Arabic Reports on 9i
We have Migrated the applications from Forms 5/ Reports 3 to Forms/Reports 9i.
We are facing following problems at the moment.
1. Each reports displays the blank page at last and One Page report is coming in 2 Page.
2. We want to generate the Reports in PDF and it contains the Arabic Character, When we define the DESTYPE as CACHE abd DESFORMAT AS PDF. Arabic characters are not displayed correctly.
We have modified the uifont.ali file and included the PDF subset as mentioned
CAN ANYONE SUGGEST THE SOLUTION FOR THIS
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE

Hello Gloria,
Please specify how you are running your reports when you 'run from the web'. In Reports 9i, there are 2 ways you can run your report over the web:
1. Using rwservlet:
This method formats your report output based on the paper layout, This is the same output you will see when you run your report to Paper, in Reports Builder. Your 6i RDF reports should run fine using this method, without any change.
2. Using the JSP engine:
This method formats your report output based on the web layout, which will not exist in your 6i report. To use this method for your reports, you would need to use the <rw:include> tag in your web layout to migrate the existing paper layout, and save your report as a JSP.
Thanks,
The Oracle Reports Team.

Printing of Arabic Report 10g on Printer
Hi,
I have created a 132 column arabic report in 10g. While calling the same from form as HTML format, it displays all the labels and values fully. When i direct the same to dot matrix printer, the font size is getting bigger and becoz of this, only 2/3 of the report gets printed in the 132 column paper. 1/3 is getting truncated. This happens only when i directly send the report to printer thru forms in Right to Left format. Urgent help needed.
Thanks in Advance,

Please acquaint yourself with the forum FAQ and etiquette if you have not already done so.
The use of CLIENT_XYZ API requires WEBUTIL to be configured. Have you done that?

Arabic Report in XML Publisher
Hi All,
I have a requirement to create a arabic report in XML publisher. SQL query in Report Builder will fetch the Payroll Data in XML mainly Numeric Data and then display this english numerid data in arabic.
Can some guide me to what settings that I have to do for this requirement?
Regards
MunishHi Munish
Did you configure arabic characher set with your XML publisher? Please do character mapping first then try to run report.
Or you can send me your template and XML data at [email protected]
Thanks

Does the database character set match the application character set?
What about PS (postscript)? Does it run properly?

I believe this is due to wrong setup of XML-Publisher. So, please verify the following:
1) Make sure NLS_LANG is set to "ARABIC_UNITED ARAB EMIRATES.UTF8"
2) You use the right encoding "WINDOWS-1256"
Please go through the following not to verify your XML settings:

English and Arabic reports output in PDF

We generate reports in pdf through our application. We have some English reports(left to right) and some Arabic reports(right to left) but directions settings in our application server is left to right so our Arabic reports are also coming left to right.
How to resolve this?

Edited by: tariqonnet on Apr 22, 2012 10:20 AMif you are using JSP reports that is means you are encountering the following bug: please change it to RDF and try again.
Bug 7671625 "PDF OUTPUT IS LTR WHEN RUNNING JSP REPORTS REGARDLESS OF NLS_LANG SETTINGS"
otherwise change this parameter in the windows regestry REPORTS_BIDI_ALGORITHM=UNICODE and restart the report server then try printing the report
or
1. Backup and edit the Reports Server configuration file $ORACLE_HOME/reports/conf/REPORTSERVERNAME.conf.
2. Add the following lines :
<environment id="AR">
<envVariable name="NLS_LANG" value="ARABIC_EGYPT.AR8ISO8859P6"/>
<envVariable name="TK_LOCALE" value="bidi"/>
<!--envVariable name="REPORTS_BIDI_ALGORITHM" value="UNICODE"/-->
<!--envVariable name="REPORTS_ARABIC_NUMERAL" value="ARABIC"/-->
</environment>
3. Modify the line for the engine tag to use the specified Environment ID. For example, change:
<engine id="rwEng" class="oracle.reports.engine.EngineImpl" initEngine="1" maxEngine="1"
minEngine="0" engLife="50" maxIdle="30" callbackTimeOut="90000">
TO:
<engine id="rwEng" class="oracle.reports.engine.EngineImpl" initEngine="1" maxEngine="1"
minEngine="0" engLife="50" maxIdle="30" callbackTimeOut="90000" defaultEnvId="AR">
4. Save and exit the Reports Server configuration file.
5. Restart the Reports Server for the changes to take effect. -

