Apostophe shown as ? in PDF

Hi
We are using BI Publisher 10.1.3.3 version to generate reports. When an apostophe used as a text in the layout e.g. 'Applicant's info:', when the report is run, it shows as 'Applicant?s info:' in PDF.
In fact this problem applies to all the special characters like - (dash), ? (interrogation mark), double quotes, single quotes.
Can someone help us on sorting this out?
Kind regards,
Aparna

Hi
Checked the report again by changing font to 'Arial'. But, it still does not work.
Please note that we are using BIP (10.1.3.3) java APIs by integrating them in Oracle Forms to launch the reports. We are not using BIP server as a product on its own.
Kind regards,
Aparna

HTML Sites not shown in TOC (PDF) - RoboHelp HTML (v9)

Hello ,
i have a new question. I didn't find an answer in the www so I'm asking here again.
I have a automatically generated TOC where I see all my books(directories) and html sites which are listed in the project-manager.
If I create an WebHelp I can see the html sites in the generated TOC, but if I create an pdf (printed documentation) I only see the books in my TOC inside the pdf.
Why I don't see any html sites in the TOC like it is in the web help?
But the pdf-generating-process write automatically all my headlines(inside the html sites) in my TOC.
I imagine that the printed documentation will create his own TOC and ignore my TOC which I selected.
Can someone help me show my html sites in the TOC like the automatically creation process of WebHelp will do it?
Thanks
kind regards
Denis

Just picking up on one point that may help. The very first time you use a Printed Documentation layout, the contents are taken from whichever TOC you selected. After that, any changes you make to the TOC do not reflect in the print layout. The quick way to update the print layout is to click the left facing double chevron to remove all topics, then click the right facing double chevron to take the latest version of the TOC.
See Printed Documentation on my site.
If that doesn't help, maybe some screenshots would help.

Flyleaf and end paper aren't shown up in pdf workflow

Hi
I want to order a book, but I'm hesitating. The book jacket appears on the pdf workflow but flyleaf and end paper don't. Instead of this page two reproduces a white ground with the book title on it.
Should this be so ?
Aperture theme is modern style and big hardcover.
Any help appreciated
Thanks

Graphic is shown twice in PDF

In the whole system that I work on, one figure appears twice
in the PDF version only-- not the online version. It's on the
second page of the printed manual so it's hard to ignore. I've
looked at the HTML, compared with other figures, looked at
characteristics of graphic files, and I can't find what causes it.
If it's of interest, this is a GIF file. Does anyone else get this
problem?

External-graphic not shown in PDF with Tomcat / Cocoon / Ubuntu

Hi,
this weekend I set up a virtualbox with Ubuntu 8.04 OS; APEX 3.12 @ Oracle 10gXE; Tomcat 6.014; Cocoon 2.1.11; fop_post sitemap file according to Carl Backstrom blogpost ([http://carlback.blogspot.com/2007/03/apex-cocoon-pdf-and-more.html]); to experiment with APEX & PDF printing.
Tomcat is configured to listen to port 8888; APEX to 8080.
I have setup APEX according to Carl's blogpost. All is working fine; I can generate PDF reports using the standard templates. I'm new to XSL, but decided to go wild. I decided to include a JPG graphic.
I followed the example in Scott & Spendolini, Pro Oracle Application Express, page 399. However the image is not shown in the PDF, nor is there an error message produced. What is wrong?
This is the relevant section of source code I have used:
<fo:static-content flow-name="region-footer">
<fo:block xsl:use-attribute-sets="text footer">
<fo:inline xsl:use-attribute-sets="body-font page-number">
<fo:external-graphics width="50px" height="50px" src='url("http://www.fiat128.nl/images/fiat128.jpg")'/>
<fo:page-number/>
</fo:inline>
</fo:block>
<fo:block xsl:use-attribute-sets="text text_2 #PAGE_FOOTER_ALIGNMENT#">
<fo:inline xsl:use-attribute-sets="page-footer">#PAGE_FOOTER#</fo:inline>
</fo:block>
</fo:static-content>
all help is appreciated. Is there a problem with Cocoon and Linux?
many regards,
Ronald van Dijk

