Cannot display Chinese font in PDF Report

I am using Oracle Report Server 11g currently. I have met a problem that the chinese font cannot be displayed in the PDF report which is generated by oracle report. Can anyone help ?

Hi...
You can achieve this in XML report.
As per metalink Note id ID 842856.1,
1. Copy the following font files from $FND_TOP/resource to the /lib/fonts directory (under OA_JRE_TOP).
ALBANYWT.ttf - "single-byte" characters only
ALBANWTJ.ttf - Unicode font with Japanese Han Ideographs
ALBANWTK.ttf - Unicode font with Korean Han Ideographs
ALBANWTS.ttf - Unicode font with Simplified Chinese Han Ideographs
ALBANWTT.ttf - Unicode font with Traditional Chinese Han Ideographs
2. Restart the Apache.
Regard,
Sathiya.

Cannot Extract Embedded Font in PDF Report Generated Using Crystal Reports XI

The issue is that sometimes the PDF reports generated by Crystal Report XI are not showing the fonts properly. Arial font is used in the Crystal report template(.rpt file) for field label and data elements. When the report is opened in Adobe Reader, it displays the message - "Cannot extract the embedded font 'AAAAAA+ArialBold'. some characters may not display or print correctly." Other PDF Readers like Foxit show blank spaces instead. I tried to change the font to Courier New, Times New Roman etc but still getting the same message.
The issue is consistent when the application is deployed in Windows server. When deployed in Unix server the issue happens very occasionally. The font files are available and installed in the UNIX box.
Please tell me why this error message is shown and also tell me how to get it fixed.

Hi Scot
Just replied to your email re. conf call.
In the meantime.
1st question.
    Some of our developers are creating the reports under crystal 2008, while some are 2011.
    Could this be a problem, when they are run by the SDK?
    Should we upgrade all our developers to crystal 2011?
The version of CR a report is created in should not matter at all. I am 100% certain this is not the issue.
2nd question
    When the report is run, to create the pdf... why would it actually embed the font on the pdf?
    if they weren't embedded.. wouldn't it just pull up the proper font, if the user's pc had that font on their
    pc?
    if it does the common fonts aren't embedded, we would just have to worry about the things like
    barcode 3 of 9
I can not answer this as that essentially is the way the product is designed. It may look like a limitation, but there are no work-arounds and I would not consider this to be a bug. Perhaps an enhancement, but a pretty faint hope there. And even if, enhancements take very, very low priority and take long, long time before implementation.
3rd question
    Would the fonts, just need to be installed on the server?   we've seen some indication, that they
    also need to be in a java sub-directory
The fonts must be on the server as that is where the report engine does it's work, then the report is streamed to the user's browser. E.g.; there is no work done on the browser. Also, the process must have rights to access the fonts.
One last point. You mention deployment to Linux. Linux is not supported. Please see: SAP Crystal Reports, Developer Version for Microsoft Visual Studio - Supported Platforms
I suspect this is more an issue with CR not working with the framework for Linux.

Mapbuilder cannot display chinese character properly

I downloaded the latest mapviewer package.I found the mapbuilder cannot display chinese charater properly.neither the charater readed from database,nor the charater I typed. Every chinese character is substitude by a blank square.Anyone have good suggestion?

Hi,
this early preview has not been tested in other
languages than English. We are aware of this problem
with Chinese characters, and it may be related with
font, but
needs more investigation. Which Windows version are
you using?
To start the program setting the language to English
you can try:
java -jar -Duser.language=en -Duser.region=US ...
Thanks.
JoaoI tried . but no helpful. an My os is windows xp

Embedding traditional chinese fonts in pdf

Hi,
I am trying to embed traditional chinese fonts in the mdf template.
I created a soft font catridge using Angsana font and with symbolsets big5 and GB.
I have also made the registry changes as mentioned in the below specified article:
http://www.adobe.com/support/products/enterprise/knowledgecenter/c4230.pdf
But when i test the mdf it shows junk chracters instead of chinese...
Can any one help me out...?
Thanks in advance
Bhagya.

