Thanks Viravan,
But, I have added this line in my jsp before html tag.
<%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" pageEncoding="UTF-8" %>
After html tag,i added this meta tag.
<META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8">
So, the UTF-8 encoding is capable to show different language characters in firebox browser.
But In Internet Explorer 6 other language characters not displaying..
> jsp sends out the UTF-8 BOM (hex: EF BB BF) before
the HTML tag.I cant understand this line.I m new one to java.
So ,please help me out.

Chinese and Korean characters not displaying in navigation pane

I have an issue with Chinese and Korean characters not displaying on the tabs in the navigation pane:
I have 2 RoboHelp projects (using RoboHelp 8 with the updates installed) to generate WebHelp, one in Simplified Chinese, the other Korean. The HTML files, .HHC and .HHK were sent out for translations. I have set the appropriate language in the project settings, everything almost works, except for the text on the Contents, Index, and Search tabs. (I'm not using a skin.) I have read in various threads that the lng file should be edited using the RoboHelp interface, and this seems to be the crux of the problem. The characters do not display correctly through the RoboHelp UI.
The computer on which I generate the WebHelp is Windows Server 2003, and I do not have the language packs installed. (And am having problems getting hold of the language packs to install to see if this fixes the problem.)
Aside from installing the language packs, is there anything else I can try to help resolve the problem? (The characters in the content are displaying as expected.)
Any assistance is greatly appreciated

Perhaps something in the Translation Info section of this page might help? (The specifics are for Japanese, but I believe the issue would apply to all double-byte languages).

Problems with Turkish characters not displaying correctly

A user is having problems with certain Turkish characters in particular fonts not displaying correctly (as shown below).
The two fonts (Gill Sans and Helvetica LT CondensedLight) are used for English language marketing material. Ideally, for continuity, the same font would be preferred for our Turkish language marketing material rather than changing it to a similar font.
Helvetica LT CondensedLight
Turkish character “ İ ” does not display correctly in either Word or InDesign.
Gill Sans
Turkish characters “ ş ” and “ ğ ” display correctly in Word but not InDesign.
My questions are:
1. For Gill Sans, why are the characters not displaying in InDesign but are in Word?
2. I've noticed here: http://www.webtype.com/font/gill-sans-family/#glyphs-tab that the required characters are available within the Gill Sans font. Is this because the font is newer and includes the additional characters? Would this work in InDesign?

One of the big differences between InDesign and Word is that Word will happily substitute glyphs without telling you. So, unless your installs of Word and of InDesign are using different versions of Gill Sans (which is possible, BTW) then your s-with-cedilla and your g-with-macron are actually not in Gill Sans but in some other font. I'm guessing Arial.
It's possible that you have more than one Gill Sans installed (e.g. one in your Document Fonts folder and another in your system fonts folder) that have different glyph complements. Gill Sans has been around a long time, and the version I have from the 90s has no Turkish support whatsoever.
As far as the capital-I-with-dot, you can check your glyph coverage in a variety of ways. In both InDesign and Word, you can open up a window that shows you all of the glyphs in a font. In InDesign, find it in Type -> Glyphs. In Word, it's called "Insert Symbol" and you can find it in Word 2010 by going to Insert -> Symbol -> More Symbols. I am guessing that the answer to this question is simply that your cut of Helvetica LT has no cap-I-with-dot. You'd need to pick a font that actually has support for Turkish. On WIndows, I use a very full-featured freebie called BabelMap to check font coverage. They have a Web version here:
http://www.babelstone.co.uk/Unicode/babelmap.html
but I personally prefer the downloadable .exe file.

kindly, make sure that you add the font path into your FORMS_PATH in regestery (if you are using windows) also put your font mapping ubder [ PDF:Subset ]
for example:

Arial..italic.Bold.. = "arialbi.ttf"
Arial..italic... = "ariali.ttf"
Arial...Bold.. = "arialbd.ttf"
Arial = "arial.ttf"

