Korean Character printing

Hello,
Iam face with an issue of printing Korean characters.
It's a must that I should use the following criterion.
Host spool access method  : L print locally using LP/LPR in the output device configuration.
I searched the oss notes and found out a way to do it uisng SAPWIN(kpsapwin) Device type. It works.
let me know of any solution.
Thx

  • Strange folder appearing, named with Korean character 삔

    Quite often I have a folder turn up at the bottom of the list on my HD. It is labeled with a Korean character 삔 meaning "sprained" (as far as I can work out). There's never anything in the folder so I just trash it.
    It's no big deal but it's a curious aberration.
    Anyone have the same issue?

    I also have that folder. Every time I delete it, it appears several days later. What's going on? anyone could solve this problem?

  • Korean character set

    Hi all,
    I am having a problem like,
    My project uses the J2EE Application Model,
    The problem is , if i made a entry to the site(project) in korean character set, the characterset was broken and gets stored into the database.I am using the korean characterset in the Oracle 8i.I guess there should be no problem with the database.The problem is with the parsing of characters by java applications.
    Kindly advise me on the above....

  • Inserting Korean character

    We have an oracle 10g DB on Sun Solaris with NLS_CHARACTERSET=KO16KSCCS and NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET=AL16UTF16.
    I am connecting to this DB using SQLPLUS.
    Create table t1 (COL1 INTEGER, COL2 VARCHAR2(30));
    My questions are
    1.     How to insert values to this with KOREAN Character to COL2?
    I should see the same character when I do the select after the insert.
    2.     How do I do this from Java program?

    Hi there!
    WE8ISO8859P1 is a character set that is not Euro enabled.
    (see Appendix A of the Oracle 8i National Language Support
    Guide for Euro-enabled character sets).
    I see a couple of possible approaches to solving your
    problem:
    1.) recreate the database with a unicode characterset.
    2.) If 1 is not an option, try defining the column that
    needs the Euro symbol inserted as NCHAR or NVARCHAR2
    and define a (euro-enabled) national character set
    via an environment variable.
    For further details pleas check the "Oracle 8i National Language
    Support Guide".
    Hope that helps.

  • Chinese Character Printing in Smartform (Different Question)

    Hi all,
    Can anyone explain to me further the OSS Note 776507 that Anji Reddy Vangala recently posted?  It involves the preview and printing of different character sets.  Currently I've managed to preview my form correctly, but it still prints out #'s.  Do I need to re-assign the fonts to the printer device or something, or do I need to use a different printer?  The printer I am currently using is an HP 2100.  Please please help, anyone?
    <b>EDIT:</b> Probably a better question would be how to map the conversion font of CNSONG to something that can be read by the printer?
    A copy of the note for everyone's reference:
    OSS Note: 776507
    Symptom
    Documents printed via SAPscript or SmartForms do not print with correct special characters, e.g. ### prints instead of Japanese or Russian characters. What to do?
    Other terms
    SAPscript, SmartForms, printing, device types, OTF
    Reason and Prerequisites
    Help required to choose proper fonts in a SAPscript or SmartForm
    Solution
    When using SAPscript or SmartForms to print (or email or fax) a form from a business application, many factors influence the outcome of the actual text within the form. All these factors must be checked in order to ensure a correct printout:
    1) The language version of the form used to produce the printout.
    Example: If you want to print a French invoice, you need to have a FR version of your SAPscript or SmartForms invoice form RVINVOICE01. And the application program must specify the corresponding language key (FR) when calling the SAPscript or SmartForms API.
    2) The font selections specified in the form (possibly also in a SAPscript style or SmartStyle used in a form).
    Example: In a SAPscript form or a SmartStyle you need to specify HELVE if you want to print German text in Helvetica (or similar) font. If you want to print Japanese text, HELVE is not a valid choice but you need to specify a Japanese font like JPMINCHO in your Japanese form.
    3) The output character set of the device type
    Every printer in transaction SPAD has a "device type" assigned. Device types used by the spooler for printing support only one single specific output character set. All text from the form has to be converted (using SAP's built-in character conversion mechanism) to this output character set.
    A character set can typically support either a single language (e.g. Shift-JIS which supports only Japanese) or a set of languages (e.g. ISO 8859-1, which supports Western-European languages). It is possible that a given language (such as German) can be supported by several output character sets, e.g. you may use either ISO 8895-1 (Latin-1) or ISO 8859-2 (Latin-2) to represent German text. This is so because both character sets contain the special characters used in German.
    Example: HPLJ4000 is a HP LaserJet device type supporting the ISO 8859-1 (Latin-1) character set. ISO 8859-1 can be used to represent e.g. Dutch, English, French, German, Spanish, Swedish but NOT Russian or Japanese.
    As a consequence, it is ok to use HPLJ4000 to print English, German French etc. but not for Japanese or Russian.
    4) The set of available printer fonts for a given device type
    When formatting a document, SAPscript and SmartForms perform an automatic mapping of the font definitions in the form (e.g. "HELVE 14 point bold") and the available printer fonts of the device type. A replacement printer font is chosen, should the specified font selection not be available in the device type. Now this replacement can be problematic if a language-specific font, such as Chinese CNSONG, is specified in a form and it gets replaced by a font which does not support this language, e.g. COURIER.
    To solve this problem, font families in SE73 have language attribute assigned, e.g. some fonts are characterized as being suitable only for certain languages. And when a replacement has to be chosen because the original font from the form is not available in the device type, a replacement font is chosen which has the same language attributes.
    If no fonts for the language in question exist in the device type, the resulting font will not be able to print the special characters and you will see "wrong" output characters in the printout.
    Note on SAPscript/SmartForms Print Preview:
    The OTF Print Preview available in Windows GUI (e.g. from transaction SP01) will sometimes not show the "wrong" characters which appear on the final printout. Here is the reason: since the Print Preview runs in Windows environment, it will use Windows fonts to represent the actual printer fonts. A Windows font typically has more available characters (i.e. covers more character sets) than are actually available in a printer's resident font.
    A typical example where the Print Preview will differ from the printout is here: if you have a Chinese PCL5 printer such as CNHPLJ4 and use the Western Latin font COURIER in your document, the print preview will show you Chinese characters if you (by accident) tried to format Chinese characters in COURIER font. This is because Windows will automatically choose a font that can output Chinese characters (which is actually not Courier). But when you print the job on an actual PCL5 printer with resident Western and Chinese fonts, the Courier font will not print any Chinese characters but Western special characters instead, because the printer's resident Courier font does not include Chinese characters.
    Rule of thumb: all Asian device types (e.g. CNHPLJ4, JPHPLJ4, JPPOST, KPHPLJ4) support not only Asian fonts but also COURIER, HELVE and TIMES fonts. But these Latin fonts can only be used to print English text, not Chinese/Japanese/Korean characters.
    Which fonts are suitable for a given language?

