CS5.5 "also include these characters" field shows Chinese as squares

We're having problems with embedding Chinese characters via the "also include these characters" field. It works properly in other computers with CS5 and earlier Flash versions we have used, but in CS5.5 (on one new computer with it on Windows 7) copy-pasting Chinese to this field shows the pasted characters as squares in the field.
Even the font name below the field shows Chinese characters as squares.
Any idea what the problem could be?

Ok fixed thanks to your advice, Kenneth.
I researched unicode & mysql and eventually found this page which got everything up and running properly: http://blog.al-aqel.com/programming/fix-and-store-unicode-in-mysql-php/
As you said, set the character codes and collations in mysql to "utf8_general_ci" including server, database, tables & fields.
Also needed was the addition of "mysql_set_charset('utf8');" to my PHP pages that accessed server. This was in addition to setting the charset to UTF-8 in the page's meta tags.
Brilliant! Now have working simplified Chinese in my PHP pages, forms and MySQL database.
Thanks again and hope this might help other people having similar problems.

  • RH10 WebHelp includes special characters in 508 compliant search

    I am converting a RoboHelp 5 WebHelp project to RoboHelp 10 WebHelp and the project uses 508 compliant output.  When I click on the search tab I see special characters like $, %, !, #, etc. showing up as search words.  I have tried adding the characters to the Stop Words list and generating the output again but the special characters still show up.  Is there a way to suppress these characters from showing up in search?  The characters do not show up in the RoboHelp 5 508 output.  I am using IE8.

    Hi there
    Section 508 deals with accessibility. This means screen readers for blind or visually impaired individuals. They mouse over areas and the screen reader reads back to them what the mouse is hovering. So instead of a field where you type, they navigate search in a different manner. By clicking links that eventually lead to the term.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Arabic and Chinese characters are showing ??? in PDF

    Hi
    I hava an application which calls BI publisher API to generate PDF file from rtf temlate and xml input. It is fine for English contents. But the Arabic or Chinese characters are showing ??? in PDF. If I use BI publisher Desktop to load the xml and generate pdf file, it shows correct Arabic/Chinese Characters in PDF. I also copied ALBANWTJ.ttf file to my application JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/fonts/ folder. But it still doesn't work. Anyone can help me with this?
    Thanks a lot!

    I created xdo.cfg and put it in my JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ folder. the file is configured as below:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <config version="1.0.0" xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oxp/config/">
    <properties>
    <property name="system-temp-dir">/tmp</property>
    </properties>
    <fonts>
    <font family="Default" style="normal" weight="normal">
    <truetype path="/fonts/ALBANWTJ.ttf"/>
    </font>
    </fonts>
    </config>
    But now I'm getting this error while generating pdf file:
    Adobe Reader could not open 'xxx.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
    Is there anything wrong in my xdo.cfg?
    Thanks!

  • When calling report from forms, only html format report can show chinese characters

    To all experts,
    When I run report by calling run_report_object() in forms, only html format can show chinese characters. If I choose pdf format, garbage characters were shown instead of chinese characters. My settings on server are as follows:
    NLS_LANG=TRADITIONAL CHINESE_HONG KONG.UTF8
    FORMS60_REPFORMAT=PDF
    Do you know why? I hope to print report in PDF format as PDF turned out to be more regular in format. Is there any additional settings required?
    May experts here broaden my mind?

    You have two different ways of generating Japanese PDF files from Reoprts. One is font aliasing and the other is font subsetting.
    <font aliasing>
    You will need to have the following entries in uiprint.txt (example).
    [ PDF ]
    .....JA16SJIS = "KozMinPro-Regular-Acro"
    "MS UI Gothic".....JA16SJIS = "KozMinPro-Regular-Acro"
    You may need to download and install Japanese Font Pack from Adobe's web site (if your Acrobat is non-Japanese version).
    <font subsetting>
    You will need to add C:\WINNT\Fonts (or wherever your TTF/TTC fonts are installed) to your REPORTS_PATH.
    You will also need to have the following entries in uiprint.txt (example).
    [ PDF:Subset ]
    "Andale Duospace WT J" = "Aduoj.ttf"
    "Albany WT J"="AlbanWTJ.ttf"
    "MS UI Gothic" = "msgothic.ttc"

    Hello, I would like to create and print a contact sheet in Photoshop elements 13. I have managed to do that but I need desperately to be able to place a title on the contact sheet. Also, each photograph has as name and I need these names to show up on the contact sheet when I print them out. If this is not possible I will just return my product. I have an old old version of Photoshop that will do just that but with this new elements I cannot find it.

