Importing XML Variables fails if values have Japanese characters

Using Illustrator CS3 13.0.1 Spanish version
Illustrator is omitting all Japanese characters when importing a library of variables (through the Variables Palette). When defining the values, it does export them, as can be seen by opening the XML file in a text editor, but it seemingly cannot import them back.
And yes, I do have the correct Japanese fonts installed.
Did I mention it is version
b 13
Mac OS X 10.5.2

You've been helpful even though my problem isn't solved. :) I didn't know about the language options in the preferences panel. I think the problem is that when I Save off the variables, it looks like my file references the category entity (at the top of the page) whereas his content has the actual url included in the category. If I try to load his content back into my AI file, I only get the "CH:", "TA:", "KH:" and "JP:". Nothing else will show in the text box. If he tries to load my content in the Japanese version, he gets an error. Next I'm going to try manually changing the "category" content in my files and then send them thru translation. Maybe he'll be able to open them if I structure my file like his. The downside is I have to verify every language and make sure there is some transform that accounts for the differences, if any, before files can be handed off. I can't be the only one who has difficulty with this. :) My AI CS3 English Installation (Save Variable Library...) result ]<variables> <variable trait="textcontent" varName="CALLOUT1" category="&ns_flows;"></variable> <variable trait="textcontent" varName="CALLOUT2" category="&ns_flows;"></variable> <variable trait="textcontent" varName="CALLOUT3" category="&ns_flows;"></variable> <variable trait="textcontent" varName="CALLOUT4" category="&ns_flows;"></variable> </variables> His AI CS3 Japanese installation result. ]<variables> <variable trait="textcontent" varName="CALLOUT1" category="http://ns.adobe.com/Flows/1.0/"></variable> <variable trait="textcontent" varName="CALLOUT2" category="http://ns.adobe.com/Flows/1.0/"></variable> <variable trait="textcontent" varName="CALLOUT3" category="http://ns.adobe.com/Flows/1.0/"></variable> <variable trait="textcontent" varName="CALLOUT4" category="http://ns.adobe.com/Flows/1.0/"></variable> </variables>

Importing XML Text files with Indesign friendly 'Carriage Returns'

Hi,
I have a question wrt importing XML into Indesign. I have my text stored in Excel (Fig A) and intend to export as an XML file where each line will represent each page. However, my first attempt failed to treat the 'carriage returns' as I'd envisaged:
The 'carriage returns' used within an Excel cell (ALT-ENTER) are maintained when transforming to a CSV file (Fig B). However, when converting to an XML file, the conversion only takes place on a line by line basis and hence the XML file becomes incomplete (Fig C).
So, it appears I need to make sure that the CSV file contains one line per entry, while also maintaining the actual carriage returns in my source spreadsheet and for Indesign to recognise them. In order to do this, I'll need to substitute the 'carriage returns' in my excel column to be represented by a new set of characters. My question is how can I let Indesign know to recognise this set of characters to be converted to a carriage return, when importing text.
For example, if this set of characters was '%%%%%%', then my new csv file would look like Figure D and the XML would be produced correctly, like Figure E. Then importing this XML file to InDesign, the carriage returns would automatically be reinstated, hopefully.
I hope someone can help me as I am only starting out in Indesign and feel Im running before I can walk by venturing into the XML/Indesign arena too soon.
Best Regards
Luke