    Verify your output by examining the OTF data
    When analysing printing problems of this type, be sure to check the OTF data which gets produced by SAPscript or SmartForms. OTF or "Output Text Format" is the intermediate page-description format generated from SAPscript or SmartForms. OTF will contain the final printer font names and character set/language identifiers which help to solve the problem. OTF will even name the form and the language of the form used to create the output.
    The easiest way to do this is to create a spool request from your application, run transaction SP01, use menu
    Goto->Display Requests->Settings
    and choose
    Display Mode: Raw
    Now display your spool request. If this is a SAPscript or SmartForms spool request, you will see OTF data. Each line represents one OTF command, every command starts with a 2-character cmd identifier and possibly some cmd parameters follow.
    Here is an excerpt from a sample OTF file where we highlight the most interesting commands:
    //XHPLJ8000 0700 00000000001
    IN04EALEXTEST_ZEBRA
    IN05%PAGE1
    OPDINA4 P 144 240 1683811906000010000100001
    IN06%WINDOW2
    MT0024401289
    CP11000000E
    FCHELVE 120 00109XSF100SF101110000067E X
    UL +0000000000000
    SW00067
    CT00000000
    ST0453037Dieses SF hat Stil ALEXTEST_ZEBRA mit
    The 1st line with the // (Control) command reveals the device type usedto print: HPLJ8000
    //XHPLJ8000 0700 00000000001
    The 2nd line (IN = Info command) shows the name and (internal 1-char)language key of the form:
    IN04EALEXTEST_ZEBRA
    In this case it is the English (E = EN) SmartForm ALEXTEST_ZEBRA
    The OP-line (OP = Open Page) gives the page format used in the form, it is DINA4 Portrait orientation:
    OPDINA4 P 144 240 1683811906000010000100001
    The CP (CodePage) cmd shows the SAP system codepage used to code the text and the active language. In our case it is codepage 1100 and language E = EN = English.
    CP11000000E
    Finally, the FC-cmd (Font Call) lists a printer font selected within SmartForms. Please note that every SmartForm has a designated default SmartStyle under "Form Attributes->Output Options". In addition, every text node can have a SmartStyle attached (which will override the definitions from the default style for the text). In our case the resulting printer font that was selected is HELVE 12.0 pt bold-off, italic-off.

    Hi,
    there a different things to know.
    I produce sapscript forms with cinese and english characters for frontend / backend and archiv printing.
    Please check:
    Editor displays ###: You have to install the chinese language in your e.g. windows-system to display them.
    Script: You have to chose the the font family "CNSONG" (customized for chinese simplified and LATIN).
    Transaction I18N: May you have to set correct subfonts for the unicode areas (Cascading fonts, Standard is Courier).
    You can print in different ways:
    For archiv/PDF: Install the unicode truetype font with chinese characters for the pdf-converter.
    For Frontend: Use the Frontendprinter SAPWIN or SAPWIN*CF (Cascading Font) to send it to the gui (note: SAPLPD does not support it, use the newer technology.....)
    Backend printing: POSTSCRIPT is not yet implemented :-((
    PLease note: What you see in spool / print preview is a simulation of the possible print, but backend print is not frontend preview!!!!

