Cannot see folder- in non english characters.

I have set up PySDM to mount one of my harddrives on boot. The problem is that I cannot see a folder (ls and nautilus ) there , which is non -english characters (russian). Ubuntu was able to see it properly. I verified it was there by booting back to Windows.

*vitali* wrote:Ok what should it be?
UTF-8 maybe (or utf8 I'm never sure which one to use).
Try mounting it manually and check for errors and if it works as you want.

My Firefox cannot display non-English characters, even though I have tried every language encoding I have!

I am a big fan of Japanese songs and websites, so I was very disappointed when I saw that Firefox could not handle any non-English characters. I have tried every encoding I can, but none work and I just see boxes with numbers and letters inside. I have only just got this older laptop for my birthday - my old laptop which ran Windows Vista and had Firefox 4 had no trouble at all. Please help me!

hello muoshui, please enter '''about:config''' into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''network.http.accept-encoding''' - right-click and reset that entry to the default value.
if this does not resolve the issue already, please also go through the steps offered at [[Websites look wrong or appear differently than they should]].

Non english characters in DN cannot be retrieved

We are using Netscape directory server 4, protocal V3. We have a problem related to non-english characters appearing in RDN.
We publish to Ldap entries using the values from database. For example, we have pubulished an entry to Ldap, based on DB values, the entry should have a DN like: ou=Liege BELGIUM ... LGG1a, <other components of DN>. However, when we call netscape search API (search against uid attribute which does not have non-english characters), the search return the entry, but when further call getDN() method on the returned Ldap Entry, it only returns Li, instead of the complete DN value.
It seems the entry is corrupted in Ldap. I wanted to delete the corrupted entry and re create new one to test. I tried many ways, but none of them worked, I think it is because DN is corrupted, there is no key value to identify the Ldap entry for any operation(modify, delete).
You help and insights are much appreciated.
Thanks.

LDAP uses the UTF8 encoding. You must store data in the directory using the UTF8 encoding. This includes DN values. This also means that if you want to be able to view the values in your native character set and font, you must use an application that can convert the UTF8 LDAP data back to the native character encoding. The directory console by default should work for LATIN-1 (ISO 8859) languages if the LOCALE is set correctly.

Problem with the Non-English Characters

Hello,
I have been using Adobe Illustrator but I have a huge problem with the non-english characters with Standart Fonts. With the Professional font's I have no problem with them. But when I'm using any standart font in font folio library I cannot type any "ğ-İ-ş". I can add those letters in fontlab with the glyphs (scedilla, idotaccent, gbreve). Most of the fonts have those letters already prepeared so I dont even have to redraw. But I can't add those glyph to every single font because I dont have that kind of time and patience. Is there any better solution for this? Or is there any font folio pack that all fonts are PRO.
I'm looking forward for your answers
Thanks.

Joel wrote: I'm told that this is the exact difference between Adobe's Standard and Pro fonts — the Pro fonts have additional glyphs, including those necessary for extended Latin script.
Exactly. The Pro fonts have at a minimum the Adobe Western 3 character set, which is essentially western European + Adobe CE.
> Standard fonts just have the basic English character set, with maybe a bit of help for Spanish and French.
A lot more than that!
> You're doing Turkish, right? Adobe's coverage for Turkish in its fonts is not great - some of the Pro fonts have Turkish coverage, many do not.
This is false. Every single Adobe Pro font supports Turkish.
To be clear:
All Adobe Standard fonts support the following languages: Afrikaans, Basque, Breton, Catalan, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, Gaelic, German, Icelandic, Indonesian, Irish, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Sami, Spanish, Swahili and Swedish.
Adobe Pro fonts support those languages, plus AT LEAST: Croatian, Czech, Estonian, Hungarian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Polish, Romanian, Serbian (Latin), Slovak, Slovenian and Turkish. Some Pro fonts have more language support than this, such as Greek and/or Cyrillic, and additional extended Latin.

