Additional Problem with Smartform Chinese Character Output

Hi all!
This is a follow-up to my earlier question about output of Chinese Characters in Smartforms.
As a recap, my problem is to correctly output Chinese characters in my Smartform using English logon. Using the OSS Note: 776507 that Anji sent, I managed to output in my Smartform preview the Chinese characters. However, when I print a hardcopy, I still get the # characters.
I tried uploading the font that outputs the chinese characters on MS Office, specifically Arial Unicode MS. It was automatically assigned to the printer driver (I think).
Is there anything I am doing or did wrong?
Thanks in advance for the help. Points for any useful answer.

Hi Pat,
I have installed the lastest version of Adobe Reader (10.0.1) and Adobe Reader Font Pack (Asian Font Pack) and the results are as below:
tested that the file (.pdf) cannot be displayed correctly
It is appreciate if you have any idea for the issue. Thanks.
Just let you know that the simplified chinese characters may inserted by the software (Free PDF Reader and Writer - Nitro Reader 3.1.1.3).

Problem with SAP Script FAX output

Hi Friends,
I have problem with SAP Script Fax output.
After I issued output using the messge type, the print preview format shows me correct alignments and the right data. But when I go to List display using the menu bar functions from the print preview screen, the list is showing me the right data, but all the alignments at the main window went wrong.
How do I rectify this problem? I need correct alignments in both form display and list display.

Hi Sasidhar,
Have you tried with different fax machine.

Problem with photos on dvd output

Not sure where the kink is in my process, exactly, but maybe someone will have run into this before...
i'm working with hi-res photos in my FCP sequences mixed with HDV video. I've been using the motion tab to resize and everything looks fine in final cut. When i use compressor to output the m2v file using the standard dvd presets, some of the stills have problems on the resulting file. not all of them look bad and it doesn't seem to be discriminating based on resolution of the original image file. I'm sure there's a good explanation, but the photos that get messed up seem to be random. some look great.
In the .m2v file played directly off of QT, they sort of just look darker, like perhaps they are interlaced strangely or something and the even or odd rows are black. but when i use that file to burn a dvd in dvd studio pro, the resulting image looks crazy messed up. Anyone know how to wrangle this one? Thanks

In case someone else runs into this problem, i did some extensive chatting with a final cut guru guy and all we could figure out is that i'm experiencing some sort of bug. that it shouldn't have been doing what it was doing. It started happening after my boss upgraded all of the studio software and quicktime to the latest versions. upon closer inspection, what was happening is that some of my photos were missing fields when exported as a qt, some weird byproduct of interlacing. we tried the settings all sorts of different ways and the problem did, indeed, go away when i changed the sequence to progressive, but i didn't want to sacrifice resolution of the rest of the footage just because of the problem with the few photos that were janky, so i found two workarounds that fixed the problem...
1) using the de-interlace effect on just the photos that were giving me problems. it lowered the resolution, but not enough to make a difference and it looked good.
2) using the motion blur effect. This filled in the missing fields and i did it at such an unnoticeable setting that it might have even looked better than the pictures i de-interlaced.
If this jogs someone's brain as to what the actual problem was in the first place and you think it's not just a bug in the system, then i'd be interested to hear how to avoid the problem in the future.

Problem with printing in character mode

Hi
I got a genuine problem in printing continous payslips using character mode with a TALLY6050 printer.
I guess there is a problem with the page setup when i try to print via windows. using different sizes of paper (Letter, A4, A3), the printed data is shifting from one page to another but the shift is following a same trend.
i tried to put one payslip per page using page breaks, but in vain. Three payslips are being printed on one page when viewed in the print perview.
Can anyone suggest any help or tips so that i can solve this problem?
Thanks for your help

Thanks for your response. I went ahead and filed a Correction Action Request for your orignal issue, since I was able to reproduce the same behavior when I ran your VI. The solution of printing the front panel of a subVI displaying the same graph is a workaround for this problem. Please look at the following KnowledgeBase for more details on how to do this. Hope this helps!

Problems with EURO currency character

Hi,
I'm trying to insert the EURO currency character (€) in a CHAR field from a Java client but after the insert in the field I find a ? turned upside down.
I'm using
- Oracle DB server 11.2.0.1.0 running with character set US7ASCII (same problem with a different Oracle server with WE8ISO8859P1 encoding) on a Linux Red Hat server
- Java client with JDBC driver 11.2.0.1.0 (ojdbc5.jar) with JDK 5 running on Windows XP: the encoding of the JVM is CP1252.
I've googled a lot but found only solutions like "... change the encoding of the DB ...": I can't change the DB encoding.
Any idea?
Thanks.
Here's is a test case:
************ begin test case ************
Statement stmt = null;
PreparedStatement pst = null;
Connection conn = null;
ResultSet rs = null;
try {
     Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
     conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@SERVER:1521:SID", "USER", "PASSWORD");
     stmt = conn.createStatement();
     stmt.execute("CREATE TABLE JJOVA(A CHAR(5) NOT NULL)");
     stmt.close();
     pst = conn.prepareStatement("INSERT INTO JJOVA(A) VALUES(?)");
     pst.setString(1, "€");
     pst.execute();
     stmt = conn.createStatement();
     rs = stmt.executeQuery("select A from JJOVA");
     while (rs.next()) {
          String tmp = rs.getString(1);
          System.out.println(tmp);
     rs.close();
     pst.close();
     stmt = conn.createStatement();
     stmt.execute("DROP TABLE JJOVA");

