I have to change encoding, because my font has 2byte encoding so I reecondode the font from ISO10646-1 to ISO8859-2 and generate to pfb.
2) Then I navigate REPORTS_PATH from regedit to my *.pfm and *.pfb files.
3) I add these lines to end of my uifont.ali
[ PDF:Embed ]
Arial = "Arial.pfm Arial.pfb"
ArialNarrow = "ArialNarrow.pfm ArialNarrow.pfb"
4) Then I generate my report but nothing change... I check "Font used" in my pdf file, but there were not my fonts embedded I guess..
I also try PDF:Subset, but it doesnt change anything... I try PDF aliasing to see if my uifont is working - this work very well, but I dont need to change font...
Any other advice? Thank you so much to everyone!

How to display Pdf file in iPad site

Hi
How to display Pdf file in web page which can able to view in iPad safari?
Thanks,
Arun

You can't really.
You need to use DHTML in the swf-wrapper HTML file, usually a
division wrapped iFrame, and load the PDF into the iFrame as an
overlay to the Flash.

How to display pdf file with java code?

Hi All,
i have a jsp pagein that page if i click one icon then my backing bean method will call and that method will create pdf document and write some the content in that file and now i want to display that generated pdf document.
it should look like you have pressed one icon and it displayed pdf file to you to view.
java code below:
FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ExternalContext ec = fc.getExternalContext();
HttpServletResponse resp = (HttpServletResponse) ec.getResponse();
resp.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "filename=\"" + temppdfFile);
resp.encodeRedirectURL(temppdfFile.getAbsolutePath());
resp.setContentType("application/pdf");
ServletOutputStream out = resp.getOutputStream();
ServletUtils.returnFile(temppdfFile, out);
out.flush();
and above temppdfFile is my generated pdf file.
when i am executing this code, it was opening dialog box for save and cancel for the file, but the name of the file it was showing me the "jsp file name" with no file extention (in wich jsp file i am calling my backing bean method) and type is "Unknown File type" and from is "local host"
it was not showing me open option so i am saving that file then that file saved as a pdffile with tha name of my jsp file and there is nothing in that file(i.e. empty file).
what is the solution for this. there is any wrong in my code.
Please suggest me.
Thanks in advance

public Object buildBarCodes() throws Exception
File bulkBarcodes = null;
String tempPDFFile = this.makeTempDir();
File tempDir = new File("BulkPDF_Files_Print");
if(!tempDir.exists())
tempDir.mkdir();
bulkBarcodes = File.createTempFile
(tempPDFFile, ".pdf", tempDir);
//bulkBarcodes = new File(tempDir, tempPDFFile+"BulkBarcode"+"."+"pdf");
if(!bulkBarcodes.exists())
bulkBarcodes.createNewFile();
Document document = new Document();
FileOutputStream combinedOutput = new FileOutputStream(bulkBarcodes);
PdfWriter.getInstance(document, combinedOutput);
document.open();
document.add(new Paragraph("\n"));
document.add(new Paragraph("\n"));
Image image = Image.getInstance(bc.generateBarcodeBytes(bc.getBarcode()));
document.add(image);
combinedOutput.flush();
document.close();
combinedOutput.close();
FacesContext facesc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ExternalContext ec = facesc.getExternalContext();
HttpServletResponse resp = (HttpServletResponse) ec.getResponse();
resp.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "inline: BulkBarcodes.pdf");
resp.encodeRedirectURL(bulkBarcodes.getAbsolutePath());
resp.setContentType("application/pdf");
resp.setBufferSize(10000000);
ServletOutputStream out = resp.getOutputStream();
ServletUtils.returnFile(bulkBarcodes, out);
out.flush();
return "success";
This is my action method which will call when ever i press a button in my jsp page.
This method will create the barcode for the given barcode number and write that barcode image in pdf file
(i saw that pdf file which i have created through my above method, This PDF file opening when i was opening manually and the data init that is also correct means successfully it writes the mage of that barcode)
This method taking the jsp file to open because as earlier i said it was trying to open unknown file type document and i saved that file and opended with editplus and that was the jsp file in which file i am calling my action method I mean to say it was not taking the pdf file which i have created above it was taking the jsp file

How to open .cmdrw file from Oracle Forms 10g

Hi,
We need to call *.cmdrw* file from Oracle forms 10g. Is there any way to call *.cmdrw* file from Oracle forms 10g?
Thanks for the help.
Viishnu Nekkanti