Non English characters in BIP email

Hi, my report contains Japanese characters, when I view the output in HTML format. It is displayed properly. But when I click on send button , enter email parameters like to, cc, bcc, subject , etc and send it, in the mail I receive, the japanese characters are not getting displayed properly. The same problem occurs for spanish and portugese texts-in general to all non english characters. I am using Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher Release 10.1.3.4. If someone has faced a similar issue, kindly help. Thanks in advance

Suggestions
1) Try with NLS_LANG as
SWEDISH_SWEDEN.WE8DEC
2) Make a paramform and enter via paramform (unencoded)
(This is just for testing purpose)
3) Change machine locale to swedish and try
4) Which reports version is this ?

Non-English characters not displaying correctly - Serious Issue

My corporate email is on a Lotus Domino server with Lotus Traveler installed.
I have set my PlayBook (with OS 2) up to syncronize with the corporate email trough Active Sync (see http://alturl.com/qh3nn), which works perfectly.
I have however noticed that in some emails special non-english characters are displayed correctly but in some emails special non-english characters are displayed as a black diamond with a question mark inside.
This is of course a serious issue as most non English speaking countries use some special characters.
When trying to understand this problem how can I analyse the emails and see what character set is being used?
And of course better; has someone solved this?

I am having the same problem. Is there any update available?

Support issue for non-English characters (in html forms)

Hi group!
I just want to post an issue here and see if anyone else has the same problem. First off, Im running Windows XP MCE but the French version (not the english version). This may help find out where the problem really is.
Second, I know a bit of html and such, and I'm referring to HTML Character entities for this thread, there's a quite complete list here for reference: http://www.faqs.org/docs/htmltut/characterentitiesfamsupp69.html
I noticed that some, not all, non-English characters written in a textarea (which is, basically, a multi-lined input box) doesnt pass well or at all to the server when sending the form from Safari. Most of the time, the content of the text area is reduced to the beginning and ends where the first accentued character is met.
The most used French accents (é, à) are usually well interpreted (but may, once in a while, produce that bug too) by safari, but ô and î doesnt do that well.
Oddly, this bug doesnt happen all the time and doesnt "crash" in the same manner everytime.
So I started a thread just to see if there's anyone else having issues with any non-english characters mostly in forms. Probably flash/shockwave does work, but I'm not sure- I have not tested yet.
Acer Aspire 5044 Windows XP Turion 1.8GHz, 1Gb SDRam, ATI 200M xpress

Yes, it is a known issue. I also noticed that it sometimes works, but most of the time it does not. It will hopefully be solved in the future. According to http://www.apple.com/safari/download/ changes that will come include:
# Support for International users
# International text input methods
# Advanced text (contextual forms, international scripts)

Non-english characters in sqlplus

Friends,
9.0.1,10.2.0.1
CAn the non-english characters be displayed in sqlplus prompt?
I have to print the data with some hindi charcaters like name from the report generated via proc.
What is teh workaround for this?
Thanks

Hi,
I have RH Linux 7.3.
Here is my situation.
I have some tables that have some columns.In these columns i need to store data in hindi.
The database character set(nls_characterset) is US7ASCII.
The datatypes of the columns is varchar2 type.
The tables are accessed through Pro*c and the proc code generates the report.
The data in these reports needs to be printed out and the corresponding data has to be in hindi.
So i have to do two things
1) On query the tables, the user should see hindi data along with english data.
2) The printed report should also contain hindi data.
Questions:
1) If i change the charcater set by the command:
alter database character set AL32UTF8;
and OS locale to UTF-8
Would these chnages solve the purpose?
2) Or do i need to recreate the database with AL32UTF8 and exp/imp all the data?
3)Any other advice/option?
Thanks

Non-English characters in URL for rwservlet

I'm having a problem when I try to use non-english characters in a URL request to generate a report.
This works fine:
http://...rwservlet?report=r1.jsp&m1=Fred
But if I try FrÃ©d (e with accent graph) the report does not return any data even though the SQL by itself would find data.
I tried UTF-8 encoding
http://...rwservlet?report=r1.jsp&m1=Fr%C3%A9d
8859-1 encoding
http://...rwservlet?report=r1.jsp&m1=Fr%E9d
Or just spell it out (not sure what that gets encode as):
http://...rwservlet?report=r1.jsp&m1=FrÃ©d
But noting works. Any ideas?
Thanks, Andreas

