Asian characters displaying in my english language PDF.

This morning I opened a PDF and got a message that I needed to install a language pack. I installed the asian language pack as requested and when I opened my PDF there were asian characters displaying in my english language PDF. How do I fix this issue?

Very difficult to say without seeing the actual PDF. If it is not confidential, can you share it (or a similar sample PDF) with the forum: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1408375

Exporting other than english language pdf's into word

Hello,
I have pdf's that are in languages other than english e.g. german or sanskrit.
I have Acrobat X1 Pro which I used to export the pdf's into word. The word documents really look nice but most of the words come up as garbage and random symbols. Is there a way to fix this problem?

Acrobat XI does not support Sanskrit, but you can specify the document language as German.
When exporting the file, on the Windows "Save As" dialog, select the "Settings" button. Then slect the "Set Language" button and set the language in the next dialog.

Handling Non English language characters in PDF output

Hi All,
We have a requirement wherein we have to display an existing Smartform output in a PDF format.
We have used OTF to PDF conversion and displayed the PDF output in a container.
The issue is if certain characters are of non english language then the PDF is displaying these characters as special symbols.
The following string is getting dispalyed in the SmartForm as follows:
ОРЕНБУРГАВТОРЕМСЕРВИС_
The same string is displayed as follows in the PDF form :
Any pointers on how to handle such cases would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
regards

Before calling the smartform, use the FM 'SSF_GET_DEVICE_TYPE' and get the device type based on the language.
For eg:
CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_GET_DEVICE_TYPE'
    EXPORTING
      i_language = l_langu
    IMPORTING
      e_devtype = lwa_output_options-tdprinter.
Then you need to build the other control parameters like this:
Build control parameters.
lwa_control_parameters-getotf = c_charx.
lwa_control_parameters-device = 'PRINTER'.
lwa_control_parameters-preview = ''.
lwa_control_parameters-no_dialog = c_charx.
lwa_output_options-tddest = 'LOCL'.
Pass this lwa_output_options & lwa_control_parameters to output_options & control_parameters respectively in the Smartform FM.
This should ideally solve this issue.

How can I display East Asian characters in MediaSour

I am using Windows XP SP2 Chinese Traditional (Taiwan) edition, although I li've in the US.
My system setting is by default Chinese Traditional, and I have enabled East Asian language support for Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.
However, Creai've MediaSource has trouble displaying such East Asian characters, most of them look like random code.
At the same time Windows Media Player can display all the music info just fine.
I have a very large collection of Chinese, Japanese, and Korean music, so this function is very important to me.
Please help if possible.
I've read some previous posts about such issues, but most of them seem to involve the English version of Windows which is not in my case.
Thanks in advance.

I don't know why, but whatever I do, I can't seem to get the East Asian characters to work at all. I tried the control panels stuff, but when I use the "Get Info" thing before ripping a CD in MediaSource, I still get random characters.
Go to MediaSource's Tools->Settings->Audio CD/Rip setting page. In there, you can then set a language to be used for CDDB info. Just try and error with the different language settings (use CDDB, use OS, or use a specifc language) and one of them will be the correct one. You may need to set a different language setting for different CDs.

Hi Nitya,
Installing Asian Language Files for Adobe Reader
Asian Language Files are available for Adobe Reader. With any language version of Adobe Reader, you can display Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) files that contain text in Chinese Simplified, Chinese Traditional, Japanese, and Korean (CJK). You need the additional Asian fonts installed in order to view the PDF file on non-native systems even if the author of a PDF file embeds CJK fonts in the document. All you need to do is install the appropriate Asian Language files for use with Adobe Reader. Asian Language Support installers are available on the Adobe Acrobat 6 product CD, or you can install them on demand (when a file that requires the fonts is opened) using the Updates feature.
Reward points...
Thanks & Regards,

Asian-English Language problem on iTunes

I have two computers. Both of them are PCs with Windows XP Pro OS. However, one of them has Asian Language package installed. First, I transfered Asian songs through the Asian Language PC. The Asian language ID3 tags displayed correctly in the iTunes and iPod. After, I connected the iPod to my other PC. All the Asian language ID3 tags were messed up on both iTunes and iPod. Is there any way that I can prevent this problem happen again, if I switch the connections of my iPod between the two PCs?