Foreign characters not displaying

Hi... I am developing a web app that includes a database of world cities, many of which have foreign characters in their names. The MySQL database is displaying the characters correctly, but when it comes to displaying them in drop down menus, the foreign characters are displayed as blank boxes.
The application is a J2EE Java app.
In the index.jsp file, in the html section, I have specified various types of character sets, including the standard iso-8859-1 and utf-8, but none make a difference.
The home page with the drop-down menus is at www.your-astrology-report.com/index.jsp. From the pull-down menus, select "International", then "Greece", then "NON-ENGLISH FIRST LETTERS" and you'll see what I mean.
The database code that puts the city names into the drop down menu is as follows, although as a fragment, it's incomplete.
try{
     out.print("<select name='city'>");
     out.println("<option value='0'>Select Birth Town - Check Region!</option>");
     if(letter.equals("?")){
          q="select * from "+regid+" where country='"+country+"' AND city NOT RLIKE '^[A-Z]' order by city";
     } else {
          q="select * from "+regid+" where country='"+country+"' AND city LIKE '"+letter+"%' order by city";//city begins with letter
     ResultSet rst=execute_sql_query(q);
     int count=0;
     while(rst.next()){
          out.println("<option value='"+count+"'>"+rst.getString("city")+" - "+rst.getString("subdiv")+" "+SubDiv+"</option>");
          count++;
     out.println("</select>");
I am very new to Java.
Is there some basic way of telling either the query and/or the out.print statement to get, preserve, and display these foreign characters correctly?
Please keep it simple! Like I said, I'm new to all this, and most of the Google queries I've made to try to figure this out have been gobble-de-gook to me! LOL!
Thanks,
Fartian

Thanks everybody for your suggestions. So far, I'm sorry to say, none of your suggestions have helped, though.
I suspect, though, that the reply concerning character streams (PaulClapham) holds the answer. I just don't know how to implement this in my case, i.e. how to apply this to the out.println statements in the previously given code block. My experience with Java is limited. Any ideas?
I should probably tell you how all this is structured in terms of one file calling another:
First we have the index.jsp (www.your-astrology-report.com/index.htm), which has dynamic input fields, the one in question being this:
<td colspan="2"><div id="cities"><select name="city"><option value="">Select City</option></select></div></td>
      <td colspan="2">Select First Letter of City First!</td>div id="cities" refers to a function in a second file, xmlhttp.jsp, which is called by the dynamic input field located just above the "cities" field.
Here is the function:
function handleCityU(regid_letter_country){
     document.getElementById("cities").innerHTML="Loading cities...";
     url="internal_requestU2.jsp?regid_letter_country="+regid_letter_country.value;
     var xmlhttp=myXMLHttpRequest();
     xmlhttp.open("GET",url,true);
     xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function() {
          if(xmlhttp.readyState!=4)return;
          document.getElementById("cities").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText;
     xmlhttp.send(null);
}This function passes the variable "regid_letter_country.value" to yet another file that then parses the variable, requests the required database data, and creates the out.println statements that then populate the dynamic pull-down menu that displays the cities in the original index.jsp file.
THIS IS WHERE I NEED IT TO BE DISPLAYING INTERNATIONAL CHARACTERS. The code for this part is what I originally posted.
Help!
Many thanks...

Hungarian characters not displaying properly

Utf8 characters not displayed correctly

I have a database created with collation of latin1_swedish_ci
which contains big5. I realise that I have to create the db using
utf8 in order to display correctly. However, due to the db was
created long ago, I could not change it. Is it possible to do a
conversion before the characters are displayed?
default charset of apache is utf-8
connection string is added
"useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8"

if the columns holding your text datatypes aren't unicode
capable, then you'll
never get the data out except the same way it went in.
depending on the db, datatypes, app server, it's a good bet
that the data's not
big5 but some corruption of it.

