Crystal XI Chinese Character Problem

Hello,
I have a report that is out a notes section that may, or may not, contain Chinese characters. This report is loaded from SQL, and is displayed as an RTF field.
When I view the report using Cyrstal Reports the Chinese characters appear correctly. But when I export out the report to PDF using the built in exporting tool, some of the letters appear as boxes (the majority of them appear just fine, its just certain ones).
On the other hand if I print out the report using CutePDF, everything appears fine.
Any thoughts on what could be causing this?
Thanks,

On the other hand if I print out the report using CutePDF, everything appears fine.
Check the tool you are using, use the one that works, not a CR issue.

Hi,
I have no problem with getting the chinese character in my localPC with the following code.
<%@page pageEncoding="UTF-8" contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" %>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
But when i upload it to linux server and access it in my local PC, i found the same problem occured. So, i added
request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
As i need to pass this value to another page, so i encode it by using URLEncode like below before go to the other page :-
artistName = java.net.URLEncoder.encode(artistName,"UTF-8");
Anyone can help me on this?

Chinese Character Problem in Essbase Integration Service & Oracle9i

I installed oracle9i on windows2000,which character set is SIMPLIFIED CHINESE_CHINA.zhs16cgb231280. And I installed Essbase Integration Service 6.5.4 on HP-UNIX server. I designed an OLAP Model in Integration Services Console and I defined some dimensions name using chinese characters. When I saved the model, the chinese characters I inputed is saved as some question marks(?) in the tables in oracle 9i. After I loaded the dimension data which include the chinese charaters, the dimension data which is chinese characters also displayed question marks in the EIS console. I have added the variable NLS_LANG="SIMPLIFIED CHINESE_CHINA.zhs16cgb231280" in the .profile, but it did not work either. How can I solve this problem? Can I do any configuration on EIS files to solve this problem? Would you please help me? Thank you very much!

Chinese character problem in clob filed,repost,pls Help!

Hi all,
We are developing a web-based information system,on Oracle 9i database Release 2 on a AIX platform,the Character set is ZHS16GBK(UTF-8).
And OC4J is the web server we are planning to use,but installed on another AIX machine,the web page retriving data from a table with clob field,it is not correctly work,only English text can be displayed correctly,Chinese text is shown as '??????????????',other fields with Chinese is correct.
But when we deployed the project from JDev to oc4j on a windows platform,everything is OK!
I tried to set enviroment variable on NLS_LANG=SIMPLIFIED CHINESE_CHINA.ZHS16GBK,LANG=zh_CN,but it still doesn't work.
Please advise!

Preview Chinese Character Problem

Hi expert,
I face a problem in smartforms, the problem is the Chinese char that I used it not show properly..
It looks like the Char all is combine together but when I print it out, all is fine.

If you have taken care of the two settings at windows and sap as shown below you should not face any problem.
Windows->Settings>Control Panel>Regional and Language Option>Language Tick both the checkboxes over there.
SAP->Customizing of local layout[nothing but last button of the toolbar at sap screen->Option--->I18N (Activate Multibyte Function Support)
And then try to logon in SAP and use your transaction.
I think you will not be able to see in print preview stage just take a print out and then check.

Problem with chinese character for dot matrix epson LQ-1600K III

Hi All,
I really runs out of idea about my problem now. The problem is about Print Chinese character to dot matrix printer (Epson LQ-1600K III). I tried to so many device type to solve this issue, looks like the only device type can be use are CNSAPWIN and CNEPSON with CNSONG font type. The others if I print to the printer, the chinese character became # (although in the print preview it`s okay and display correctly).
Here is the bottleneck if I use CNEPSON:
- if I have 2 window at the left and right position, if the left window has chinese character, the right window automatically shift right about 1.5 CM, which is damn weird!!! Can somebody help me
- I tried so many ways to adjust the line size for my detail window (to cater positioning at pre-printed boxes), but looks the font size always become 10pt and line size cannot be adjustable (based on smartstyle).BUT if I used device type epescp2, it can be done!
Here is the bottleneck if I use CNSAPWIN:
- I need to create format type in windows and SAP (SPAD). and every PC that use this printer, must define the Paper size ( China Special paper size 12inch)
- I also think this is not a good idea because as I far as I know this is not the correct way..
Therefore, if somebody has experience about printer chinese character to dot matrix for Smartform and sapscript..please kindly help me give some advice.
Do I use the wrong device type?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Willy

