  • Special Characters shown as question marks

    Hi everyone.
    I have an iPhone 4 since December 2010 but im having a problem, everytime i recieve or send a text message with special characters such as:
    ñ á é ç ó etc... i recieve this characters with question mark (?) i called IUSACELL which is my carrier here in México and the told me that this is an iPhone problem because they ran somes test with some iPhones they have there and everything went fine. This is quite annoying.
    The problem showed up when i had iOS 4.3.5, now i'm iOS 5 Beta 5 and is still there!!
    Regards.
    Some images here.
    The word is "Llegué"
    The word is "Quedé"
    The word is "Años"
    The word is "Quién"
    PS. Sorry for my bad english

    Sounds that you have a problem with the font that is used to display those characters.<br />
    You can try some different default fonts (e.g. Arial, Verdana, Tahoma) to see if you can identify the not working font.<br />
    You will have to reinstall or refresh that font.

  • Special characters function stuck

    Hello:
    I've been a Mac person for just over a year and have just experienced the first "crash" of a Mac program. I was writing an email and needed the Euro symbol, but after I clicked on Special Characters in the Edit menu, the box wouldn't open -- the circle in the middle was doing it's spinning thing (not the rainbow circle) and then would disappear. I have a 19" flat panel monitor active and open next to my MacBook, and if I click on that screen the Special Characters box appears with the disc in the middle, but it's frozen. I finished the email anyway, then tried again unsuccessfully to get the Special Characters open. I closed everything down and let the computer rest a few minutes, then rebooted, but still nothing. Should I simply reinstall Leopard, or is there another solution?
    Thanks,
    Medren

    To make a Euro, try typing Option/alt + shift + 2. € (for a US keyboard layout).
    Try trashing the .plist in Home/Library/Preferences that has charpaletteserver in its name.

  • Text fields special characters problem in forms created with ID

    Hi there,
    I'm creating form document with ID.
    The problem with special characters appears after exporting file to interactive pdf.
    When filling up text field, special characters (polish language specials in my case) are replaced by squares.
    I do not know if this is a ID problem (and I should set encoding during pdf creation somehow) or Acrobat/Reader problem (tried both and also in Polish or English versions).
    Some help would be appreciated.

    I am Creative Cloud User and downloaded fresh ID less than 2 hours ago.. And honestly the last thing I would think about was updating.
    But in fact - it was the problem.
    So thank you very much for help!

  • Remove spaces and special characters from a form field

    Hi,
    I am tragically new to all of this, but am trying to create a form in Adobe Acrobat 9.  I am trying to use a Custom Format script to take inputs in a form field and automatically remove spaces and special characters (hyphens specifically).  For example, if a user inputs "RAN-99 06" I would like it to change to "RAN9906."  I found this script that will not let users input special characters
    if (!event.willCommit) {
        event.change = event.change.replace(/[\$#~%\*\*\^\-\(\)\+=\[\]\{\};\"\<\>\?\|\\\!]/g, "");
    And that's okay, but I can't figure out how to disallow spaces.  Also, the perference would be for a script to allow users to input the data as they like, but to clean it up after they leave the text field.
    Thanks in advance!

    From the description, I assume that the script is currently in the Keystroke event. In fact, that would be a most logical way to have it; simply ignore anything unwanted when entered.
    If you want to allow the user to enter anything, but "clean it up" when done, you would place your code in the Validate event. You will have to adjust your Regular Expression so that it works globally, but that's the whole difference. This will change the value.
    Note that you can also enter the code into the Format event. However, that would only change the visual representation of the value, but internally, the value would remain as entered.
    Hope this can help.

  • Adobe Interactive Forms ZCI  with special characters

    Hi,
    I hope somebody can help me with the problem described below.
    We are using Adobe Interactive Forms ZCI (IF). On our IF we placed a Enumerated DDL from the Webdynpro Native tab. In the Visual Admin the number of entries for the DDL is 50 (default). The problem is that when the DDL consists of more than 50 entries a webdynpro pop-up screen is shown. In our DDL we have entries with “special” characters for example the apostrophe (ie. ‘s). When I select one of these entries it’s not displayed correctly in the form. It is displayed as 's.
    We are using Adobe reader 7.08. I also tested it with reader 8.1.0 and there the problem still occurs.
    We are using NW04s SP12.
    Thanks in advance,
    Kind regards,
    Maarten.

    Hello Saujanya,
    This is not what i meant.
    The problem isn't that not all entries are listed in the EVS, but that when the EVS is displayed and i select an entry with a "special" character like i.e.. a apostrophe (') the selected value isn't correctly displayed in the DDL as selected item. Say the i select from the EVS the value " 's " when the EVS is gone the value in the DDL is &apos;s. This is not correct.
    Hope this explanation will help.
    Kind regards,
    Maarten.

  • HTML special characters in form input

    In my site I store form input in my database. Before I store
    the data, I parse out smart quotes, en dashes, and other extended
    special characters and convert them into HTHML quivalents such as
    &#8217;
    All is well and good until the user goes to edit their info.
    In my form these characters show up in my <input> tags as
    their long-winded HTML equivalents, such as &#8217; instead of
    a smart apostrophe.
    Is there any way to convert these back to the special
    characters from the HTML on the form input text fields so that
    users can edit them without being confused?
    Thanks.

    Hmmm, well I ran the MX 6.1 updater and installed the two hot
    fixes that had to do with null pointer exceptions and it still does
    not work.

    ideas? Thanks again for the help, I'm really stuck on this one...