Characters not displayed correctly

Hi,
After support package installation, chararcters are not displayed correctly when i use application server,
for example when i write internal table into a file in text mode and read it after into attachment in binary mode
but characters are not correct. And after mail sent, the half or file is sent, not all data available.
What could be the reason?
Char exp in debug of attachment: ㅔ䠰㘹㌲〰㤰㘰㌍ਲ䙈〶㤳㈰〹
I get above char after i read the file, code like following:
do.
clear attch.
read dataset filename into attch.
if sy-subrc <> 0.
append attch.
exit.
endif.
append attch.
enddo.
Thanks.

I think this problem is some what related to Unicode and you should use Encoding statements whith ur open dataset stetement as follows.
open dataset ....................Encoding UTF-8.
Encoding UTF-8 is for unicode environment.
Hope this will help u.

Thai characters not displaying correctly within App

Hi everyone,
I have a Adobe Flex Mobile app displays Thai text, however this is not displaying correctly. While developing the App on my Windows machine and testing using the Adobe Flash Builder mobile emulator, the font/characters look correct.
However when running the app on either the MAC Adobe Flash Builder emulator, the iPhone simulator or on an actual iPhone, the font/characters are incorrect.
First I thought that it was maybe an encoding issue (I am using locale properties files to replace text), so followed instructions at this website Flash Builder, Flex language bundles showing strange symbols. Not utf8 encoded.Sefol however this did not solve the issue.
Looking more closely at the text rendered, it looks as though all of the characters for each word are actually being rendered, but they are just being rendered in correctly. Where as if it was a encoding issue then it would be missing characters completely.
So if you look at the first character, in the correct version it is built up of 3 components. If you look at the second image, you can see that these three components are present but just not all appearing within one character.
Is this a font issue? or is it actually an encoding/rendering issue?
My code for testing this is just a simple label tag
<s:Label text="ชื่อผู้ใช้" fontFamily="Arial" fontSize="12" />
Many thanks.

Ok so after doing a bit more of an investigation into the Font being the issue and not the encoding type, it seems as though if I use a specific font which I know has the Thai characters, then they are displayed correctly.
I have embedded the font into the App using the code:
[Embed(source="../assets/Kinnari.ttf", mimeType="application/x-font", embedAsCFF="true", fontFamily="ThaiFont")]
private var ThaiFont:Class;
Then on my UI I have added the font:
<s:Label text="ชื่อผู้ใช้" fontFamily="Arial" fontSize="12" fontFamily="ThaiFont" />
I was able to find this font at a Hawaiian Educational website! Thai fonts :: Thai Language Program, University of Hawai'i, Manoa
Thanks @tooMuchTrouble for your help.

German Special Characters not displayed correctly in RTF using code

Hi ,
In my code we are using webdynpro method
WDResourceFactory.createResource(
byte[] data, String resourceName,WDWebResourceType
Type)
Here in our code we are implementing this as
ITemplateElement templateEl = wdContext.currentTemplateElement();
WDResourceFactory.createResource(
templateEl.getReportData(),
reportName.substring(0, reportName.lastIndexOf('.')),
WDWebResourceType.RTF); reportName.lastIndexOf('.')),
Here templateEl.getReportData() returns a set of bytes which has some
german special characters.
We are generating the Bytes using String.getByes(),Just before
String text = new String(in);
collector.putBusinessObject(boName, bo);
reportDocTemplateParser(collector, text);
collector.removeBusinessObject(boName);
String generatedText = collector.generateRTF();
out = (null != generatedText) ? generatedText.getBytes() : null;
The out put is the if i am giving a word with german special characters for eg:
Betriebsübersichten it first gets converted to bytes and then passes through method WDResouseFactory.createResourse(.....) which creates an RTF file and finally in the RTF file it appears as Betriebsbbersichten the special character is not displayed correctly.
i came to knw that while converting into bytes we have to make it RTF supported encoding.ie for eg generatedText.getBytes('cp1252').i even tried with other charactersets like ISO-8859,cp1253 and so on but none of them worked.
It would be really great if you could suggest the needful.
Thanks and Regards

I soved this by using get_data function of response object. Then converting this into ISO-8859-1 charset.
See code below.
DATA : lv_encoding   TYPE abap_encoding,
          lv_conv       TYPE REF TO cl_abap_conv_in_ce,
          lv_x_string   type xstring.
lv_x_string = pv_http_client->response->get_data( ).
    lv_encoding = '1100'.
    lv_conv = cl_abap_conv_in_ce=>create(
                          encoding = lv_encoding
                             input = lv_x_string ).
    lv_conv->read( IMPORTING data = pv_result ).