Hi friends , we are using the same model ....
Are you using the chinese version operation system ? because we can print the chinese charaters without problem in LQ 1600KIII .....
We are using CNSAPWIN device type + Frondend printing access method ....

Problem in parsing date having Chinese character when dateformat is 'MMM'

I m calling jsp page using following code:
var ratewin = window.showModalDialog("Details.jsp?startDate="+startDate,window, dlgSettings );
In my javascript when checked by adding alerts I m getting correct values before passing to jsp,
alert("startDate:"+startDate);
In jsp page my code is like below:
String startDate = request.getParameter("startDate");
but here I m getting garbage values in month when the dateformat is 'MMM', because of which date parsing is failing.
This happens only Chinese character.
following 2 encoding are already in my jsp page,can anyone help to find solution?

I have even tried to read it as UTF-8 but still that's failing.

This is my actual code

Note: the jstring input parameters are the chinese character. If i print out the jstring, it will display dirty character, why? and how to fix it? and the PrintDrugReceipt will expected accept the chinese character and print it to the printer.
Thank you for you guys help.

you can't use char...have to use a wchar....and look around at the wide character handling function in C/C++.

Acrobat Reader cannot display Traditional Chinese Character correctly in 64 bit Windows 7

Hi,
I get a pdf file cannot display chinese character properly in Windows 7 64 bit but Windows XP 32 bit. I did uninstall and re-install Reader 9.4.3 and 10.0.1 with and without Traditional Fonts patch in the 64 bit machine but no luck. Does anyone have a solution for this?
Thanks in advance.

I run Acrobat 9.3.3 on my Windows 7 Pro 64-bit system with no problems. Perhaps you should make sure you have all of Acrobat 9's maintenance installed.

GUI Download Chinese Character to Excel gibberish character

Hi Experts,
I'm facing a problem where I'm using FM gui_download to save Chinese Character into Excel file.
Upon double click to open the excel file, funny character shows up.
But if I were to open the same file using a blank Ms Excel application (Go to File->Open->choose file),
Excel will prompt me to select a proper encoding (GB2312 in this case), and the Chinese character can be seen thereafter.
But, my user doesn't want to go through this.
I've browsed through the forum and someone has posted about this before and it's unanswered.

GUI_DOWNLOAD give 2 bytes for each chinese character - I need fixed length

Due to the Unicode system takes each Chinese character as a byte, the field(10) can take 10 Chinese Characters, not like before only 5 characters allowed.
The problem is when the data is downloaded to a txt file. Some records contains only Western Europe charactes and will fill 10 bytes in the output file and other records contains only Chinese characters and will fill up 20 bytes in the output file.
The data is exported for a system that can upload chinese characters, but only allow fixed record length file (always 10 bytes).
In other words: the records with Western Europe characters should contain 10 characters = 10 bytes but the records with Chinese characters should only contain 5 characters = 10 bytes.
Anyone who can solve this, thanks in advance.