Thanks Tom. Yeah, I understand that PDFs are not designed to work like word-processing files, etc., and the need to have the Chinese text copy over well is really just to prove that the document is searchable (i.e. if it can copy a short section of text Ok, then it means the characters are recognized by the PDF reader and I can search the document, which is my main goal.)
The problem I mentioned with Preview, etc., is actually a new one; one that has become a big problem for me only in the last few weeks. Before, I never had this issue. I'm not sure what changed, but I was suspecting MacKeeper and their "language cluster" cleaning feature, where it "helps" you by removing unused fonts. Though, I can't quite confirm that this has played a role. I just completely reinstalled the OS thinking that this would fix the issue by installing all the original fonts again, if MacKeeper did indeed remove the fonts these PDF programs use when editing or saving PDF files. However.....unfortunately....the problem is still here.
So, that developer I mentioned in the first thread who said this is an OS X issue may indeed be correct.
And just to be clear, I have confirmed that the PDF's I working with do have the fonts embedded already. It is only when I alter them and then save or export from Preview, Skim, Nomad, etc., that the character information gets stripped out and I'm left with a document that one can read but cannot search. I can't even OCR it because this problem also affects my OCR software, as if it can't get access to the fonts needed to embed in the recognized PDF.
Any other thoughts? I'd appreciate any you have.

Cannot display Chinese Character in ver 10.1.3

Hello,
I would like to ask one more question, when i run my program, it contain two jsp pages,
the first one is to ask the user to input some chinese character, then the second one is to display the input data in the second page. I found out that the second one cannot display the input chinese character, but other chinese character in the second one can be display.
Some of my code in the second one are as follow:
String firstName = request.getParameter("firstName");
中文 <%=firstName%>
The result are displayed are displayed as follow:
中文 ?T???\!
It seems to me that the text can display but the variable cannot display, does any one know the reason?
One of the replies from the JDeveloper forum are as follow:
I seem to recall there was a bug in the 10.1.3 OC4J with passing parameters on the URL in other languages. You might want to ask on the OC4J forum:

Cannot display japanese font/character in WTK22

Hi guys,
I followed this http://www.devarticles.com/c/a/Java/J2ME_and_Unicode/ instructions but I stil cannot display the japanese character on the screen both with eclipe and wtk22.
What seems to be missing with my application? Do I have to install japanese font - if yes please provide steps on how to install or add this property...I've tried to add fonts on the FONTS system of windows but it seems that nothing happens...
Thanks in advance...
psyeu

have you done this steps...
...Now with the new fonts installed go to home directory of the Sun Wireless ToolKit, and go into
the directory wtkdevices. Now copy DefaultColorPhone and paste in the same directory
renamed to UnicodePhone. Also, rename the properties file under the UnicodePhone
directory to UnicodePhone.properties. Next, using any editor open the
UnicdoePhone.properties file and find the font section. It should look similar to the...page 2 of the tutorial !

ITunes cannot display Chinese

I have a number of Chinese songs on my iPod that loaded from a Windows pc. Now, I am using MBA with iTunes and all song titles become garbage. I am using English version Leopard 10.5.2 and iTunes. Can someone advise how to configure it to display Chinese correctly. Thanks!

You probably need to fix the encoding of the ID3 tags. See if this note helps:

Adobe reader cannot extract embedded font after pdf sent via outlook

We have some pdf files that open fine in Adobe Reader 9.1.3. Once we send them via e-mail (we use Outlook 2003), they will not open properly with the error message: "Cannot extract the embedded font 'TWDWSP+TradeGothic-Light. Some characters may not display or print correctly." When we click OK, another error message appears: "An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person who created the PDF document to correct the problem." If the files are sent in a ZIP archive, they open correctly, but not if sent individually as PDFs. Can someone help?

It's one of the reasons that it's not recommended to send a PDF via email without Zipping it first. Either the senders or receivers email client may use encoding to make the ransfer faster which can wreck PDF's.
Best bet is to Zip (as you've seen) the file first or post it to a web space and email the link.

Display Thai Fonts In Pdf

Anyone have any experience trying to print Thai characters? I am creating PDF files from Oracle 6i Reports and when attempting to view this PDF file from Reader v4.0 and v5.0, the Thai characters look like junk. When viewing with v3.0, there is absolutely no problem. The generated report (.PDF) contains the Thai data and it uses CordiaUPC font. From the adobe forum i read that Thai is not a double byte font like Chinese, Japanese or Korean,Adobe supports the CJK Fonts.Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks In advance.
Regs,
K.Krishna Kumar

Hi Krishna
The fact that the PDF looked good with Acrobat 3 and not with 4 and 5 is expected. Acrobat 4+ does not support TTF subsets unless you embed the fonts. Arial font may have Baltic, Turkish etc., flavour inside one font. This used to be supported in Acrobat 3 but not any more.
I suggest you to upgrade to Reports 9i and use its advanced PDF features such as Type1 Font Embedding, Type3 Font Subsetting.