Hi,
Thanks for all the responses.
With regard to XML, it could well be an issue has crept in because I am using another utility to convert my csv's to xml and maybe there are better options out there. I will take a look for other utilities and try that (Its not possible from Excel easily, even though there is an option to save as an XML file).
Secondly, because the XML was readable by internet explorer, I assumed it had a satisfactory standard XML format which would be accepted by any program, including InDesign. This proved true, since the XML file i generated was actually recognised by my Indesign document and populated the tags correctly, albeit without any carriage returns.
When I save my excel sheet as a csv, it does actually hold the carriage returns causing multiple lines per entry, hence why I need to substitute the actual carriage returns in my excel sheet to a alternative character set so that the entry remains on one line.
Re: Double quotes on text fields. Im sorry, I didnt realise I had commas in my sample csv example.
I should have corrected it, but I intend on using semi-colons as my csv delimiter and don't intend on having semi-colons in my excel sheet itself, so I possibly won't need any double-quotes.
So, it looks like this is what I need to do ;
i) Add a column in Excel which substitutes all the carriage returns with a line break identifier (^n).
ii) Convert Excel file to a semi-colon csv holding this new column,
iii) Convert csv file to XML using a good CSV->XML utility,
iv) Add the respective XML tags to my INDD document,
v) Add a GREP rule which does a find/replace on all instances of ^n and replace with a line break,
vi) Import the XML file,
vii) Apply the find/replace GREP rule on the whole document. Carriage returns on my text fields should be consistent with my original excel sheet.
Thanks for all your help fellas. Will report on how I get on once Im done.
Best Regards

Write Japanese characters to CSV

In my JSP I am doing the following
<head>
 <script type="text/javascript">
 var newWindow;
 function checkForCSVExport()
 <%
 String results = (String) session.getAttribute("EXCEL_FB_DATA") ;
 String URL = (String) Form.makeUrl(request,"/custom/jsp/search/load_csv.jsp");
 if(null != results)
 out.println(
 "newWindow=window.open(\""
 + URL
 + "\", \"export\", \"toolbar=no,menubar=no,width=200,height=200,resizable=no\");");
 %>
</script>
</head>the String results contain comma seperated values with Japanese characters in them. We need to write these Japanese characters to CSV. For this we have a JSP page called load_csv.jsp. Here are its contents
<%@ page contentType="application/csv; charset=UTF-8" %>
<%@ page import="com.components.search.SearchResultsFeedback"%>
<%
 String strFBResults = (String)session.getAttribute("EXCEL_FB_DATA");
 String strFBHdr = (String)session.getAttribute("EXCEL_FB_HEADER");
 response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=searchresult.csv");
%>
<%=strFBHdr%>
<%=strFBResults%>this works fine for English characters but Japanese characters are displayed as junk characters in CSV. Please help.

Thanks for replying. I am using UTF-8 throughout.
Also, there is an interesting thing that I observed. If I right click on the CSV file and select "Open with --> Word" then the word application asks me
"Select the encoding that makes your document readable". If I select "Unicode (UTF-8)", Japanese characters appear perfectly fine. But why doesn't this happen in excel as that is also UTF-8 compliant since I can type japanese characters into the same excel file.

Japanese characters, outputstreamwriter, unicode to utf-8

Hello,
I have a problem with OutputStreamWriter's encoding of japanese characters into utf-8...if you have any ideas please let me know! This is what is going on:
static public String convert2UTF8(String iso2022Str) {
   String utf8Str = "";
   try {
      //convert string to byte array stream
      ByteArrayInputStream is = new     ByteArrayInputStream(iso2022Str.getBytes());
      ByteArrayOutputStream os = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
      //decode iso2022Str byte stream with iso-2022-jp
      InputStreamReader in = new InputStreamReader(is, "ISO2022JP");
      //reencode to utf-8
      OutputStreamWriter out = new OutputStreamWriter(os, "UTF-8");
      //get each character c from the input stream (will be in unicode) and write to output stream
      int c;
      while((c=in.read())!=-1) out.write(c);
      out.flush();
     //get the utf-8 encoded output byte stream as string
     utf8Str = os.toString();
      is.close();
      os.close();
      in.close();
      out.close();
   } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e1) {
      return    e1.toString();
   } catch (IOException e2) {
      return e2.toString();
   return utf8Str;
}I am passing a string received from a database query to this function and the string it returns is saved in an xml file. Opening the xml file in my browser, some Japanese characters are converted but some, particularly hiragana characters come up as ???. For example:
屋台骨田家は時間目離れ拠り所那覇市矢田亜希子ナタハアサカラマ楢葉さマヤア
shows up as this:
屋�?�骨田家�?�時間目離れ拠り所那覇市矢田亜希�?ナタ�?アサカラマ楢葉�?�マヤア
(sorry that's absolute nonsense in Japanese but it was just an example)
To note:
- i am specifying the utf-8 encoding in my xml header
- my OS, browser, etc... everything is set to support japanese characters (to the best of my knowledge)
Also, I ran a test with a string, looking at its characters' hex values at several points and comparing them with iso-2022-jp, unicode, and utf-8 mapping tables. Basically:
- if I don't use this function at all...write the original iso-2022-jp string to an xml file...it IS iso-2022-jp
- I also looked at the hex values of "c" being read from the InputStreamReader here:
while((c=in.read())!=-1) out.write(c);and have verified (using character value mapping table) that in a problem string, all characters are still being properly converted from iso-2022-jp to unicode
- I checked another table (http://www.utf8-chartable.de/) for the unicode values received and all of them have valid mappings to a utf-8 value
So it appears that when characters are written to the OutputStreamWriter, not all characters can be mapped from Unicode to utf-8 even though their Unicode values are correct and there should be utf-8 equivalents. Instead they are converted to (hex value) EF BF BD 3F EF BF BD which from my understanding is utf-8 for "I don't know what to do with this one".
The characters that are not working - most hiragana (thought not all) and a few kanji characters. I have yet to find a pattern/relationship between the characters that cannot be converted.
If I am missing some....or someone has a clue....oh...and I am developing in Eclipse but really don't have a clue about it beyond setting up a project, editing it and hitting build/run. It is possible that I may have missed some needed configuration??
Thank you!!

