English and Chinese characters in a FIle

Hi,
I need to read a file from application server and create a idoc with that data. But, the File may sometime contain a mix of English and Chinese Characters as below.
File at application server is as below format:
#####û´##û³##úÊ##þÎñÓ#######MR###õ###########ø°####ò²#####7588##7590##200000
The file has six fix fields separated by ''. But when I move these fields in six variables, in 4th variable the value comes as '#õ###########ø°####ò²#####7588##7590##' instead of only '#õ' (it takes value of 5th variable also) and then the rest of fields get misplaced.
Any idea about this problem?
Please note that My system in SAP 4.6.
Thanks.

Hi..
Probably is caused by the 2bytes consume of chinese characters, have you tried to temporarly delete those chinese characters from the input data and see what happen?..
Hope to help...

Entering and Displaying English and chinese

We are running Oracle 8i on a w2k server and have w2k clients
configured to enter and view English, Simplified and Traditonal
Chinese. Oracle is setup with UTF8. We atn to be able to enter
and display both english and chinese characters simultaneous in
the forms as we enter data as well as in reports. Everything is
done in Oracle forms/reports 6. I have tried various nls
settings but nothing seems to work to provide both entry and
viewing of the characters as well as providing properly
formatted reports.

I also have a customer that is having a similar problem. The
general issue is that the customer wants to use Win2000 in
English but within a Forms 6.0 application fill in certain fields
with Simplified Chinese characters. I think they had difficulty
getting it to work even if the default is all Chinese, that is
both the Windows locale default and the NLS settings. We're
mostly beyond that but the real goal is to allow the user to run
in English (but with language supplement support available for
Chinese) then when the user hits the appropriate fields in the
application he toggles to a Chinese characters to input. So we
can't seem to find the right combination of NLS settings,
patches, etc. that would support this.
At one point we apparently were able to have the application
accepting the Chinese characters but to do so meant that many of
the Oracle Forms default menu items, dialogue buttons and
message bar were displayed in Chinese.
The simplest explanation: allow to run Forms 6 app in English.
Allow storing of Chinese characters into fields at the will
of the user. Database stores characters correctly. Application
(Forms) echoes characters correctly , not ???? or boxes .
We need to have a definite answer to the customer within 2 weeks
meaning we either have a fix now for their current ISO 9000
certified application based on Forms 6.0 or we know through
testing that it absolutely will work when we rev. the application
to Forms 6i. The latter revision of their application is not due
to ship until mid-2002.
Any suggestions or referrals are appreciated.

Universal charset for english and chinese

Hi,
Is there any universal charset for both english and chinese? I would like my portal to display both english and chinese characters and i understood that the default iPS charset is ISO-8859-1, we can change this to any charset, but this will be a global charset value. To change this value, i know i need to change at iwtPlatform and iwtUser. Any advise on this? Would like to know is there any universal character code to display english and chinese and if there is any, what is the code? Thanks a lot.

Evelyn,
You should be able to use UTF-8 or BIG-5 to display both Chinese and English.
NOTE: BIG-5 will not be able to display simplified chinese. For Simplified Chinese, you should use GB 2312-80.

How to make English and Chinese pdf files searchable?

I have scanned many A4 English and Chinese print-outs into pdf format. How to make these files searchable ? People mention about the OCR issue. Will the installation of Adobe make life easy and manageable?

I know Acrobat does Japanese OCR very well; I can only assume that it works for Chinese as well.
P.S. I just checked: Chinese (Simplified) and Chinese (Traditional) are both language selection options for OCR.

Using SQL*Loader to Load Russian and Chinese Characters

We are testing our new 11.2.0.1 database using Oracle Linux 6. We created the database using the AL32UTF8 NLS Character set. We have tried using sqlldr to insert a few records that contain Russian and Chinese characters as a test. We can not seem to get them into the database in the correct format. For example, we can see the correct characters in the file we are trying to load on the Linux server, but once we load them into a table in the database, some of the characters are not displayed correctly (using SQL*Developer to select them out).
We can set the values within a column on the table by inserting them into the table and then select them out and they are correect, so it appears the problem is not in the database, but in the way sqlldr inserts them. We have tried several settings on the Linux server to set the NLS_LANG environment to AMERICAN_AMERICA.AL32UTF8, AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8, etc. without success.
Can someone provide us with any guidance on this? Would really appreciate any advice as to what we are not getting here.
Thanks!!

The characterset of the database does not change the language used in your input data file. The character set of the datafile can be set up by using the NLS_LANG parameter or by specifying a SQL*Loader CHARACTERSET parameter. I suggest to move this question to the appropriate forum: Export/Import/SQL Loader & External Tables for closer topic alignment.

