Excel spreadsheet export doesn't show chinese characters properly

Hi all.
I've created the excel export option following the steps in Bex's book, and it's working fine, but I'm not able to export results in UTF8. I'm facing problems when the dDoctitle for some documents is in chinese.
So far, I've tried adding the charset <$setContentType("text/csv; *charset=UTF-8*")$>, but it doesn't seem to work. I've also tried setting different content types and charsets without success.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, I have it and I can see other chinese websites. Moreover, in Content Server, I see correctly (in chinese) the dDoctitle field i'm trying to export. In fact I've written some titles in chinese just to test it. It's in the csv file where I see the strange characters.
Thanks.

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?

When calling report in forms, only html format 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?
Richard

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.

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"

Itunes can not show chinese characters.

My Itunes can not show chinese characters, they are all blocks, while I can re-type in the chinese name of the song in Itunes, then it works.
The same as Japanese, some time it can show Jap, while sometime can not. How can I solve this problem. My computer is Mac system

Do you have such problem only with Chinese characters?

How to show chinese characters in Itunes.

I downloaded Itunes for windows XP on my work desktop but it doesn't show the chinese characters instead it shows boxes. I have Itunes on my Powerbook and I didn't have to do anything special and the chinese characters are shown.

In WinXP, you do need to do something special to enable Chinese support. See this page:

AWT PopupMenu not showing Chinese Characters

Hi all.
I have a mostly Swing application that must display English and Chinese characters. Changing the Swing components has been easy, however I am having problems changing an AWT PopupMenu that i use in combination with the new TrayIcon features of Java 6. TrayIcon requires an awt PopupMenu, so i cannot use a Swing JPopupMenu even if i wanted to.
The problem is that instead of the correct words i am getting just empty squares, which seem to indicate a problem. I have tried setting the font to "SimSun" but this made no difference.
I also tried this hack to use a JPopupMenu with Trayicon
http://weblogs.java.net/blog/ixmal/archive/2006/05/using_jpopupmen.html
This correctly showed the Chinese characters but it threw up lots of 'class cast' exceptions.
My ideal solution would be to fix the problems with PopupMenu as apposed to fixing the class cast exception errors with the JPopMenu hack.
Would anyone know why i cannot display Chinese characters in a AWT PopupMenu? have i missed something?
Thanks
Steven

}this is working in my machine. i have used JLabel and Label both to just show you the difference. there is a flickering bug because of rendering, i hope you can manage that.

Showing Chinese characters being fetched from database.

Hi,
I have an application (using JSP and Servlets) that needs to show the data fetched from an nVarchar field from an Oracle database. When the data being read includes chinese characters, they are shown as "?". The encoding shown on the client browser is "ISO-8859-1", which clearly needs to be UTF-8.
Can anybody guide me as to the settings required on the server to change the encoding and ensure that the pages are sent out properly.
Regards,
Manish.

First, check to make sure that the strings sent to the browser are correctly encoded. Do so by manually switching the browser's encoding to the correct value. If you see the correct string, then set the charset to UTF-8. Some thing like this:
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8

ok,i'm trying but now to test my source i've to find
the readChar in BufferedWriter,i've see that in
BufferedWriter readChar is read() but this don't
work,the editor gives me an error that says"found int
required char" possible loss of precision.I can't
read the javadocs corretly,i'm a newbie.
I assume that you mean BufferedReader and that your use of BufferedWriter is a typo.
From your first post I assumed you were reading and writing lines not the individual characters but no problem. Yes, one should use the read() method to read an individual character and if the value returned is not -1 (which signifies end of file) then it can be cast to a char using
char ch = (char)br.read();

PO Print Output- Doesn't print Chinese characters

Hi,
There is customized t-code ZME9F similar to ME9F with an added feature of e-mail to vendor.
When we process PO through ZME9F, the PO converted to PDF is not printing the chinese characters.when 'Display message' is clicked also it is fine.The print preview of the PO is fine.
Can you please let me know what is the reason for not printing chinese characters in the conversion of PDF?
Thanks in Advance,
Sowmya

Hi Soumya,
Please check note 903157.
Also the notes 812821, 83502, 776507 are helpful.

I can't get iTunes (Mac OS X) to display chinese characters properly...

Hi, I suppose it is because of the ID3 Tags being not properly read by itunes right? cos my Mac can display chinese no problems, specially it can display the mp3 files with it's chinese title in the Mac OS X Mountain Lion Finder no problem!
I have tried somethning called the "Unicode Rewriter", tried converting using Source Encoding as : Big5, Big5_HKSCS, Cp9xx, EUC_TW, ISO2022CN_CNS, MS950... everthing they had for Chinese Traditional Encoding... They all showed up in itunes in Chinese Characters after converison, but it is not the correct word... somethimes it changed even into Korean!
I read about ID3Mod2 but it costs 8US$, and I am not even sure it will work!?While the Unicode Rewriter is Free! but i dont understand why it didn't work though... it seem to be doing what it is suppose to, but just the encoding is maybe not the right one!?
Anybody experiencing the same type of problem and found a solution?
Thanks for your help

Oh I forgot to mention that I'm using a straight cable as resource to the network. I do have access to the internet and some other networkdisks, But I can't access the main one, which is described above.
Thanks!

BO Publication - PDF format doesn't show Chinese/Japanese language characte

Hi All,
When I try to Publish a report to PDF the Chinese/Japanese language characters disappear. Same report when published as Excel shows all the language characters.
Any suggestions to resolve the issue?
Thanks,
Hema

I am not expert in these, but please check out the following things and see whether it would solve your issue. (All these changes can be easily rolled back in case I'm wrong :). So make note of what you do)
As per your httpd.conf, you have chosen an automatic configuration of Apache by OWCI installer itself. What it does is create an imageserver.conf file in a separate directory and these settings will be included in your httpd.conf as you can see in the first line: Include "C:/bea/alui/plumtreeconf/".
If you check the imageserver.conf in that location, you would find a line like: Alias /imageserver/ "C:/bea/alui/ptimages/imageserver/". This aliases the original path "C:/bea/alui/ptimages/imageserver/" to /imageserver"
To confirm whether this is done right, check the following:
1. Acces 'http://<server ip / server name / localhost >/' from your browser
This should display the Apache home page (as per your httpd.conf, it uses the default port 80; so no port number required)
2. Access 'http://<server ip>/imageserver/' from your browser
This should display the directory structure (if its not disabled) inside your 'C:/bea/alui/ptimages/imageserver/' folder. Also confirm that all the subfolders are accessible.
3. If all the above is right, it means that your imageserver settings are right. Please check your portalconfig.xml for the correct settings: For example, <setting name="HTTPPort"> should be 7001 in your case. If its something else, change it and restart Weblogic for the settings to take effect.
Hope this helps.

Terminal.app doesn't show complex characters

Terminal only shows blanks instead of complex characters. This happens both for input as well as program output.
Screenshot:
!http://www.abload.de/img/sl_termuada.jpg!

I do too have this problem. I did a clean install of Snow Leopard and noted something :
Just after the install, it worked perfectly well, caracter showed up in the terminal and everywhere. I just did a reboot (and nothing else) and after that, it's wrecked again !
No input or output in terminal and every others applications is fine. There is the same issue with another the macbook pro (I have a macbook aluminium)....
If someone has any solution or if this is a bug for Apple, that would be great to have any solution because currently, i can't go inside my folder through ssh... I have to use iTerm which doesn't have this problem.