  • Korean Language Printing

    Hi SDN,
    Im trying to print few details in the Korean Language from an SAP Script. I have made the changes to the existing script and the Print Preview comes perfectly fine.
    When I take the Print Out from the Spool Request, blank boxes get printed instead of Korean Language Text. Im using the Unicode Printer
    Can anyone help me out with this.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Manu Kapur

    Hi Manu,
    You need to check whether the korean font is support by that printer & whether you have the Koren font uploaded in SAP in transaction SE73.
    Check whether the font is converted to some other font at runtime.
    Goto SP01, enter the spool no.
    Click Execute
    Click GOTO=> Display request => Settings
    Select hexadecimal format..
    Check the font.
    If its converted, then you need to upload the font in SE73
    Best regards,

  • Problem with CONVERT_OTF, special character '-' printing not properly

    Hi experts,
    when printing PO item text; in Print Preview, text displays correctly. But in program by using 'CONVERT_OTF' FM output is converting into PDF and this PDF is send it to the PO creator through mail,   In the PDF present in the mail, the special character ' - ' is not displaying properly; i.e the special character ' - ' is replaced by '  ' space. For the text we are using Text editor and Font family is 'COURIER' , device type is 'PDF'.   And also i tried with different Font fammilies, for that it beheaves differently but not displays as it is the special character ' - '.
    Thanks and regards
    Aumprakasharya T

    Hi,
    Which device type is used to create the PDF? i.e. which deivce type is used in the OTF data that is converted to PDF? If you use device type PDFUC or SWINCF, then it should work fine. (see SAP not #999712 about unicode PDF conversion)

  • SAP Korean Language  & Printing

    Hi. we are having SAP 4.7 x220 ... Non Unicode... we already installing and import Korean Languange..
    able to logn as korean..
    come to printing, it using KPSAWIN...
    looking from this notes :
    Note 54059 - Korean Installation Guide
    Note 750219 - Unicode UTF-8 printing with HP printers
    Note 724084 - SAP NetWeaver information for Asian language versions
    from that notes.. say that korean printing can be done by having korean front end.
    any body can give me any hints / clarification on it ?
    seem i cant find any information on OSS notes.

    Hi,
    Unicode would be highly recommended in your case.
    However you should be able to print Korean data when using KPSAPWIN and logon with Korean (please check e.g. SAP note 83502).

    Printer MODEL:MFP1536-DNF

    Hi,
    Most likely due to fonts. Your machine may have those fonts therefore you can see properly BUT the ePrint may not. My suggestion: change to another font and try again.

  • Turkish Character printing in PDF

    Dear ALL
    I created a SAP Scirpt for Turkey in Turkish language , i need to print some company address in turkish language.
    I created standard text for that, it was working fine in output and print preview means that all the turkish character was displaying properly but problem arrived when converted the output into PDF using standard program
    Note : In PDF output turkish character are getting overlapped with other character or displaying as #
    I also tried changing different codepage ,device type, but i was unsucccesful
    All Comments are welcomed
    with regards

    Hi Anand,
    Try this , first generate a spool request for that sap script a unique identify number generates. Goto SE38 give the program name as RSTXPDFT4 and execute it . It will ask for the spool request number  give that and execute it will convert it into PDF.
    Hope this will be helpful try once.

  • Turkish character printing

    Hello all,
    We are trying to print Turkish characters on a Lexmark printer (4227P). We have copied std device type EPECSP9 to a Z version and also copied character set 1116 to 9116. It seems to work fine when device is adjusted to EPSON emulation but printing is very slow. And when we switch to IBM emulation printing is faster but we lose Turkish characters.
    Has anyone encountered such a problem before?
    Thx in advance,

  • Printer not holding it's PCL settting "Raw character printing"

    I have some older HP printers where I can send PCL commands to the printers (font, size,orientation, etc.) using a program in Unix,. I can send multiple jobs to that printer and it holds the setting sent to the printer until I send the default PCL setting command back to the printer.
    On the newer HP printers, I send the same commands, but the printer is not holding the setting when I send the additional print jobs.  Is there some setting on the printers where I can change the printer behavior similar to the older printers?  Or, is there is a PCL command that would give me the same behavior?

    Most modern LaserJet (and clone) printers reset to user environment (power-on) defaults at the end of each 'print job'.
    ... and if a print job is not terminated with explicit PCL5 reset or Universal Exit Language reset sequences, the printer will force a reset at the end of a timeout period (usually defaulting to 300 seconds).
    So you'll probably have to concatenate your 'initialisation sequences' with each actual print job.
    [When I worked on early System 5 *n*x systems many years ago, you could set up initialisation strings within the 'lpsched' spooling system, using the IS2 variable.]