    What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 13/13.1 running on?
    Assuming Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit, open the Elements Organizer 13/13.1 and select your media
    for the Contact Sheet.
    Go to File Menu/Print and set up the Print Dialog for Contact Sheet.
    If you used Edit Menu/Add Caption beforehand, I can see how you can get
    Date
    Caption
    Filename
    under the Print dialog's "4" and even a page number if you have more than 1 page. But, I am not seeing
    where you are going to get a title for each of the contact sheets.
    Any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
    You can get into the Elements Organizer 13/13.1 from the Welcome Screen or by clicking on the Organizer Tab
    at the bottom of the Expert workspace in the Premiere Elements 13/13.1 Editor.

    Assuming that you are using version 6i, try using Oracle9i Reports it has support for multi-byte in PDF.
    By the way, Reports questions will get better response if you send them on the reports forum.

  • "Add a column to show each of these additional fields: " doesn't support person feild

    "Add a column to show each of these additional fields: "  doesn't support person feild
    I've seen that its not supported in 2010 version of sharepoint but I was hoping in the last 3 years  its been fixed for the 2013 
    Any idea if this will be fixed or not?

    Given that it hasn't been fixed so far, i doubt it.
    The reason it doesn't work for some columns is that they themselves  are a form of lookup column. I suspect MS have disallowed it to prevent looping, where a lookup column eventually starts trying to look up on itself. There may be other technical challenges
    to making a double hop lookup column.

    Hello,
    I have opened artwork created by someone else. We are both using Illustrator CC. This particular issue shows up in Illustrator CS5 also. Issue: in the links pallet a weird gray gradient keeps replicating. I cannot identify it in the artwork. It is an embedded image. I cannot get rid of it and it keeps reproducing. WHAT is it and why can't I delete it?
    Thanks for any help. Ingrid

    Hello, yes it is reproducing over and over. I look in the original artwork and there are 28. I did not save over the original art but “save as”. Worked on the new file for a while and now there are 47!. I copied all the content to a new blank, all colors removed, file and there they were. If I click on them can’t relink, won’t show a bounding box, no frame in wire-frame, no stray points. they are ghosts. Here is an image, to give a better visual of how they look in links panel. Any ideas? Thanks, Ingrid

  • Safari doesn't show Chinese characters in a specific site?

    Hi all,
    I've just found a weird thing that Safari doesn't show Chinese character in this site.
    http://blog.bcxstudio.net/
    It works in Firefox (Mac and win), Chrome (mac and win), IE 6-9, Safari for Mac, but not Safari on Windows.
    However, when I browse other websites like Yahoo hong kong and Apple HK. There is no problem.
    http://hk.news.yahoo.com
    http://www.apple.com/hk
    My best guess is that the site may uses some fonts (CSS3 @font-face?) that safari did not support.
    Anyone knows what happened?
    I am on Windows 7, Safari for Windows 5.0.2 (7533.18.5)
    Thank you!

    That's a bit odd ... I'm getting the opposite effect at the moment on my XP SP3. I'm not seeing the text in IE 8 (I don't think I've got the International character sets installed for my XP Pro), but they show fine in my Safari 5.0.2.
    Are you still seeing the effect at your end at the moment, b?

  • Characters not showing up in Captivate 6

    Greetings, I'm relatively new to Captivate but not the Adobe Creative Suite and am working on a project. I was elated to hear that Characters are automatically included (a few at least) and you don't have to purchase them separately. However, upon attempting to Insert -> Characters, I'm left waiting. No response from the system and no dialogue box shows up. I can Insert -> Interaction and it works perfectly (for the most part). Is there something I need to do to enable Characters in a project?

    I did not download the characters, I mistakingly assumed they were included after reading how they were included lol. Moving forward, I searched around and could not find where to download them. I believe this was a trial install that was upgraded to full (work machine) but I can reinstall it, or whatever the process needs to be to make this work. I'd really like to utilize these characters for upcoming projects. Any advice on how to proceed?
    EDIT: Found files to download via a blog's instructions. Will attempt to install and get working later. Also downloaded the very big NeoSpeech Text-To-Speech files so we'll see if that works out.
    "Note: If you don't have many characters, visit the Adobe Captivate trial download page and download the eLearning Assets. Once the assets are installed, you will find that several posed characters have been added to Captivate."
    Thanks for your assistance in the matter Lily. Will update on progress.