XML Publisher Arabic Report Display and missing header problem
Hi All
We are in apps. 11.5.9 with English and Arabic language support.Even though we have all our data and reports in English we are in need of an Arabic Invoice report.
Since Titles cannot be typed in oracle report builder we decided to build the report in Xml Publisher.
Every thing is done to run the report in xml publisher but we face two probles in the final xml output.
Problem1. Header and footer are not displaying in the report.
Problem2. Arabic characters are not displaying properly in the report.
Here what ever titles we gave in Arabic are displaying good.
If I save the xml file and load it in the templete and view output shows the correct arabic wordings.
But when during taking the output directly from apps. then the problem comes. The Arabic fonts are not dispaying correctly.
Any Idea about this.
If any one come across this issue please mail me at [email protected]
HabeebTry to load the arabic fonts into XML Publisher Admin. Check Tim's blog for more info (http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/2006/06/how_to_install_a_font_using_xm.html)

Oracle Reports Team Please Help..! Arabic Reports PDF not working in Solaris
Hi,
I am not able to Generate Arabic PDF reports (HTMLCSS is working fine with me.....)
O/s is Solaris........O/s supports Arabic....
NLS_LANG is set to "ARABIC_EGYPT.AR8ISO8859P6"
In place of arabic content its showing Junk characters..... In win2k Its working fine........ I have checked my uifont.ali I am giving my PDF section details..
[ PDF:Embed ]
helvetica = "helvetica.afm helvetica.pfa"
[ PDF:Subset ]
Arial = "Arial.ttf"
helvetica = "Arial.ttf"
"Andale Duospace WT J" = "Aduoj.ttf"
"Albany WT J"="AlbanWTJ.ttf"
"MS UI Gothic" = "msgothic.ttc"
And i have Included the Fonts folder entry in REPORTS_PATH variable entries...Is there any thing needs to be done.....??????
Why its not working in Solaris........PLEASE HELP ME OUT...........!!!!!
Thanks in Advance........
sharat ([email protected])Hi Sharat
I see that you have two entries for helvetica font in your uifont.ali. Be aware that order of precedence is alias->embed->subset. If the helvetica part is appearing junk, try and comment out the entry in embed section and let the subsetting happen.
On Solaris, ensure that the case of font file names match.

Hi,
I got a requirement to create an xml report in Arabic, i have created the layout in english and in Template registration i have given language as Arabic, territory as Kuwait. I am getting the letters in english only and numbers in '?' format, and the layout is from right side to left.
I need to print the whole report in Arabic, can any body please suggest me.
thanks
kumarFirst thing to check:
Are you using correct font and check if your server has Arabic supporting fonts installed? in other words, few fonts does not support arabic chars and if you are using those fonts, you'll face problems. now, if you are using correct fonts then other thing required is that your server also has those fonts. It is basically a font issue.

Displaying both Hindi and Arabic numerals in Oracle 10g PDF report
Hi….
Oracle experts told us to ask “In how many ways we can do it in oracle?” instead of asking “Can we do it in Oracle?” , I need ONE way to solve the following problem, it toke to much time and I don’t know if it can be solved !
The problem:
Can we print in - Oracle 10g reports - a PDF report with BOTH Hindi and Arabic numerals?
Well, at design time everything is fine, you can use right-to-left, left-to-right and the print preview is showing BOTH Hindi/Arabic numerals fine, but when I tried to produce it as a PDF, unfortunately its not, means its either all Hindi or all Arabic numerals !
I tried everything possible, environment variables: NLS_LANG, REPORTS_BIDI_ALGORITHM, and REPORTS_ARABIC_NUMERLS, setting Digit substitution to Context in windows regional settings, uifont.ali is modified properly according to metalink note, but nothing solved this issue!
I noticed something, when I used the DESTYPE=printer and DESNAME=PDF995 (one of the PDF printers) , it worked fine , means the problem could be in the generic PDF generator of the Oracle reports server,
But even with PDF995 you still need to feed the file name, which is not suitable for multi-user environment that need the report to be displayed via web browser.
Does anybody face this before?