  • Special characters are not shown in compare document report in Acrobat X

  • Special characters not shown in OBIEE report

    Hi
    We are facing an issue with column values containing special characters in the reports(OBIEE 11G, 11.1.1.6.5). In-spite of actual column values i.e. special characters, NULL is displayed/shown. It would be very helpful if any work-around/pointer is provided for the resolution of this issue.
    Thanks

  • No recognition of special characters after upgrading to Adobe Reader X

    Hello all,
    we  use a document-manager-software "Accantum" to scan and to archive PDFs.  After upgrading to Adobe Reader X no german special characters (e.g.  äöüß ...) are recognized by the document-manager.  All words with  special characters look fine on screen or printer, only the recognition  by the document-manager outputs either "%" or no character in the  destination-PDF-file. Scanning a version 9.x - PDF is still working  fine.
    Please give me a little hint
    Thanks. Stephan

    I don' think so, cause AR 9x -documents of the identical source are recognized absolutely correct and the error occurred exactly after upgrading to AR X (10.0.1).
    Perhaps there is a way to look into the OCR-Text embedded in the PDF-file?
    Thanks
    Stephan

  • Embedded font has extra space after special characters

    I've built a web-based Flash movie for a major client. The SWF uses an embedded font and loads text from an XML document. The client is localizing it for several languages, which of course include special characters. In this case, the å character is giving us problems -- it always renders with an extra space after it. For example, the Danish word spørgsmål is rendered as spørgsmå l.
    I might be inclined to think something's wrong with the font, because it doesn't happen with other fonts. However, some Googling turned up several other cases of people with similar problems using different fonts.
    When I remove the font embedding, the problem disappears. I can watch it do this right in the IDE. As soon as I embed characters again, the phantom space returns. And it doesn't happen in any other applications.
    I've spent many hours trying all kinds workarounds, but I've come up with nothing so far. As I said, I've found several other mentions of this problem but the only solution I've seen is "use a different font." In this case I can't -- it's a corporate identity font that's required for this project!
    If it makes any difference, I'm linking the font in the library, then specifying the embedded characters for the text fields. I also have text fields created entirely in Actionscript (AS3) that behave exactly the same way.
    Please tell me there's a solution to this! I'm pretty positive this is a Flash bug at this point, though I'd be happy if someone proved me wrong.

    Hi,
    I read the following on another discussion in this forum:
    it appears that with the shortkey ctrl+shift+Y you can force the pc to work around the system fonts
    Maybe that helps.

  • Forms and Czech special characters

    Hello everybody,
    I created a form to update calendar events. I used Czech language to made labels of inputs in the form. Czech special characters aren't display correctly. Others applications, pages and CAs are OK. Just I have problems with forms. The characters are replaced with senseless characters and if I save the form again, the sensless characters are added. So I have longer and longer strings there.
    I found that the labels are saved in the table "WWA_FORM_ITEMS$". So I changed them directly in this table. But you know, it's annoying.
    Does anybody knows if there is more comfortable solution?
    I'm using Portal 3.0.8 and database 8.1.7.
    Thanks for any answer. You can use also this address: [email protected]
    Petra :)

    again.
    Hi Petra,
    i've had the same problem with german characters. As far as I know it is a bug
    (either in Portal or in Interner Explorer).
    You can use Netscape to design your forms or (that's how I do it) use the
    html equivalent for your letter. For example instead of "&auml;" (or d) use "& a u m l ;"
    (without the blanks - I hope that this will be displayed correctly).
    Regards Oliver

  • How to use Special Characters in CONCAT function or another form with Xquer

    Hello everyone
    I'm using PS3 OEPE within message flow (proxy)and I'm using Xquery.
    I'm using the CONCAT function, but this does not allow me to concatenate special characters not allowed, for example:
    I want to concatenate these strings:
    String1 = “&amp;lt;get-person&amp;gt;&amp;lt;id-person&amp;;gt;”
    String2 = “123”
    String3 = “&amp;lt;/id-person&amp;;gt; &amp;lt;/get-person&amp;gt;”
    I want to represent characters regex. It means no XML characters
    Someone knows some way, any function that allows me to concatenate in OSB these values with Xquery?
    Edited by: chromosoma on Sep 5, 2012 5:59 PM

    Hi,
    It seems to me you're doing things in the most complicated way possible...
    Firstly, you should use codepoints-to-string not the reverse... Secondly, the function work with decimals, not hexa
    http://www.xqueryfunctions.com/xq/fn_codepoints-to-string.html
    http://www.xqueryfunctions.com/xq/fn_string-to-codepoints.html
    This works...
    concat(codepoints-to-string(38),'lt',codepoints-to-string(59),'get-person')But this also works... Note that I've inserted a space between the &amp; and the lt so the forum formatting can show it...
    let
    $String1 := "& lt;get-person& gt;& lt;id-person& gt;",
    $String2 := "123",
    $String3 := "& lt;/id-person& gt;& lt;/get-person& gt;"
    return
         concat($String1,$String2,$String3)And, finally this also works... So what's the reason for escaping &lt; and &gt; with &amp;lt and &amp;gt; and why codepoints?
    let
    $String1 := "<get-person><id-person>",
    $String2 := "123",
    $String3 := "</id-person></get-person>"
    return
         concat($String1,$String2,$String3)Cheers,
    Vlad