Some update to detail the problem after further investigation.
Any idea is appreciated.
On EBP when we try to make a search for the available values we get "page cannot be found" error. This error occurs only if we login to EBP in a non-English language, i.e. either Turkish or Russian.
We don't get this error on all search helps but with the ones that have a non-latin character in the link. On the other hand the problem does not occur in all the links with non-latin characters. Some of the links with non-latin characters are working correctly.
Steps for the Reconstruction
1. Login to EBP in Turkish
2. Goto Process GOA/"Genel çerçeve sözleşmesini işle" under Contract Management
3. Create a GOA
4. On the initial screen of the GOA creation click on the "binnocular" at the line of under-over delivery tolerance/"Tsl.açığı/ fazlasıtoleransı"
5. Since our SRM server is on SSL Internet Explorer first asks for displaying the non-secure items. The actual problem is that the link contains non-latin characters. You can see the link by clicking on and not letting the binnocular.
6. However when you go down on the same page to the binnocular for the vendor/"Satıcı" search you get no errors. Because the non-latin characters are converted to ASCII codes.
I have also opened an OSS note on that.

Displaying Asian characters on Solaris platform?

I have a java application that can display Chinese, Japanese, Korean & Taiwanese (CJKT) on a Windows platform. It is able to display these characters on Windows because i have installed the CJKT locales and have modified the font.properties file to provide the necessary font mappings for the CJKT charsets. But, when i do the same modifications in Solaris (i.e. install the locales & modify the font.properties to provide mappings to various fonts that support the CJKT charsets) and run the application, i am not able to see the CJKT characters. The CJKT characters are displayed as boxes when the application is run in the en_US.ISO8859-1 locale.
Could someone please suggest what can be done to enable the display of CJKT characters on an ISO8859-1 locale?
It seems Solaris has locale-specific font installation. Is there any way a font from one loacale (say japanese) can be used in the other i.e. system locale (say korean) to display characters of the first locale (japanese)?

Thanks, but it does not answer the question.
I already have the required locales installed. It is just that i'm not able to display Asian characters on an English locale. I am using the Java logical font (serif), and the font.properties does map it to the various fonts that support the CJKT (Chinese, Japanese, Korean & Taiwanese) charsets, but still the application is unable to display the CJKT characters. It seems that java makes use of the X11 fonts and they happen to be installed in separate directories, one for each locale. This could be the reason why the other fonts are not available in the ISO8859-1 locale.
Is there any way we can map use the fonts of other locales by making use of the java logical font?

Overlapping characters displayed in spool for dunning in thai language

Hi Experts,
Our requirement is to create a dunning form for Thailand(displayed in thai language).
We have created a thai oriented printer(Thl1).We have also created a smart style and the font is helvetica(in order to display thai characters).
We have a problem when the spool is generated.The characters in the spool(both english and thai) appear overlapped.
What can be the reason for this?
My hunch is that since we are using helvetica font the spool is not generated properly.(ie spool cannot take helvetica font)
Since dunning is a sap standard program we cannot directly convert to otf format instead of generating a spool.
This problem has been bugging us for a long time.
Can any of the sap mates please suggest a solution for this?

New iTunes update (10.6) not displaying asian characters correctly.

Just updated my iTunes to 10.6 and the new version is not displaying the asian characters in the artist or song titles. They are appearing in the album. Have restarted my computer multiple times.

Same issue going on for me. Like daskaea said, it doesn't show up in the album grid, but shows up fine everywhere else. I personally am encountering this issue for Chinese, Japanese, and Korean scripts.
Attempts to clear the name and re-enter it manually also do not work.
Anyone have any ideas?
