Contents contains characters which cannot be encoded

hi,
on export from indesign cs5 to xml i get the above error message.
the piece of text i want to export contains the chinese font: PMingLiu_ExtB for two characters;
deleting the characters solves this (but that is no option obviously.
could anyone help me with this?

Hi Martin,
I was not able to open your file right now. I tried CS4 and CS5, perhaps it's 5.5?
Anyway: Open the XML Structure pane in InDesign and you will probably find that it's not empty. If there are characters that are part of tagged contents, that can not be encoded into XML (such as "indent to here"), you get this warning.
I just ran into this as well, and I find it very annoying.
Best regards,
Andreas

How to read a file which content hindi characters.....

I m reading a text file which content hindi characters.... but m nt getting the right result. It shows garbage instead of hindi characters.
plz somebody help me....:(

You posted this in the XML forum. Is this an XML file you are asking about?
And we need definitions for some of the terms you used in your original post. You said "it shows garbage". We need to know:
1. What is the "it" there?
2. How does it "show" something?
3. What does the "garbage" look like.
In future you will find you get better answers if you write better questions.

The file contains file info data which cannot be read and has been ignored

We have been sending images out to contractors, and sometimes when they come back the files are having this error:
the file contains file info data which cannot be read and has been ignored
When I then try to Photoshop Script the file info it throws errors. Does anyone know what causes this error to happen?
Thank you

ok, Thanks!, BUT here's the bigger issue:
We use a lot of Photoshop Scripting, and the file info is how we direct all of our workflows. when a file comes back with "the file contains file info data which cannot be read and has been ignored" error, the scripts are unable to read/write to any of the file info ever again. So not only did we lose all the info already in the file, but we can't use the file at all after this.
Additonally, we tried copying and pasting to new blank documents, but realized we needed all the paths, channels, and sampler points too.
Is there anything anyone can think of to get around this probelm? A setting, or a program to fix the metadata, etc?
Thanks!!!

How to pick columns which don't contain characters

Hi Experts,
I am working with EBS 11I and database 9i. I have bleow requirement.
TABLE A:
col1 col2
1 wi-p02
2 qss-p009
3 wi-pwb
Requirement: I want to pick columns which don't contain 'characters after 'p' in col2.
my output should be first two records.
Could somebody help me how to get this.
Thanks

Try
SELECT *
FROM my_tab
WHERE DECODE (LENGTH (TRANSLATE (SUBSTR (col2, INSTR (col2, '-p') + 2),
                                  '_0123456789',
               NULL, 1,
               0
              ) = 0The substring looks for the -p string and then gets the rest of the characters after -p.
The translate looks for non-numerics in those characters.
Hope this helps

How to fit frame to content when content contains anchored text box?

Hi there
I am creating a series of inline text frames within a text frame. Each of these inline frames contains text which includes an anchored text frame. If I tell my inline frames to fit to content they seem to ignore the anchored frames contained therein. Is there any way I can get them to consider the anchored frames they contain when they fit to content?
I tried checking the geometric bounds of my anchored frame before and after its parent frame has fitted to content. Even when there has been no change in position the bounds after fitting to content seem to give numbers way off. I thought I might be able to reset the geometric bounds of the containing frame manually if the anchored frame therein had moved with the fit frame to content.
Here is a snippet of my code:
var anchoredBounds = anchoredFrame.geometricBounds;
mainFrame.fit(FitOptions.FRAME_TO_CONTENT);
mainFrame.texts.item(0).recompose;
var newAnchoredBounds = anchoredFrame.geometricBounds;
alert(anchoredBounds[0] + "; " + newAnchoredBounds[0]);
So “mainFrame” is the text frame containing text and the anchored frame, “anchoredFrame”. “anchoredBounds[0]” seems to correlate with the top edge of the frame when I check it manually after the script has finished (when it hasn’t move with the fit to content). “newAnchorBounds[0]”, however, always gives numbers that are way off every time. Any ideas why this would be the case?
And most importantly, can anyone suggest how I can get my “mainFrame” to consider the “anchoredFrame” contained in it when it fits to content?
I’m using CS4 on a PC. Let me know if it would help to post more code, or if I haven’t explained myself clearly enough.