It's worse than that, Rene; the OP is trying to create a UTF-8 encoded string from a (supposedly) iso-2022 encoded string. The whole method would be just an expensive no-op if it weren't for this line: utf8Str = os.toString(); That converts the (apparently valid) UTF-8 encoded byte array to a string, using the system default encoding (which seems to be iso-2022-jp, BTW). Result: garbage.
@meggomyeggo, many people make this kind of mistake when they first start dealing with encodings and charset conversions. Until you gain a good understanding of these matters, a few rules of thumb will help steer you away from frustrating dead ends.
* Never do charset conversions within your application. Only do them when you're communicating with an external entity like a filesystem, a socket, etc. (i.e., when you create your InputStreamReaders and OutputStreamWriters).
* Forget that the String/byte[] conversion methods (new String(byte[]), getBytes(), etc.) exist. The same advice applies to the ByteArray[Input/Output]Stream classes.
* You don't need to know how Java strings are encoded. All you need to know is that they always use the same encoding, so phrases like "iso-2022-jp string" or "UTF-8 string" (or even "UTF-16 string") are meaningless and misleading. Streams and byte arrays have encodings, strings do not.
You will of course run into situations where one or more of these rules don't apply. Hopefully, by then you'll understand why they don't apply.

Issue with Japanese characters in files/filenames in terminal.

I recently downloaded a zip file with Japanese characters in the archive and in the files within the archive. The name of the archive is "【批量下载】パノプティコン労働歌第一等.zip"
The characters are properly displayed in firefox, chrome, and other applications, but in my terminal some of the characters appear corrupted. Screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/4R22m0D.png
Additionally, this leads to corruption of the files in the archive. When I try to extract the files, this is what happens:
% unzip 【批量下载】パノプティコン労働歌第一等.zip
Archive: 【批量下载】パノプティコン労働歌第一等.zip

extracting: +ii/flac/---- -instrumental-.flac bad CRC 569b6194 (should be adb5d5fe)
I'm not sure what could be the cause of this. I'm using uxterm with terminus as my main font and IPA gothic (a Japanese font) as my secondary font. I have a Japanese locale set up and have tried setting LANG=ja_JP.utf8 before, but the results never change.
Also, this issue isn't just with this file. This happens with nearly all archives that have Japanese characters associated with it.
Has anyone encountered this issue before or knows what might be wrong?