Wrong sorting of non-English characters (iTunes 11.2)

Since version 11.2 of iTunes, there is a problem with sorting of names with non-English characters (such as ž, š, č, ř or other in Czech). It seems that iTunes completely omits these characters when sorting. As an example, I have Čajkovskij (which is the Czech spelling of Tchaikovsky) among artists in my library and it is currently sorted between Adele and Alan Parsons Project, i.e. it seems that the character Č has been completely omitted while sorting and thus the artist is sorted as Ajkovskij.
All my ID3 tags are of version 2.3 and in Unicode, thus this should not be any encoding problem. I even tried to change the ID3 tags to version 2.4, i.e. UTF-8, and it did not help.
I think that there must be many more people experiencing this problem. Not everyone has only English or ASCII names in the library and I am surprised that I could not find anything on this bug anywhere on the net yet.
Thanks for any help on this.

Looks like a bug in the latest build. See this recent thread.
You could report the problem via iTunes Feedback or sign up for a free Apple Developer Connection account and make use of Apple Bug Reporter.

Missing/corrupted non-english characters in Preview

I know there have been posts on this recently, but this is such a significant problem that I thought it worth keeping live.
Preview does not display non-english characters in PDFs properly. Things like greek characters are either displayed as the english equivalent or are missing or something else more bizzare. This happens on my MBP and my partners MB, both running Leopard. Acrobat, Word etc have no problems. I had no issues with Tiger
I would like to report this directly to Apple but I couldn't find how...

External Tables & Non English Characters

Hi
I am new to external tables, i wanted to know what i need to do to upload the data which is of non-English characters,
Example
i need to upload the data where the single file will have data for more than one non-english characters.
1. English
2. Chinese
3. Korean
let me know if any other alternative exists for the same.
Regards
Yram

Hi,
a good reference for External Tables is the manual: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14215/part_et.htm
If they are in one file, you can upload them all at once. Important will be how the data is stored in the file (UTF-8, UTF-16). This information you should set in the external table by using the CHARACTERSET clause, see the manual.
Your database also needs to support these characters!

Non-English Characters (Encoding)

Using the XMP Toolkit I'm having problems reading and writing non-English characters. For example: keywords read which should be "casa campesina, cultivos agrí colas, zona cafetera, café, plátano" read as "casa campesina, cultivos agrÃcolas, zona cafetera, cafÃ©, plÃ¡tano". I have the same problem with other languages such as Norwegian.
Does anyone else have this type of problem? Or perhaps a suggestion as to what I might be doing to cause such a problem?
Best regards,
Glenn Rogers
Developer of DBGallery: Photo DATAbase System

Hi Glen,
if you write non ASCII characters using our toolkit, you have to make sure to encode your string in UTF8.
If you see this while reading, the data in the file might not be valid UTF8. If it's local encoding (for example mac local encoding) our library will try to convert it based on the OS you are running it on. So it you got mac local encoding in the EXIF of the file and you are using the toolkit on windows, this might cause the wrong characters you are seeing.
In order to avoid this please always use UTF8 encoded strings.
Regards,
Samy

Flex, xml, and non-English characters

Hello! I have a Flex web app with AdvancedDataGrid. And I use httpService component to load some data to grid. The .xml file contains non-english characters in attributes (russian in my case) like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
   <Autoparts>
    <autopart DESCRIPTION="Барабан">
</Autoparts>
And when i run app, AdvancedDataGrid display it like "ÑÐŸÐ". How can i fix it? I try to change encoding="utf-8" with some another charsets, bun unsuccesfully. Thank you.

Try changing the xml structure by using CDATA instead of having the russian part as an attribute and see if that makes any difference.
What I meant is use something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
   <Autoparts>
    <autopart>
       <description><![CDATA[Барабан]]></description>
</autopart>
</Autoparts>
instead of the current xml.

Cannot see folder- in non english characters.