Is there any way I can get them to consider the anchored frames they contain when they fit to content?
@Graham – as long as ALL the anchored text frames are "inline" text frames,
mainFrame.fit(FitOptions.FRAME_TO_CONTENT);
should work as expected or at least sort of *.
Without calculating anything at all.
Just tested in InDesign CS5.5 (v7.5.3).
Could it be that CS4 will fail on that?
Of course, you can only rely on this, if the main text frame contains any "real" text at all. Not only the special characters representations of the "inline" text frames. In that case the fit() method will do nothing at all.
* it's debatable, if the fit() method yields desirable output.
It depends on your expectations.
See the following examples:
1. Case 1:
Text frame before fitting:
2. Case 1:
After fitting with the UI command, context menu: "fit frame to contents"
(note the gap between the last baseline of the text and the text frame; note also the new width)
Is that the result you would expect? I guess not.
3. Case 1:
After fitting programmatically with myTextframe.fit(FitOptions.FRAME_TO_CONTENT);
4. Case 2:
Before fitting
same text frame as in #1, but different height
5. Case 2:
After fitting with the UI command, context menu: "fit frame to contents"
A different width than in #2 and a gap at the bottom of the text frame!
Not the desired result, I'd say…
6. Case 2:
After fitting programmatically with myTextframe.fit(FitOptions.FRAME_TO_CONTENT);
Same result as in #3
So with scripting we could, at least, get consistent results.
Of course, you could get the same results in the UI, if you double-click on the bottom center control point…
Maybe it helps, if you are showing us some screen grabs:
1. Your starting point
2. The desired result

How can I rid my iPhone of a huge library of photos which cannot be erased? they are listed under PhotoLibrary.

How can I rid my iPhone of a huge library of photos which cannot be erased? they are listed under PhotoLibrary.

If you turned on Photo Stream and don't want these pictures on your phone, just turn it off. As mention by wjosten, if you want to remove photos from Photo Library, or any of the albums under Photo Library, you have to deselect them on the Photos tab of your sync settings and sync your phone to remove them. Also, although the photos int Photo Library may appear to be duplicates of the photos in the albums, they aren't. The actual photos are all in Photo Library; the albums only contain links to the photos. Finally, you can only delete albums created on your phone, not ones synced from your computer. And they can only be deleted after they are empty.

Access Connections 5.21 corrupt - The contents of this file cannot be unpacked..

Access Connections 5.21 as posted on the ww-307.ibm.com web site is bad... if you try to install you'll get an error dialog: "The contents of this file cannot be unpacked. The executable you are attempting to run has been corrupted. Please obtain another copy of the file, verify its integrity, and try again.".
I think I see why... the files are being truncated at about 16 megabyates, perhaps by the web server?
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-4ZLNJB is the page for the Windows XP version and it points to file 7xcx23ww.exe, which is supposed to be about 26 megabytes. But when you download the file, it gets truncated to about 16 megabytes.
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-67283 is the page for the Windows Vista version and it points to file 7xcv23ww.exe which is suposed to be about 35 megabytes. But when you download the file, it also gets truncated to about 16 megabytes.
The complete files are on ftp.software.ibm.com. Connect with your favorite ftp client, log in as anonymous with your email address as the password... then cd /pc/pccbbs/mobiles, type binary (to ensure binary transfer) and hash (to get progress hash marks) and you can use the get command (i.e. get 7xcx23ww.exe or get 7xcv23ww.exe) to fetch the file you need.
The Windows XP version appears to extract OK now (haven't installed it yet though), and the Vista version appears to be the right length.
Good luck,
Rob

Hi Bill,
Hmmm. I just tried it again couple of times, and still get truncated file 7xcx23ww.exe via http download.
I could imagine an issue with my browser (Firefox) on Windows, Netgear access point or cable modem ISP and I would be reluctant to point finger at the web server. But as I verified yesterday, 2nd download attempt with wget and linux in a shell account (accessed via ssh on box hosted far away by an entirely different ISP) also gets the truncated file.
Hope this is helping someone - if I'm only one getting the corrupt files I'll delete the post... is anyone else seeing this?
tx,
Rob
ps: good news - Access Connections 5.21 seems much more stable than 5.20