Maybe 7zip or another tool has workarounds for broken file names, you could try that.
Or you could try to go over the files in the zip archive one-by-one and write it to files out-1, out-2, ..., out-$n without concerning yourself with the file names. You could get file endings back via the mimetype.
This script might work:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <zip.h>
static const char *template = "./out-%04d.bin";
int main(int argc, char**argv)
int err = 0;
zip_t *arc = zip_open((const char*)argv[1], ZIP_RDONLY, &err);
if(arc == NULL)
printf("Failed to open ZIP, error %d\n", err);
return -1;
zip_int64_t n = zip_get_num_entries(arc, 0);
printf("%s: # of packed files: %d\n", argv[1], n);
for(int i = 0; i < n; i++)
zip_stat_t stat;
zip_stat_index(arc, i, ZIP_FL_UNCHANGED, &stat);
char buf[stat.size];
char oname[sizeof(template)];
zip_file_t *f = zip_fopen_index(arc, (zip_int64_t)i, ZIP_FL_UNCHANGED);
zip_fread(f, (void*)&buf[0], stat.size);
snprintf(&oname[0], sizeof(template), template, i);
FILE *of = fopen(oname, "wb");
fwrite(&buf[0], stat.size, 1, of);
printf("%s: %s => %lu bytes\n", argv[1], oname, stat.size);
zip_fclose(f);
fclose(of);
zip_close(arc);
return 0;
Compile with
gcc -std=gnu99 -O3 -o unzip unzip.c -lzip
and run as
./unzip $funnyzipfile
You should get template-named, numbered output files in the current directory.

When I am creating reports using the table where I have Japanese characters stored in NVARCHAR2 column, the value is not displaying correctly in Report Regardless of Reports support for nchar columns, 6i is very very old and based on equally ancient database client libraries (8.0.x if memory serves me). Earliest version of Oracle database software that support the N literal replacement feature is 10.2. So, obviously not available for Reports 6i.
I'm guessing only way to fully support Japanese language symbols is to move to a UTF8 database (if not migrating to a current version of Report Services).
Please help to provide a workaround for this. Or do I need to post this question in any other forums?There is a Reports forum around here somewhere. Look in the dev tools section or maybe Middleware categories.

Display Japanese characters on Applet

Hi All,
I am able to display Japanese Characters on my Applet locally(Windows 2000 - US) by overwriting the font.properties content with the one in font.properties.ja found in JRE/LIB directory of my Jdeveloper JDK. When I deploy the applet on 9ias server which is configured for UTF8 charset I get squares wherever I have Japanese characters.
Appreciate if someone could tell the procedures to make the applet to recognize the Japanese/UTF8 characters and display accordingly.

I have read some documentation on JDBC thin drivers and they have mentioned that whenever JDBC retreives data from a database it converts it to Unicode 1.2 and I am already retreiving data from a UTF 8 database. The reason I think this is true is because I can display japanese characters locally on my windows machine by overwriting the font.properties in the JDevelopers- JDK- JRE - LIB folder by font.properties.ja
There must be some way to test why it is showing squares for japanese characters when I deploy it on the server. May be not getting the MS Gothic font used to display Japanese?
Looks like updating all the code is not feasible at this point as the code currently stores the data in Vectors and we can't perform a vector.getBytes(). Any help will be really appreciated.

Japanese characters in display dialog buttons

I would like to have Japanese characters on the face of display dialog buttons. Is this possible, and if so would someone suggest a method for doing so. Thanks in advance.

Simple really, let say you like to have two buttons あい and いあ .
You need to make two text files, one for each button with the above content (they need to be Unicode text file).
Call them test1.txt and test2.txt, put them on your desktop.
then try this:
-- begin
tell application "Finder" to set home_desktop to desktop as string
set _test1 to read file (home_desktop & "test1.txt") as Unicode text
set _test2 to read file (home_desktop & "test2.txt") as Unicode text
display dialog "test" buttons {_test1, _test2}
-- end
To have everything in self-contain script, you have to save the script as application bundle, add the text files to the bundle and refer to their correct path within the bundle.