Hello Ronald,
Your code looks fine to me. Although xsl-fo is not very friendly for a slight change...
This is an example I use during my PDF printing presentation:
<fo:static-content flow-name="region-header">
<fo:block xsl:use-attribute-sets="text text_2 text_0 #PAGE_HEADER_ALIGNMENT#">
<fo:inline xsl:use-attribute-sets="page-header">#PAGE_HEADER#</fo:inline>
</fo:block>
<fo:block border="0.5pt solid silver"
background-image="url('http://o11g1.apex-evangelists.com:7779/i/htmldb/apex_logo.gif')"
padding="12pt"
text-align="center">Apex Evangelists
</fo:block>
</fo:static-content>
Does that work for you?
(change o11g1.apex-evangelists.com:7779 to your hostname:port - and see that you get the image by using the url)
I've sometimes seen problems displaying certain pictures or specifying the width.
Regards,
Dimitri

It looks like you didn't register PDF file type in your search service application.
Go to Central Administration->Manage Service Application. Click on the name of your search service application and check file types (link in the left column)

Customize standard PDF layout for PO Report

Hi,
I need to customize the layout of standard PO report in R12 instance.
Navigation Path:Purchasing Vision Operations (USA) -->Buyer Work Center -->Orders
Under view : My open orders,click on a specific PO number.
At the detail level,on the top right side Actions seleceted as 'View PDF' and then click on GO button.
The PO report output opened in a PDF format.Here I need to do some modifications for the customization report.
So could you please tell me where do I start from.The changes that I did should be shown in the PDF PO report Output.
One more query is : How can I indentify this PDF PO report output belongs to which concurrent program?
Appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Radhika

Hi,
Welcome to forum !!!
Your buyer work center form basically points to standard PO functionality and bring all info in 1 page for buyer. Please check PO Output for Communication process for details.
One more query is : How can I indentify this PDF PO report output belongs to which concurrent program?
Ans : I believe "PO Output for Communication" ( it's a request in POXPOPDF module) which generate the PDF, its a Java concurrent program.*
Hoep this will help.

Can't save Publisher file correctly as PDF

I have always been able to save Publsiher files as PDF files w/o any problem. Just recently, my Publsiher documents, when saved as a PDF file, have been saving only half of each page on a two page spread. The right side of the left page and the left side of the right page are shown in the PDF document and I cannot figure out how to solve this problem. PLEASE help. I need to send the file to other members of my group and they cannot view the file correctly.
Thank you!

Not sure why you ask in the Adobe Reader forum; I would think the problem is on the MS Publisher side?

Convert Excel to PDF using specific font Avant Garde ends up with missing text

Hello, hopefully someone can help me out. I have a problem with converting a specific Excel document to PDF using Acrobat 6.0.6. Whenever this document is converted to PDF, on one specific computer there is are missing lines of text. The font of the text is Avant Garde. I can change the font to something like Arial and it will convert fine and all text will be shown in the PDF.
I've already reinstalled Windows on this PC with its bare essentials and sure enough the problem persists.
The Avant Garde font is installed by way of Adobe Type Mangager Light 4.1. The fonts are Post Script .PFB. I have a second and third PC with the same setup and these other two can successfully convert the Excel to PDF using Acrobat 6.0.6 without any problems (using the same Avant Garde font).
I can uninstall and then reinstall Acrobat 6.0.6 and this will fix the problem temporarily but it will eventually come back within a day or two.
Is there anything anyone can think of that would cause this problem to occur?

I suspect the font is not embedded and not on that machine. You might try selecting "use Local Fonts" to see if it works that way. To check embedding, select ctrl-D and the font tab, or go to the document properties and select the font tab (they keep moving these around and don't remember where it is in AA6).
If the font is not embedded, then change your job settings for creating the PDF to Press or Print forms and see if that solves the problem.

PDF Output: Why is "PDF Review" styled different than "Generate PDF"?

I am new to RH. I have imported a folder of HTML files (used in an Eclipse Help plugin) into RH9 for HTML as a project. My goal is to produce a PDF document.
When I generate a PDF from Printed Documentation in the Single Source Layouts pad, many styles are incorrect. I've tried generating to Word and from there to PDF with the same effect.
However, when I use Create PDF for Review from Project Manager the styles shown in the PDF (fonts, alignment, etc) are nearly perfect! Is the PDF Review option using a different CSS?
I have tried exploring the CSS specified in the Generate PDF flow, but I am unable to make changes, perhaps due to my massive state of confusion. So I'm losing hope that I could manually tweak to CSS that I think I use in the Generate PDF flow to appear like the "PDF Review" flow. I specified the same CSS used in the Eclipse Help system, but evidently there must be some defaults built into the Eclipse viewer that are not specified in the CSS we use.
Thanks in advance,
Charly in SJ