In case you want to open a .cmdrw with its associated application you can use the following procedure:
webutil_host.NonBlocking( 'rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler ' || client_filename );This works for every file where a program has been associated to its file extension. (Adobe Reader for *.pdf, Microsoft Word for *.doc, Microsoft Excel for *.xls and so on)

How to load PDF files into oracle database and display them in APEX

Hi All,
We have a requirement for loading the Loading PDF files (lots of PDf files) to the oracle database and then display the PDF files in the Oracel APEX report.
So that User can view the PDF files. Our current APEX verison is 3.2..
Please let me know how to implement it and where to find the sample application!
Thanks in advanced!
Jane

Thanks Tony for your quick response!
We need to load a lot of PDfs (history + current).
I have a questions about the SQL loader. I am trying to insert a pdf file into a table by following the oracle loading sample:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/text.920/a96518/aload.htm
Example Data File: loader2.dat
This file contains the data to be loaded into each row of the table, articles_formatted.
Each line contains a comma separated list of the fields to be loaded in articles_formatted. The last field of every line names the file to be loaded in to the text column:
Ben Kanobi, plaintext,Kawasaki news article,../sample_docs/kawasaki.txt,
But i don't know to where should I put my pdf file on the server.
for example:
,../sample_docs/kawasaki.txt,
Where is the file 'kawasaki.txt'??
I try my local path, it didn't work. like c:\temp.
then I loaded teh PDf file into our server(/findev20/olmtest/orafin/11.5.7/olmtestcomn/temp) , and In my data file. I put the path
1, pdf_emp1,../findev20/olmtest/orafin/11.5.7/olmtestcomn/temp
but I got the error: the system can not find the file specified.
Where should I put the PDf files on the server and how to specify the path in the data file?
Thanks!

How to display pdf file in flex application

hi,
I am Ibran, I am using Flex4.5, in that i want to display a pdf file like images.
How can i do it please anyone tell me.
I have used navigateToURL(url),but this was going into navigation and i can't see my textfield and buttons.
So without this navigateToURL(url) how can i display a pdf file in flex without navigation so that i can see my textInputs and buttons.

Flash does not have the ability to load/display/manipulate PDF files, so you can't open it directly in the flex application. With clever HTML and javascript, you can make it appear that it is in the same window, but it will actually be in a separate window/div in the browser. And yes, this has always seemed absurd to me that Adobe doesn't support PDF's......

How to display pdf-files out of a blob

Hello,
we want to use pdf to publish our enterprise-informations (jobs, press release...) in the intranet.
How can a display a pdf-file with Portal that was saved in blob?
regards
Ralf Schmitt

Not entirely. At least we came to the conclusion it doesn't make (much) sense to block the save option of PDFs if you want to allow printing them
Anyway; there is of course another possibilty: you could always write your own java bean PDF reader; there are plenty of java PDF libraries available:
Open Source PDF Libraries in Java
The easiest way would be to choose one which can open a PDF from a URL and render it; I would retrieve the image via mod_plsql using WPG_DOCLOAD and simply use the PDF library to render the PDF. No tempfiles anyway, and if you don't implement it there is also no save button.
cheers

How to generate Excel files in Oracle Reports

Hi,
I've already built a JSP using oracle reports and Deploy on the report service. I also add a button to the left of the JSP.The next thing I want to do is:when user click on the button, the system will prompt a excel file contains the same content as the JSP file.
Can anybody teach me how to do? Thanks very much

Hi Ni,
It may not be possible to see the output of the SAME report in Excel as well. You will have to design another report which can open in Excel. You can follow this demo:
http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/demonstrations/excel/index.html
Then you can add an action to your button so that it opens the new report in a new browser window. This new browser window will open MS Excel and show the report inside Excel.
The reason that you can't output the SAME report in HTML as well as MS Excel is because we use page contentType to specify the application that the browser should open the document in (the application can be MS Word, MS Excel, etc). For example,
<%@ page contentType="application/vnd.ms-excel" %>
But we can only specify one contentType for a JSP, so the report can either be viewed as HTML or inside MS Excel.

How to display pdf file on curve 8520..

y is pdf file not displayed on curve 8520.. how to make it happen

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
For the time that a PDF remains an email attachment, you can render it on the BB. Once detached or otherwise not an email attachment, the attachment service no comes into play...and you require a 3rd party app to render it. There are several. I suggest you search AppWorld and other search sources, compare the various alternatives, and select the one that best meets your needs. You will likely find the DataViz apps as well as BeamReader and perhaps others.
Good luck!