Content container not rendering properly in some browsers

Hi Guys,
I am near completion on a the first site i have coded for a while. When i was coding i checked the site on mac firefox, chrome, safari. Also on windows firefox chrome safari and all appeared fine. When i used another windows machine in ie and firefox(up to date version) the main content container is half size this problem also occurs on the iphone too.
im really stumped and cant find the issue i have gone through the css and checked the container sizes with padding etc and nothing seems to be breaking out unless im missing it. Ive thought about size issue but im using a 27" screen at high res and the other machine i tested was a large high res. Works fine on my windows 17" screen. Does anyone else see the issue on the browser that i am explaining?
the testing domain is here

Looks fine to me in FF 7.0.1. I suspect what you have experienced is different screen resolution settings between the various test computers you used. For example, my monitor is set at 1280x768. Content will appear smaller if the setting is 1280x1024. And screen settings are something you cannot control. I think the best methods to attempt a uniform look from monitor to monitor are to use percentages or ems when specifying size, but I'm sure Murray, Nancy, SnakeEyez, Paula, Hans, Gramps, and others may have better counsel to offer.

That means you have a case-sensitive startup volume.
You should be able to use either "Carbon Copy Cloner" or "SuperDuper" (free for this purpose) to copy your case-sensitive volume to an empty case-insensitive one. Make at least two such copies on different drives. One is not enough to be safe.
Note: If there are any name conflicts — that is, files in the same folder with names that differ only in case, such as "File" and "file" — then you will either get an error or one of the files won't be copied. You must ensure either that no such conflicts exist, or that the consequences are not important. How you do that is up to you. Unless you went out of your way to create such conflicts, they probably don't exist.
Then erase the source volume in Disk Utility as case-insensitive. This action will wipe all data from the volume.
Restore from one of your backups using the same application you used to create it, or use the "Restore" feature of Disk Utility, which will be faster. Search its built-in help for the term "duplicate" if you need instructions.

Cleaning data containing characters &

Hi
One of the Columns in the table contained characters like &amp which is not recognised by XMLpublisher as such user is not getting an output. How can I identify the records containing such characters so that it could be fixed manually.
Thanks in advance

create table publication
(Publication_id number
,Title varchar2(100)
,Year varchar2(5));
insert into publication values
(100, 'Research on Flu & Vacine', 2008)
insert into publication values
(200, 'Human < Computer &amp Interaction', 2010)

Hi, Anna,
If you're not using substitution variables elsewhere in the same statement, it's easiest to turn off that feature using SET DEFINE OFF; then SQL*Plus will treat & as a normal character.
SET DEFINE OFF
insert into publication (id, title, year) values
(100, 'Research on Flu & Vacine', 2008)
insert into publication (id, title, year) values
(200, 'Human < Computer &amp Interaction', 2010)
-- If you need to use substitution variables later, turn the feature on again:
SET DEFINE ONOther options (in order of likelihood) include:
(1) Escape the special character
(2) Change the character that marks substitution variables (e.g. "SET DEFINE ~")
(3) Use CHR (38) instead of '&'

Is there a way to differentiate string containing characters vs. numbers?

Hello, I am creating an application to read data from a serial port device. The problem is that the device, on startup, outputs a block of text containing characters describing the device. Shortly after, it outputs a command prompt "Command:" It is at this point that I want my VI to input the command to begin taking measurements.
I was looking at the VISA Wait on Event and it looks like that could be used to wait for the device to output a "Serial Character" but there is no differentiation between letters and numbers that I can tell.
If the device is outputting numbers in the read string, of course, I do not need to input the command to begin taking measurements again, that will only probably confuse the device. In that case, I would like my VI to continue taking measurements with VISA Read.
The reason for this is that when I run the application, the device may have already been turned on. Sending that command to the device using VISA Write is unnecessary at that point.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

That makes it alot easier. In that case this will do the trick. You'll notice that the bottom case does not match even though it has valid vaules inside of it. The only thing that will match is if the entire string is of the form XX.XXXX. By the way, since we are only matching numbers now, you can remove the "ignore case" boolean as it no longer matters.
