Vertical Text in OBIEE

Hi
Obiee experts,
Vertical (Column Heading in obiee) I am following below method.
Create a simple pivot-table and make sure you have the column you want to be displayed in it. When you are in the Pivot result view click on the value formatting of your column and add the following text to your CSS-window :
1. Writing-mode: tb-rl; filter: flipv fliph;
I have done this method susessfuly but when i am try to download PDF or Excel format it showing coulmn heading Horizontal value in the report .
1. Report level it's showing Verical but when try to download report its showing Horizontal .
How to fix the problem could you please let me know if you have any idea.
Thanks
satya

Satya,
The short answer to this question is that OBIEE is not pixel perfect reporting, BI Publisher (Published Reporting in OBIEE 11g) is what you would use to render/export a PDF document exactly as you design it in via the web-based report designer, etc.. OBI Answers/Analysis will get you close but it will never perfectly transition from what you see on the web to what you see in a PDF or MS Office document.
The real answer to why you can't do this lies in the section you describe in your steps. When you open up "Format Values..." for a column, the section to modify the CSS is called, "Custom CSS Style Options (HTML Only)". Notice the HTML Only. Meaning that the CSS style information you input will only work when viewing the HTML rendering.
That is your answer.
Please award points I'm starving.
Cheers,
Christian

Problem with vertical text in crystal report viewer

Hi,
I am displaying vertical text in crystal report designer and deploying the report in crystal reports server 2008. The deployed report is being displayed using JAVA in crystal report viewer control.
Problem: Vertical text header is getting collapsed wth other vertical headers.
Please help on this.
Thanks,

Hi Vijay,
I found out another method of retaining all the chart formatting that is done in the preview pane.
Once you have done all the changes then you will find interestingly there is a chart menu option that appears in the tool bar. Once you click on it there is an option "Apply Changes to All Charts".
Select that option, close your preview. Open it once again and you will find that all the settings are still there and the Web Viewer is able to display them properly.
I think that I resolved this.

Vertical Text in PDF using CFDOCUMENT

I am using font tag in a CSS file to layout a table header
using vertical text. In HTML, the vertical text looks fine.
However, when I convert the table to a pdf using
<cfdocument>, the vertical text is displayed as horizintal
text and does not follow the css specified font family, color or
size.
Here is the line in the CCS I am referencing:
.header_vertical {FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-SIZE: 8pt;
FONT-STYLE: normal; writing-mode:tb-rl; FONT-FAMILY: helvetica,
arial, verdana, sans-serif; TEXT-DECORATION: none; COLOR: #0f437c}
This is CFMX7 on a Windows Server 2003 OS running IIS.
Any ideas???
Thanks.

Hi there, did you find a solution to this?
I had the same issue and no matter what i tried it didn't
work. I found out that CFDOCUMENT doesn't support CSS2.
Eventually I came up with a clunky solution, but had no other
choice. I bought some imaging software called Alagad (
http://www.alagad.com) which
produces the vertical text as images on the fly. Its not ideal, but
there was no ther way I could disply the text.
Hope this helps you.

Weird problem with vertical text in a table

Hello,
I am new on this forum, usually I don't post because I always find the answer to my question, but this is something quite weird...
I have a table with vertical text in it (it has to be vertical because the cells are narrow). And I want it to be centered in the cell, both vertically and horizontally. When the cell is high enough, no problem. But as it becomes shorter, the text moves to the left. It is exactly as if there was a right margin within the cell, which is not the case.
See the example below : I had the text right-aligned (this is to say, bottom-aligned, as it is 270° rotated) to make it more visible.
Can someone help me there ? I already spent hours on that problem..!
Thank you very much !

Only, my table contents both vertical and horizontal text, so I can't. But thanks for the suggestion.
Thank you kindly for all your answers. Anyway, re-writing the text in separate frames won't be so difficult (anyway it'll always take less time than what that problem already did..).
So I have a solution, thanks to Phorna
But remains the frustration of not finding the reason of this ! I will live along with it
Thanks to all

Creating Vertical text in horizontal position ... ??

Hi
I am tring to print text onto address labels in a vertical orientaion (for final use). I have a large CD collection and I am trying to print headings for plastic cards that have a small tab that sticks out. I found small address labels to be the perfect size to stick on. However, I will be appling the labels vertically.
Pages allows you to take horizontal text and rotate it, BUT the letters are NOT stacked on top of each other, you just end up with diagnol or sideways rotated text.
WordArt in MS Word allows you to orient the text the way I want, but I was hoping for an easier solution in Pages - as the resizing in wordart is cumbersome and fixed to varies intervalls, you cannot enter specific number sizes.
I hope I was decribing this clearly.
Thanks AL

You can achieve the effect you want by creating a text box (it should be set for Moves With Text and Wrap should be off). Type your text with a return after each letter and then narrow the box to fit the vertical text. Next, in the Text Inspector center the text. Go to the Metrics inspector and type "90" in the Angle box at the bottom.
You should be able to copy and paste this to your template.

Vertical text direction / orientation in tables. (RoboHelp 7 and/or 8)

Hello all,
I need to squeeze a fairly full table (lots of columns) into a printable page width.
In order to do this, I need to put text into some of the cells so that they read vertically. I can do this in MS Word tables (menu > Format > Text Direction) and need an equivalent in RH. Preferably RH7, (but can import into RH8 if I must ).
Any ideas anyone?

Hi Philip
My guess is that you can probably fudge it using CSS. But it won't be something RoboHelp will assist with in any way.
Check the link below for one hit I found. Use Google searching for vertical text in HTML to find others.

Vertical text in CR 2008

Hello,
I need to display the text in the columns labels vertically. When I set text rotation to 90 degrees, the text is rotated in the designer, but when I run the report - it's horizontal. However, when I print or export the report, the text is vertical again.
After searching Google I've found out that this is a known bug in CR. However, I didn't find any solution other than using a CSS file. I've never used CSS with the Crystal Reports, so I wonder - is there any other solution to this problem? I need the text to be vertical on the web site as well.
Thank you.

Vertical text in PDF- XSL-FO

Hi Guys,
We are trying to display a vertical text is a column in a PDF file. ( 90 o rotation of horizontal test).
Is it possible in XSL-FO transformation? Could you please throw some light on this?
(As we have lot of columns we are not able to display the column headings horizontally. )
Thanks in anticipation
Regards
Rajesh

You have two questions here.
1. Can you have rotated text in PDF?
2. Is there an XSL-FO construct to produce that?
3.
three questions...
3. There must be a third question here about Java Programming somewhere.

Vertical text in charts appears upside-down in Acrobat pdf

When I copy a chart with vertical text from Tableau into Word and then Save as Adobe PDF, the vertical text appears upside-down.
When I copy a chart with vertical text from Tableau into Word and then Save as PDF using Word's built in PDF creator, the vertical text appears correctly.
This bug occurs in both Adobe Acrobat 11 and Acrobat Pro DC. Can Adobe fix this bug?

Never mind. I solved the problem myself. It turns out I needed to embed the font I used in the text boxes. Once I did that, everything shows up fine.

Vertical Text in PowerPoint saved as a PDF

I just created a document in PowerPoint with vertical text. When I saved the document, some of the vertical text and rotated back to horizontal changing the format of my document. Is there a way to save a PowerPoint document as PDF without changing the vertical text.

I think you really need to ask that in a Microsoft Office forum.