Thank you Oradba for the explanation of the COBOL program behavior: we're going to change the DB character set (export/import seems not required, we've found an Oracle Note 257722.1 "Changing WE8ISO8859P1 to WE8ISO8859P15"). I'll mark your answer as the (most) correct.
Oviwan, NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET is AL16UTF16: I tried with an NCHAR field but I can't even store correctly accented vowels.
Thank you very much everyone,
Andrea

Problem with the specail Character '&'

Hi,
I am facing problem with special character '&' in report files. When I run the report locally(report builder), i am getting the data printed with '&' correctly. But if I execute same report thr' the application, via application server, I am getting the data printed with "&:". It is not displaying &. Please suggest me how to overcome this problem.
'ADP & Liablility' is printed as 'ADP & Liablility' in the web. We are not sending any value thr' the url. This is just a report title. Taking the value from the database and printing it.
Appreciate the quick response.
Thanks and Regards,
A.K.Malathi

Hi Andres,
I've seen this situation before with several characters that don't display in certain fonts even though font.canDisplay(char) evaluates true.
For example, Courier New (among many others) and \u20ac . (I don't know why this is?)
Anyway, use the Ariel Unicode MS font and it will display.

Joe

Having problem with typing chinese in OS X Lion

After installing OS X Lion, I am having problem with typing traditional chinese in my own account. Everytime I switch to traditional chinese the computer become extremely slow and the finally freezed. However, when I am using visitor account, I can type in traditional chinese without any problem. How should I fix this?

Normally differences like that between main and visitor accounts indicate a bad .plist in Home/Library/Preferences in the main account. I don't know which one might cause this...

Fonts problem with Smartforms...

Hi Gurus,
I have a problem with fonts in smartforms.
My smartforms fonts are working fine in testing server but not working fine in development server. We work like after development we transport the object to stage (Testing) & then to production. I see the last modifications done were 1 st may 2008 but in development the last changes are shown 7th July 2008. So what I think is the object is not completely transported to testing server? What could be the other reason please let me know ASAP.
Thanks,
Hemal

Hi Hema,
May be the reason that your smartsyle is not activated .Jus check whether the smartstyle is activated and transported properly.

Additional problems with Nat

We are still having problems with a workstation sending out a virus through
our Nat. If I enable filtering and use the default filters along with
denying all traffic with the default exceptions would that be the next
logical step in resolving this.

Is this an SMPT mailer virus? If so, you need to block the abiity for
workstations to get to public servers on port 25. The default filters
and exceptions do *not* allow this traffic, so either your filtering is
not even working, or you have an exception allowing such traffic.

UrlParam problem with Captivate 7 Flash output

Has anyone else had trouble with urlParam in Flash output for Captivate 7? I can't grab the first variable. It works fine with HTML5 output. Here is the script:
var objCP
if (typeof window.cp==='undefined') {
var objCp=document.getElementById('Captivate');
if(objCp && objCp.cpEIGetValue){
isHTML5 = false;
else {
if(cp.vm && cp.vm.getVariableValue){
isHTML5 = true;
var oURL = window.location.href.toString();
var URLparams = new Array();
if (oURL.indexOf("?") > 0){
//var split up by
var sValues = oURL.split("?");
var aValues = sValues[1].split("&");
for (i=0;i<aValues.length;i++){
//split by = sign
var sEquals = aValues[i].split("=");
URLparams[sEquals[0]]=sEquals[1];
setValue('checksum', URLparams);
setValue('csid', URLparams);
setValue('id', URLparams);
function setValue(id, URLParams){
if(isHTML5){
if(typeof window[id] === 'undefined'){
cp.vm.setVariableValue(id, URLparams[id]);
} else {
window[id] =URLparams[id];
} else {
objCP.cpEISetValue(id, URLparams[id]);
function getURLvalue(id, myarray){
for(var i=0; i<myarray.length;i++){
if(myarray[i][0] == id) return myarray[i][1];
return false;

The script is on the entry of the first slide to set the variables as the slide show begins. I did publish to both swf and html5. I'm using the index.html page for the html5 and the other htm page that contains the flash object. I have a php script that detects mobile devices to determine which content is displayed using iframes. I'm not sure what the multiscreen.html page is... ok I just read about the multiscreen and it looks like that page doesn't detect all devices correctly so I'm better off with the php script that I'm using. I'm adding the variable string to each url on the index page and also the htm page for embedded flash content.

Problem with Smartform output

Hi All,
We have purchase order output which prints as Smartform. This Smartform is collecting all data in using function module and finally converting it to PDF.
Sometimes we face a strange issue that all the text get right aligned and windows which are appearing in right side appear in left side on the PDF output. We are using CONVERT_OTF function module to convert OTF file to PDF format.
Can any body provide me solution / pointers to find out solution for this error?
Thanks
Siddarth

Hi Alexander,
Users are using language for logon and rest everything as English. They are not using Arabic or Hebrew anywhere.
Hi Nikolaus,
In all cases output medium is email and further printer is defined as LOCL only. Further this error is coming when auto email is triggered after purchase order is created. When I try to see print preview of the same PO is appearing correctly. Also this error is coming for random POs not all POs.
Thanks

Problem with the External send output for Portugal in Smartforms

Hello All,
I am facing an issue with a particular outtype for external send for portugal country.The print priview is of different font than original font of the form.
But When the same output type is assigned with the print output the form is showing the font with the original fonts of the form.
can any one suggest the solution for this?

Hello ,
Actually the same external send output type is working fine in the development system.This is having issue only in quality system.
And the condition records are maintained same in both dev system and quality system.
Does the capturing of Font play any Role...
I read some where that sometimes in translations a particular coutry might not hold the fonts.

Varun