Hi Thomas,
Now I understand.
Pl. check the class CL_ABAP_CONV_X2X_CE.
May it can help u.
Here is it's documentation.
CL CL_ABAP_CONV_X2X_CE
Short Text
Code Page and Endian Conversion Between External Formats
Functionality
Instances of the class CL_ABAP_CONV_X2X_CE allow you to convert text data between different character sets and numeric data between different number formats (byte order).
Using the class corresponds to transforming data from a binary input stream to a binary output stream: The data objects are read from the input buffer sequentially and written to an output buffer.
The class methods are normally used as follows:
CL_ABAP_CONV_X2X_CE=>CREATE
This creates a conversion instance. Among other options, you can specify the following as parameters: The input buffer (that is the binary string that contains the data to be read), the character format at used in the input buffer, the byte order used in the input buffer, the character format to be used in the output buffer, or the byte order to be used in the output buffer.
CONVERT_C, CONVERT_...
This converts the data. Calling this method several times consecutively allows you to read data from the input buffer sequentially and add it to the end of the output buffer.
GET_OUT_BUFFER
This gets the output buffer, making it available for further processing (such as writing to a file, sending using RFC).
RESET
This allows you to reset individual attributes of the conversion instance. (This method is especially designed for restarting on a new input buffer and deleting the output buffer while retaining the remaining attributes.)
Relationships
CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE
Converting Binary Data into ABAP Data Objects
CL_ABAP_CONV_OUT_CE
Converting ABAP Data Objects to a Binary Format.
CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES
Various Attributes and Methods for Character Sets and Byte Order
Example
In the following example, UTF-8 texts are converted to the codepage 1100 (Latin-1) and numbers are converted from little-endian to big-endian format:
DATA:
in_buffer TYPE XSTRING,
out_buffer TYPE XSTRING,
conv TYPE REF TO cl_abap_conv_x2x_ce.
in_buffer = '414220C3B602010000'.
conv = cl_abap_conv_x2x_ce=>create(
         in_encoding = 'UTF-8'
         in_endian = 'L'
         out_encoding = '1100'
         out_endian = 'B'
         input = in_buffer
CALL METHOD conv->convert_c( n = 5 ).
CALL METHOD conv->convert_i( ).
out_buffer = conv->get_out_buffer( ).
The content of the in_buffer variable is made up of 5 bytes (hexadecimal "414220C3B6"), which represent 4 UTF-8 characters (A, B, SPACE, o-Umlaut), and 4 bytes (hexadecimal "02010000"), which represent the value 258 in little-endian format. This data is converted and the out_buffer variable now contains the hexadecimal string "414220F600000102". It is made up of:
4 bytes (hexadecimal "414220F6"), which represent the above 4 characters in codepage 1100 (ISO-8859-1). Note that the length specification n = 5 refers to the number of elementary characters to be converted. For multi-byte codepages like UTF-8 this means that the multi-byte character "C3B6" is counted in length 2.
4 Bytes (hexadecimal "00000102"), which represent the value 258 in big-endian format.
If you have the desired byte order in the old format as expected by TRANSLATE ... NUMBER FORMAT (as an N(4) value), you can proceed as follows:
TYPE-POOLS: ABAP.
CLASS cl_abap_char_utilities DEFINITION LOAD.
DATA:
in_number_format(4) TYPE N VALUE '0101',
out_number_format(4) TYPE N VALUE '0000'.
DATA:
in_endian TYPE ABAP_ENDIAN,
out_endian TYPE ABAP_ENDIAN,
conv TYPE REF TO cl_abap_conv_x2x_ce..
in_endian = cl_abap_char_utilities=>number_format_to_endian(
               in_number_format
out_endian = cl_abap_char_utilities=>number_format_to_endian(
               out_number_format
conv = cl_abap_conv_x2x_ce=>create(
         in_encoding = 'UTF-8'
         in_endian = in_endian
         out_encoding = '1100'
         out_endian = out_endian
         input = in_buffer
Notes
For details refer to the documentation for the individual methods.

How to put Chinese character in jar file by java.util.jar.Manifest?

Now I want to develop a simple package tool which can modify some property in manifest.mf of jar files,but the Manifest class's putValue method only can correctly save English character.why?
And how can I put Chinese character?
the code is:
Attributes ab = mf.getMainAttributes();
ab.putValue("agent-Name", agent);

Attribute values can contain any character and it will be UTF-8 encoded when written to the manifest, according to Javadoc.
What makes you think that this mechanism fails? What do you see instead of the Chinese character? And what tool/editor/program you use to see it? I did not try myself, but according to the Javadoc there should be no problem.
