English Font In Bi-Lingual Forms

Hi All,
We are creating Bi Lingual (Arabic and English) Smart forms with logon language as Arabic.
For English Text we are using Styles with character format of TIMES font.
But in output, English text is being displayed in COURIER Font.
We tried with Helve Font also, but output is always COURIER.
But when we create FORM with logon language as English. All fonts are working fine.
But as the requirement includes arabic to be printed Right to Left, We need to create form in Arbic language.
Every thing is working fine apart from FONT.
Thanks in advance...
Regards
Ravi

Hello Rebecca,
I have a little different question on the same issue.
Our site is in Hebrew, but some sites' names are in English.
I used this method for breadcrumbs:


This method works great for the Hebrew sites and shown like this:
Hebrew name level 3 < Hebrew
name level 2 < Root
in Hebrew name
But for the English names it is like this:
English name level 2 > English
name level 3 < Root in Hebrew name
As you can see, it is going left to right in the English names including the angle brackets,
instead of continuing the path in the right direction.
Is there any property that tells this controller to avoid this behavior?
I appreciate your answer,
Shiri

How can I change LOV Font in a parameter form?

Dear friends
I made a report with reports 6i and in it's parameter form I placed an LOV based on a query and I want to change it's font, but it doesn't change anyway. I think it's default font is System.
The problem is getting more serious when I use arabic windows, because it shows arabic characters as english extended characters and make the LOV unreadable. I would be so glad if someone could help me.
Thanx.
B. sadati

Hi,
I think changing the font in the Paramater form for the LOV is not possible. Long back there was
an enhancement request filed for this , i don't think that is implemented yet.
Prabably you have to have as a workaround is make a pramform out of Oracle Forms.
cheers :-))

How do I change the color of font in a fillable form in Adobe Reader? How can I check if the writer of the document has given permission to edit color and not just add text?

How do I change the color of font in a fillable form in Adobe Reader? How can I check if the writer of the document has given permission to edit color and not just add text? Please help! I'm technologically challenged.

Most forms (99% or more) are created for simple text input, where you cannot change anything.
The creator of the form could allow Rich Text input (which allows you to change font, text size, color, etc.), but frankly I have never seen such a form, and I wouldn't know how they look. But I'm sure they would show some kind of controls to alter the text appearance.

How To Install Urdu Fonts and Use in Form

How to work with urdu fonts and use in form ...

Do you have a problem with it or are you looking for a guide?
If the latter is the case you should probably take a look at Note 314074.1. It talks about character sets in Forms. You can use UTF-8 in Forms and in the database. I assume urdu characters are in utf-8?
There was a problem with urdu in win2k some time back. Is that what you are using?

Font size and user form

Hello,
I'd like to know if somebody find a solution for the font size issue on user form.
since BO 2005, the user can change the font size. the application will format all the controls of form with the good size.
However, the layout does not follow very well for user form.
If the font size is changed while a user form is open, the aplication will reformat it perfectly, the controls are bigger, and the distance between the controls are ok
But when the user form is open again, it keeps the distance and control size of the XML file but change the font size, so the layout is very bad, sometime the static text or the caption could not be read, so it's not possible to use the form as is.
I use XML to create form, I haven't try by code, but in my case, I can't use code because there are a lot of controls in the form.
Any idea if it's possible to call the Business One procedure to resize the form and its control (not only the font) ?
Thanks you

Try resetting the FontSize of all items (and columns) to the one you used for the design after loading the form.
I use a simple loop over all items and an inner loop for matrixes and grids to set the font size in their columns.
Now users can have a larger font, but the added forms will use the original design's font size.
This approach has some drawbacks:
- Added forms use a different font size
- Some of the controls will still get their size based on the system default font size
(checkboxes, drill-down arrays, headercolumns, perhaps more?).
- Focused item is not resized by this (so far I have been able to work around this).
- Changing the font size while the form is open, will break the design as the
font size does not change, but the control sizes do.
This is not an ideal solution, but it might give some help, until a better one presents itself.
If the users don't use a dramatically different font size, my form design work quite ok,
even with the drawbacks or at least it is better than nothing. It is a good idea to test
the form with different font sizes to make it more flexible.