Import of variables from XML fails, diff shows no difference from Illustrator export

Hi, all,
I've got an AppleScript that I wrote to massage CSV output from Excel into a variable library that I can import into Illustrator. Because I have to maintain black and white and left and right specific image files and output files, I've tried every other solution, and this is the best I've been able to come up with.
diff reports that comparing the output to output of the identical data set exported from Illustrator is a 1-1 match. (I previously identified a place where there was an extra space.)
Illustrator rejects the file with the "The incoming variable library is invalid." error message.
If I copy and paste the contents of the output of my script into the file Illustrator exported, Illustrator reads it back, so my XML is correct.
I'm using Illustrator CS2 and 10.4.11. Does Illustrator set some kind of creator code on the file? Is there something else that could be at work?

hi, i am still having lo luck with reading the xml data back into memory, as i have said before, the netbeans profiler is telling me it is a char[] that is using 50% of the memory but i cannot see how a char[] is created, my code doesn't so it must be the xml code...plz help

P. S.
(1) I mimicked the xml file and SQL Qeury code of Import XML File to SQL Table in
http://pratchev.blogspot.com/2008/11/import-xml-file-to-sql-table.html. The xml file and the code of this sample worked in my SSMS 2012 program.
(2) I am learning the "CAST" and "CROSS APPLY" in the Create Instances of XML Data of Microsoft MSDN - it is very abstract to me.

Hi Stan210, Thanks for your nice response.
I corrected my xml file as you pointed out.
I made some changes in some code statements of my SQLQueryW3BookTitle.sql as you instructed:

Import of XML file failed in portal using XML Content and Action

SSIS Import XML task running in SQL Server Agent fails

I have created an SSIS package to import some XML files into my SQL2014 datawarehouse. If I run this package through the visual studio designer it works fine. The XML files are stored on a remote share accessed via UNC path. When I schedule the package to
run using SQL server agent it fails with the following errors :-
Executed as user: SPRINGFIELD\MSSQL. Microsoft (R) SQL Server Execute Package Utility Version 12.0.2000.8 for 64-bit Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.    Started: 12:01:53 Error: 2014-11-18 12:01:59.78

(1). Started: 12:01:53 Finished: 12:03:32 Elapsed: 98.859 seconds. The package execution failed. The step failed.
The user MSSQL has been granted full permissions to the remote share. If I remove these permissions then I don't get an error - but I also don't get any data imported. I have granted the MSSQL user xp_cmdexec permission. Both my SQL server database engine
and agent are running as the MSSQL user.
There must be some permission step I am missing - can anyone tell me what it may be ?

FYI: The XSD path is hardcode... if you want it to be more flexible you can add an expression on that property:

Inconsistent behaviour (I think) with escaping of invalid characters. Select in MSSQLMS escapes fine but assigning to an xml typed variable fails.

-- How can I assign an xml typed variable and take advantage of the automatic escaping of invalid characters?
-- This query escapes the character fine in MSSQLMS
SELECT * FROM (SELECT CAST(0x1B00 AS NVARCHAR(128)) AS TestCharacter) MyTable FOR XML auto
<MyTable TestCharacter="" />
-- This fails in MSSQLMS and in a similar production procedure.
DECLARE @MyXml XML
SET @MyXML = (SELECT * FROM (SELECT CAST(0x1B00 AS NVARCHAR(128)) AS TestCharacter) MyTable FOR XML auto)
Msg 9420, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
XML parsing: line 1, character 30, illegal xml character

Thanks for the reply. I looked at casting to varbinary but didn't want to cast the large strings that have these characters in them. Sorry for not mentioning that. My example above is simplified. The text isn't only in an attribute and can be quite large.
I want to be able to read the text by just looking at the xml.
I really would like the escaped form:
 for all the invalid characters.

Assigning a node value from an XML variable to a String type in Weblogic Process Integrator

Hi,
Is there any way to assign a node value from an XML variable to a String variable
in Weblogic Process Integrator...
Thanx.

Nerendra
Are you talking about using Xpath on the XML document and assigning to a
variable, it is unclear what you are asking

Japanese characters alone are not passing correctly (passing like ??? or some unreadable characters) to Adobe application when we create input variable as XML data type. The same solution works fine if we change input variable data type to document type a

Dear Team,
Japanese characters alone are not passing correctly (passing like ??? or some unreadable characters) to Adobe application when we create input variable as XML data type. The same solution works fine if we change input variable data type to document type. Could you please do needful. Thank you

Hello,
most recent patches for IGS and kernel installed. Now it works.