Unicode Characters not displaying properly after updating to 13.0.1+

Previously, I had installed the Symbola font because certain symbols were not displaying properly in Firefox (notably on Twitter). Installing the font solved the problem for the most part (the four bit hex characters still didn't show up, but the six bit ones did).
After updating to 13.0.1 the other day, the six bit hex codes do not show the correct symbol anymore with Symbola still installed. I even deleted Symbola from my fonts, redownloaded it (a newer version, no less), installed it, and opened Firefox, and it did not solve the issue. Like the 50 million other things that Firefox broke with the update to 13. -_-
EDIT: This issue has since persisted with 14.0.1.

Try to install the DejaVu font.

Korean characters not displaying on itunes

I transferred my korean music to my macbook from windows computer...In my folder or file, it shows in Korean perfectly fine with no gibberish language. However, when I open them in itunes, in itunes a couple of the songs do not display in the korean characters..instead it shows in gibberish and I don't know how to fix this. Do i have to individually change the songs that are like that ? Not every song is like this. Majority of my songs are fine showing in korean language properly in itunes, but only a select number don't...Please tell me how to fix this. I already tried the ID3 Tags and REverse Unicode. Any other options??

Everything depends on your NLS parameters. If I do this on Oracle 11g I get:
select chr(203) from dual;

Webservice: Special characters not displayed correctly

Hi,
I'm facing a problem when retrieving informations via a webservice. I'm able to use it and data is retrieved but when there are special characters into the response they are not displayed correctly. Repsonse of the webservice is XML formatted.
It seems to be a charcter set problem, strange thing is that the response is ISO-8859-1 formatted, this charset should normally display special characters like (é à ...) correctly.
In my code I simply use an if_http_client object to use the webservice.
pv_result = pv_http_client->response->get_cdata( ).
Xml repsonse :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<![CDATA[Eetcaf�/Steakhuis Baskent]]>
Should be Eetcafé
How can I specify a charset for the response object?
I did the same in .NET, where I can bypass this issue specifying the charset like this.
Dim reader As New StreamReader(oResponse.GetResponseStream(), System.Text.Encoding.Default)
Thanks a lot for your help.

Chinese Characters not display when PDF for marketing doc

Hi All,
I have typed in some Chinese Characters into a Print Layout Document.

Hi Gordon,
I have applied the various asian language service pack for the Adobe Reader.
However, i am still not able to see the Chinese Characters in the PDF document when click on the PDF at SAP B1's Toolbar.
Step 1 : Update a PLD with Chinese Characters (as text or from database field). Eg. AR Invoice.
Step 2 : Set the PLD as Default Layout.
Step 3 : At AR Invoice, call out an existing Invoice, click on Preview. Chinese Character is able to be previewed and printed.
Convert to PLD.
Step 4 : At AR Invoice, call out an existing Invoice, click on PDF button at the Toolbar. Preview the PDF document. No Chinese Characters are displayed.
Is it due to Localisation? Localisation = Singapore
Please advise.

French special characters not displayed properly in discoverer 11g

Gurus
We are upgrading to discoverer 11.1.1.3
I have found that French special characters (letters with accents) are not displayed properly in the discoverer tool menu.
Example
Sélectionner is displayed as S?lectionner.
This doesn't seem to be a server issue as one of the tester (in U.S) is able to see the french characters displayed and ironically it is not the case in France itself where this is required.
Please help
Regards
Ariv

Pl post details of the two clients being used in this scenario - the exact OS version, browser version, browser language settings, Java version etc
Since the accented character shows on one client , the issue is with the client or the settings on the client where the accented character is not showing correctly.