Hi,
Please maintain the translation in SE63 - Translation->Abap objects->Other Long texts->FS(Forms & Styles ->SSF.
Choose the target & source language & maintain the translation.
If suppose, the original language is in 'EN', then maintain the translation in chinesese.
Once it is maintained like this, then the forn will be displayed on log-in language by default.
Hope, I answered your qn.

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!

Having difficulty switching between English and Chinese

Hi!
I have a requirement to change the front panel strings (captions) from English to Chinese, at the click of a button.
The PC specs are: Windows 2000, MSBC enabled with an IME. LabVIEW 7.1 (Will eventually be using LabVIEW 8.20 - does this make it any easier?)
I have done a little research on the NI web page, and have tried the following knowledge base article:
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/conceptd.nsf/2d17d611efb58b22862567a9006ffe76/6d94f90fc9b93aad862568a7007...
What I need to know is what this article means by "translating the text". This is what I've tried thus far:
Export strings to a file.
Edit strings in an editor that supports Chinese.
Save file as text (should I save it as xml instead?)
Import Strings back into LabVIEW
All that gets displayed is "???", instead of Chinese characters.
Any suggestions?

"... change the front panel strings (captions) from English to Chinese, at the click of a button."
without scripting, no can do using the article you cited.
The solution is trivial but the implementation is not.
You will either have to update all of the captions or hide the captions and place string indicators where the captions would have been.

There's a little cartoon and chinese characters in my status bar that I didn't not put there and can't delete

I recently had my account smurfed,I think it's called-my email was attacked-sent a bunch of emails to friends as if from me---I changed password,etc-no other problems since-but I realized this morning that there's something in my status bar with chinese characters after it(the attack on my email was from Chinese source) and when I put my cursor over it-it doesn't give me any options-doesn't open...I suspect its from the same attacker---what is it? How can I get rid of it?

From Apple support, I found out this file is in the operating system folder. Apple support is satisfied that it's not a virus because a virus wouldn't be mixed with the operating system files. I only have familiarity with PCs and know that malware frequently disguises itself within the Windows operating system. Are there any out there who are adept with OS X 10.8.2? There must be someone. I mean, people code software for new Macs all the time. Anything would be helpfull: a book, an article--anything. I don't want to spend money on an antivirus program that may not even work and probably also slow down my computer. I went through all the major antivirus programs on my PCs. All of them allowed malware to get onto my computers. And what's worse, they couldn't delete the viruses. They would just give complicated instructions that involved manually editing the registry in Windows. The primary reason I bought a Mac is that I was told at a Mac retail store that I don't need an antivirus program; that the operating system is designed with built in barriers to malware. I thank anyone in advance for help.

Chromium 8 and Chinese characters

Chromium 8 can't upload any file with chinese characters in its filename. Anybody has the same problem? Hope that there are many Chinese users.
Thanks!

Maybe it's the website that doesn't accept Chinese filenames? What encoding are your files named in (probably GB, Big5, or UTF-8)? It works fine for me with UTF-8 and Gmail.

How do I remove spaces and special characters from the file name during rendering?

I understand that I can set LR_renamingTokensOn to true, but I would like to replace all spaces in the file name with an underscore and remove characters not in the range A-Z and 0-9. What's the easiest way to achieve this?

local photo = catalog:getTargetPhoto()
local sesn = LrExportSession {
    photosToExport = { photo },
    exportSettings = {
        -- ... (determine from export preset) - whatev you want, just be sure you set export directory: LR_export_destinationPathPrefix
        LR_tokens = "{{custom_token}}",
        LR_tokenCustomString = LrPathUtils.removeExtension( photo:getFormattedMetadata( 'fileName' ) ):gsub( "[ %c]", "" ) -- remove spaces and control characters
sesn:doExportOnNewTask()

ITSmobile and chinese characters under UNICODE

Hello,
we already use ITSmobile on our ECC6.4 EhP4.
Now we plan a roll-out of this process to China.
As far as i know it is enough to install and activate chinese language (simplified Chinese) to be able to log on in chinese and get all transactions with chinese characters.
Is this also valid for ITSmobile or do we have to take something else into account?
Best regards,
Alex

Hello Alex,
Make sure that you have the Chinese language installed on the mobile device. Also need to make sure that you have Chinese on your R/3 system, easiest way to test is to logon in Chinese (usually simplified Chinese for China).

Tomcat, Oracle 9i and Chinese Characters

Dear Group,
we are using an application based on oracle 9i and tomcat 5.0. I copied the "ojdbc14.jar" and "nls_charset12.jar" to my common/lib directory of Tomcat.
The application works fine until I insert chinese characters via the web form from our app. If I insert the chinese characters directly with the oracle enterprise console, it works.
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET is AL16UTF16
Any idea?
Thanks in advance
Ray

Are you inserting the Chinese characters into a VARCHAR2 column or into an NVARCHAR2 column?
What is your NLS_CHARACTERSET?