Olde English font not displaying correctly

I'm trying to use and Olde English font. When I use it in TextEdit, works great but when I use it in Pages, it is being substituted with something else.
I have screenshots of each if that helps.
Thoughts?

Off the cuff, bets are you have a broken SFNT Spline Font file, that is, somebody's been at the tables that lay out the type in the line. Trying to figure out what's the matter with a font file from an unknown source without being able to determine the state of the tables in the font file is tough troubleshooting. In general, type should be treated as any other application program - you buy a licence, you get support, you get upgrades with bug fixes and beautiful new features. Would that it worked that way.

Non english fonts

I have an iBook G4 running 10.4.8. For some reason, it will not print non-English fonts. As an example, I have New Peninim installed. Fontbook recognizes and verifies it. When I set that as the font in Textedit, it shows the text I type in but it does not show it in that font, which is Hebrew, but shows it in an English Font style. It does the same thing with most any other non-English font except for Cyrillic fonts, which it will show. Any ideas?

How should I organize and disable non-english fonts.

I'm a graphic designer and I'm having trouble organizing all of these random hebrew/japanese/chinese fonts that I never use.
I don't want to screw up my system, but I also don't want to scroll through 200 fonts every time I want to find one.
Is there an easy way I can find all of the non-english fonts and disable them?
Fontbook freezes and crashes all the time for me, so I've been using Suitcase Fusion free trial for a few days and disabled a bunch of fonts through it. Though, it prevents me from disabling anything considered a "System Font" which is fine, only having the necesccary non-english fonts is okay, I just don't want 75% of my font list in my adobe applications to be un-usable fonts.
I guess my problem is that by default, some fonts are pre-disabled on OS X, and should I run into problems, I want a way to easily re-enable these fonts if I need to. Also, since I've disabled so many fonts, I dont' know what ones are enabled by default. How would I go about restoring all of my fonts?
I think it'd be nice to be able to sort all of the fonts by what language they're in. But I don't know what language the font is because I don't speak those languages. Another problem is that you can't organize local fonts in Suitcase. I think using fontbook would be my best option for this, before switching back to Suitcase for regular use, but I still have the problem of restoring my already disabled fonts correctly, and figuring out which fonts are in what language. Could anyone help me out with this?

PS Here is a rough list of fonts provided with OS X intended for use only with particular non-Latin scripts:
Arabic : al bayan, baghdad, damascus, decotype naskh, geeza pro, nadeem
Hebrew: arial hebrew, corsiva hebrew, new peninim, raanana
Thai: ayuthaya, krungthep, sathu, silom, thonburi
Lao : lao
Tibetan: kailasa, kokonor
Korean: gungseo, headline, nanum, pcmyungjo, pilgi, applegothic, applemyungjo
Chinese: biaukai, gb18030, hei, heiti, kai, lihei, lisong, stfangsong, stheiti, stkaiti, stsong, apple ligothic, baoli, kaiti, lantinghei, libian, songti, wawati, weibei, xingkai, yuanti, yuppi
Japanese: hiragino
Armenian: mshtakan
Ethiopic: kefa
Indic: devanagari, bangla, gurmukhi, gujarati, oriya, tamil, telugu, kannada, malayalam, sinhala,
Myanmar : myanmar
Cherokee : plantagenet cherokee
UCAS : euphemia
Khmer : khmer

Chinese Font and English Font in one paragraph

I am working on a book translated from English into Traditional Chinese, using Indesign CS4 under WinXP sp3. In many cases I need to put English words among Chinese Characters. I set up Character Styles to apply the English Fonts I want, then doing word by word manually. Besides of the slow speed, it's easy to make mistakes doing by hand. I desperatly want to find a way to set up PARAGRAPH STYLES that I can specify both Chinese and English Fonts in a same paragraph stye. Will be very apprecited if someone please teach me how to get it.