Here's what I think is happening. You say PDF review is good but printed documentation gives wrong styles. You also say you assume PDF review uses the Stylesheet (CSS) for each topic, yes it does. Now if that is giving the correct styles it tells you that is what you need when you generate printed documentation.
When you use a Word template you will get very different styles unless you have set up the template to mirror your CSS. Using the Map to CSS option you have two choices, you can select None when each topic will be printed according to the CSS attached to the topic or you can select one of the CSS files available in the project.
I suspect that if you select the None option, you will get the same as you are seeing in the PDF review.
If your document is not going to be worked on by anyone, such as a training department using it as a based document, then the CSS options are fine. If others will be working on it, then the Word template option is better as lists will be true lists and headings will be true heading styles.

Smartfomrs to PDF conversion error

Dear Experts,
I have a requirement to convert smart forms to PDF.
After converting smartforms to PDF, I am getting the following errors.
1. Special signs like u201C&u201D, are shown as <& > in PDF.
2. Some line breaks which are in smartforms are not appearing in the PDF.
(How to handle the same during smartforms to PDF)
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
in more than once I´ve experimented the same problem. What I do is to replace the text in my form:
REPLACE ALL OCCURENCES OF '>' IN aux_text WITH '"'.
REPLACE ALL OCCURENCES OF '<' IN aux_text WITH '"'.
you can insert a line break like this:
CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CR_LF
but in both cases you must set a break point in your form where the text is processed to find out what´s wrong. It could be that system cannot understand some characters as HTML escape code. This is the case in web development when working with text boxes.

Poor Image quality upon PDF export

hi,
issue: images lose quality when viewed in PDFs
i've searched/read these and other forums for the past few days and have tried just about every suggestion out there in order to get better quality images in my PDFs and nothing works.. it's as if everyone is talking some theory without actually testing/proving what they're saying.
are pdfs inherently bad at handling raster images?
i have a few 800x1200 px renders (tiffs/jpgs) that i'd like to include in a PDF.. i'm using A4 landscape orientation because when viewed at full size on a 24" monitor, it's the size i'd like it to be (i'm not concerned with printing this pdf.. monitor only)
the images when view full size in the pdf are a bit smaller than viewing the original images full size however, the quality is a lot worse.
honestly, i'll try or retry your suggestions but at this point, i'm more/less looking for an explanation as to why this happens because from what i can tell, it's going to happen no matter what
gracias

Not sure what you are expecting.
well, i'm certainly expecting better quality than what i'm getting..
The jpg is contrasty and it is lower resolution than you need, but you did say that above. Which means I am not looking at what you are looking at.
The color space is srgb and the conversion from the tiff would have reduced the quality a little or a lot depending on your settings.
it doesn't matter if i use the original tiff or the jpg.. for all intents and purposes, let's forget i even have the tiff.. the jpg should look the same in the pdf (imo)
Did you print to pdf or Export? If you exported, did you use "Best" as your setting.
i've done all sort of methods.. but yeah, always at highest quality if said method allows such settings..
It has lost some contrast and is a little blurry. It looks to my eye like the degradation you get from setting the jpeg quality a little low.
well, no.. it has gone from something that is in focus to something that is out of focus.. if i open the jpg in photoshop and do a 'save as' jpg with the quality set to 3 (with 12 being best), i will get similar results as putting the jpg in a pdf.. (albeit, a different type of quality loss but just as bad)
you've seen the comparison but just in case someone else wants to look, check here:
http://homepage.mac.com/jeffhammond/Sites/imgs/origVSpdf.jpg
that's a screenshot showing the jpg on the right and the pdf output on the left (both viewed in preview)..
it's unacceptable.. but like i said earlier, i think this is an inherent aspect of pdfs and i'd settle for a decent explanation as to why it happens..
OSX has some very smart frameworks built in, which do make bitmaps displayed on screen in Cocoa apps look better than they should. Not exactly helpful if you simply want to see it unenhanced.
but still, if that's the case, why isn't osx doing the same thing to the pdf.. (and also, i highly doubt the actual quality of the image is being shown in the pdf but when i view the jpg, i'm being shown an enhanced view to the point of making an out-of-focus image being an in focus image.