Yes it can be done in CS4. I am doing a billingual book in Chinese and English. What you can do is select the paragraph,
1. Open "Paragraph styles", double click - "Basic Paragraph", Select "Basic Character Formats", Change the Font to a Chinese Character (e.g. SimSun and the size is 12)
2. Don't close the box, then select "GREP Style", select "New GREP Style", click "Apply Styel" and Select "New Character Style"
3. a New Character Style Box comes up, then select "Basic Character Formats" and select the English Character (e.g. Arial and the size is 14), then OK.
4. Will back to Paragraph styles box, then click "To Text" and select "Wildcards" and select "Any Letters", then click OK. It is done!!
I tried many ways before, and how I am getting used to it. Remember, if you have many different styles need to be set, (for example: Title (with both languages), contents (with both languages), you can set different Character's Name for different purposes when the "New Character Style" box comes up.

Getting font problem for printing form in Production server.

Hi experts,
We are getting problem while printing form in production server. As it gives no problem in Quality server while printing the same, the print is fine. We applied packages from 26 to 28 level for version 4.7. When we moved this packages to Production server we got problem of font while printing the form for some of scripts. But the surprise is that in Quality server the print is fine, no problem at all.
Can any one suggest me on this issue.
Regards,
Sagun Desai.

Hi sagun,
Please check the spool request generated on production server using tcode SP01.
Goto dispaly spool request and check the spool.If the spool too displays your script correctly then there is a problem in printer connected to production server.
The printer connected to the test server might be rightly conffigured to print the output.Please check the settings of the printer connected to the production.
Hope this helps.

I want to display the both Hindi and English font in single text object

hi...
my problem is i want to display both Hindi and English font together in a single text object...
the data is retrieved from Database in detail section...
is there any font which supports both Hindi and English font for single text object...
help me...

hi Vinayak,
If I understand your requirement, your field has full length word.
Now we should split this field into 3 parts.
Please Create 3 formulas.
Part1
stringvar s1;
s1:= left({field}, InStr({field},"("));
s1;
Part2
stringvar s2;
s2:= Mid({field},InStr({field},"(")+1 ,InStr({field},")")- InStr({field},"(") -1);
s2;
Part3
stringvar s3;
s3:= Mid({field}, InStr({field},")"));
s3;
Now Place a Text box in required section. Drag these 3 formula fields into the Text box.
Right Click the Part2 and apply mangal font.
Right Click the Part1, Part 3 and apply Arial font.
I have tried this and implemented successfully. Please let me know if you still face any issue.
Regards,
Vamsee

Multi lingual form

Hi all,
Can you give me an idea on how to make a multi-lingual form. Lets say I have a form and I want it to accept Chinese language or convert it into a Chinese language. How will I do this stuff? Because we are developing a system here which will be eventually used in Hongkong.
Thanks
null

Hi,
In the development state, there is no need to change the NLS_LANGUAGE for database server and developer. But when you install the database server and developer runtime for your users, you must set the NLS_LANGUAGE to traditional Chinese. The database service may failed if you change the NLS_LANGUAGE after installation.

English font "Ostrich" not visible in german pages.

Hi
I have a MacBook Pro, August 2013 and yosemite and latest version of pages.
I have installed a free font named "Ostrich Sans". But in pages this font and a lot of others from the font collection are not visible, I suppose because they are english fonts. How can I activate these fonts?
Thanks a lot!!
Simone

There is no German Pages they are all the same Pages, and there is no such thing as an "English" font.
It either has the Latin letters, which it does, or it has a non-Latin set and even then practically all non-Latin fonts include the Latin.
Look further down the list, Apple has a couple of different categories for the fonts. Also since Ostrich is an extremely thin font it can be hard to see in the list. I see it in all versions of Pages.
Do you see Ostrich in TextEdit?
